The first in a series of humorous do’s and don’ts on how to find/keep love at work
In the past if one wanted to find someone one to hook up with you would go to the single bar or the club, where one would meet the most beautiful queen on the planet who
after a couple of dates maybe some sex, ok if you lucky lots of sex turns into
the wicked witch of the west for various reasons
your first mistake not knowing this one truth, despite what USHER says there is NO LOVE in the club.
So why work?
Let’s be honest most of us have no game, picking up a fine ass woman is hard “do you have the time ” or “can I buy you a drink”
is some tired shit that leads to you getting laugh at or you watch her drinking her drink as she dancing with the guy she’s gonna fuck tonight,
the rare cases when it does work just know those women are broomhildas in hiding.
picking a up a woman up at work allows you to ease yourself into a situation keeping it natural, no cheesy lines it’s hello for hello sake if you don’t want it to go past that it doesn’t.
If you cant make it as you, then please take your lame ass back to work because if your work ethic is as lame as the work you put in your love life dude you don’t work hard enough.
The one thing you have to understand finding the one at a job is going to be hard work you’re going to kiss a few frogs before you get to the queen
Next: finding your Queen

No! your eyes don’t deceive you, there has been at lot of changes at the home of the worst employees on the planet and it is Brad Guigar fault.
Let me explain i put my website up for review on the webcomic.com” “hitch it/ ditch it” feature and i got my ass kicked, lol my positives were great and made me glow with pride,
“The character designs are strong in that each main character has an identifiable silhouette.”
(which i love because i worked hard to make each character different from each other
but it was the next paragraph that was the punch to the gut )
“ Everything about this comic makes me feel claustrophobic. The background is overpowering and distracting. The gutters are too small to do their job well, and the lettering is too small. I couldn’t tell you if the writing in this comic is working or not because the lettering is so small, I found it completely illegible.”
Now I know what you’re thinking he insulted my comic and i should be pissed but the truth is nothing could further from the truth, the truth is his critique of the comic was on point.
Of course in order to see that I had look over my site again and what saw i didn’t like, the background needed to be changed, the sidelines needed to be cleaned up and
to update some of the comics.
In the beginning that was all I going to do fix some of the fonts on a handful of
old comics but after looking around I decided that some of the art could be touch up ,then a word balloons could be moved to give the comic a better flow. what were the results ?
I have new comic out and didn’t have to come up with a new idea to do it, but most of all I got a whole bunch of new ideas from some comics I haven’t read in a while .
At the moment i’ve updated the very first big storyline(Get me to hump day) and working on the second(Donkey punch)after that I have a bunch of short stories and single comic to do sometime in the future
the work is hard and some times don’t think it worth it until read them again and it’s like seeing them for the first time and let me tell you family for the first time in a while i’m liking what i see hopefully you are too.
For info on the updated comic,new comics or just to tell me how much you love the comic JOIN the STIFFS Facebook page or follow me on twitter and google +
as always Thank you for patience, without you this comic and this artist would be nothing

Hi! sorry my break has taken longer than planned, my plan was to take off two weeks then get back to work and build a buffer during the summer and run new stories without a break until next spring,as you can see that didn’t happen.The reason why are various and boring but I will say reality keeps sticking its nose in my fantasy.Now that doesn’t mean I haven’t done anything just the opposite I have two solid short stories in the can and i’m working on a third,a story so different from what i’ve done before it’s kicking my ass to do but I wouldn’t continue it if I didn’t think it was worth it
In the meantime I found five min to revamp the old smackjeeves site changing it to the new official Jah’mel’s CHEAP THRILL.What is Jah’mel’s CHEAP THRILL? The fictional comic done by Jah’mel as shown in a couple stories back, the stories are random and pure fun and can be followed without reading any of the other stories but I wish you would, the best part most can be done in the time it takes you to get drunk which was when most of these comics were made. So until the main event is back just click on the pic below and check out my fun undercard(I was writing this during the big fight this weekend) until the next time, be nice to each other

-MARY SUE (a Mary Sue is an idealized character representing the author)
LET ME BE THE FIRST TO SAY THERE IS NO MARY SUE IN THIS COMIC,IF I HAD TO MAKE A CHARACTER THAT REPRESENTING ME IT WOULDN’T BE ANY OF THESE GUYS.WHEN I SET OUT TO MAKE THESE GUYS I TOOK PIECES OF DIFFERENT PEOPLE IN MY LIFE (IN DUDE CASE MORE THAN A PIECE) TOSS IT IN THE BLENDER AND CAME UP WITH FOUR DEGENERATES WITH ONE IN TRAINING. I DON’T REALLY FAVOR ONE GUY OVER THE OTHER BUT IF YOU READ CLOSELY YOU CAN GUESS WHO THAT MIGHT BE,HERE A HINT IT’S NOT WOOD.
FROM THE BEGINNING I WANTED WOOD’S ACTIONS TOWARDS OTHER TO BE DEPLORABLE YET YOU FIND HIM SO LIKABLE YOU CAN’T TAKE IT SERIOUSLY,MORE IMPORTANTLY I WANTED TO MAKE SURE THAT HE DOESN’T ALWAYS GET AWAY WITH BEING “WOOD!” TODAY’S COMIC IS A GOOD EXAMPLE OF DOING THAT IT’S THE MOST VICIOUS I’VE BEEN TO HIM AND THAT MAKES ME SMILE
OTHER EXAMPLES

2012 was a new beginning for me as I took my commitment to the comic to the next level by getting off smackjeeves and hosting the comic on my own,but i’m not done I have new professional goals for the upcoming year
goals and hopefully 2013 is where I make it happen.
professional Goals for 2013
*Improve the look of the website
*Do more blogging
*Use social media to market the website to a wider audience
*Build a bigger buffer
*Find a affective way to use paid advertisement to build a audience
*Develop the minor characters (can’t be about five guys all the time)
*Find time to do more pin-ups and guest comics
*Have 500,000 hits a day (it’s a stretch I know) I would settle for a group of hardcore fans and we can grow together
Here is my challenge, lets see how well I do
