A four panel Calvin and Hobbes: Calvin's father is sitting at a computer saying "It used to be that if a client wanted something done in a week, it was considered a rush job, and he'd be lucky to get it." He thinks to himself further: "Now with modems, faxes, and car phones, everybody wants everything instantly! Improved technology just increases expectations." He stares into the CRT monitor from a side profile and continues "These machines don't make life easier - they make life more harassed." Calvin is seen in the background holding a packet of food and complaining "Six minutes to microwave this? Who's got that kind of time?!" Calvin's father's face turns down in a frown as he concludes "If we wanted more leisure, we'd invent machines that do things less efficiently."
