I liked my job… The office was nice…I worked with nice people… I Like My Job begins with its protagonist facing the numbing realisation that her job is no longer challenging. From performance review to unwanted promotion we follow her ups and downs against a backdrop of petty office politics.But hers isn't a mundane every-day-is-the-same existence.Instead there are a series of quite unexpected characters and events. There is the omnipresent know-it-all cat fairy, willing to sympathise with her and stitch her up to her boss.Then there is the mysterious pineapple preening itself between the monitors, who hides a tale of email woe. People leave, people join, the company moves location, she is not-quite promoted. At each event she is torn between her fear of change and her understanding that there is nothing but change.At the same time the company she works for is also struggling to respond appropriately.Ultimately a strange and sobering sequence of events propels her to consider the impossible. At times charming, at times brutal, the minimal black and white line drawings of this graphic novel deftly uncover hidden emotions.The turn of an eyelash, the angle of a mouth are all enough to create an entire universe of feeling. Recently novelists like Joshua Ferris and Ed Park have brilliantly skewered the mixture of monotony and paranoia that is office life. In I Like My Job Sarah Herman performs a similar feat in a few wincingly funny words and pictures.
