Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

After months of no replies, you are fired for "lack of initiative".
Unless you went ahead and did it, and then you get fired for "too much initiative".
You have to find just the right amount of initiative.
My DEX modfier is +2 and get another +2 from being a bard, is +4 too high?
If it made the boss feel inadequate, then yes - dial that shit back, maybe pretend to attempt to roll but then trip (while actually aiming to just trip), roll for constitution to avoid damage. Taking ego damage is unavoidable in that case, except getting to keep the job more than balances it out:-).
And congratulations - you just leveled up! Now you get to do 1.1x your previous workload, for 1.00x your previous pay.:-( Although when all your friends at work get let go, you get to stay.
Make sure you don't roll too high or too low.
