The Old Rhino Excuse

The Old Rhino Excuse

   I actually had this toon done last week, closest to a buffer that I’ve had in a long time. I’m attempting to work on multiple cartoons when I get drawing. I find for me drawing is easier once I get warmed up. If I can keep drawing once I get started I can get much more done.

   the toon itself is based on something I once overheard at a customer site back in the late 80′s or very early 90′s when I was doing field service. The company distributed locks made in Europe, where the company was headquartered. The employee was getting chewed out by an irate customer who’s order had not arrived. The sale person calmly explained that the shipment had been delayed because the cargo also contained a rhinoceros that had not gone through the proper channels. I thought it was a great excuse or an even greater cover story. Either way I never forgot it and decided to retell as a toon.

    I love it. I am now going to start compiling a list of other people’s excuses so that I will have a buffer of them.
