It's that thing where you drop a sheet and duck behind a doorway/couch/whatever and whoever is watching (often a child or dog) is left to wonder where you went.
I think the joke is okay and would have worked if I didn't have to make sense of a number of confusions I had to work through first.
number being represented by "nr". Nothing wrong here, just something that I'm not familiar with.
the use of "floop" to represent the sound of the list hitting the floor
the lines in the doorway representing, what I'm guessing are, stairs and not connected to the employee as I first considered
the disappearance of the desk from one panel to another
the path one manager in red took to get to the door from sitting at the desk
I don't know if anyone else has these problems to work through, but having had to work through them muted any enjoyment I would have gotten from the joke had that been absent.
I think the lines in the doorway represent the list falling. It wouldn't make a lot of sense for the manager's office to be in the basement of a fast food place.
I feel like them acting like dogs is a punchline without a setup. There's nothing that links the comic to the dogs-freaking-out-when-someone-vanishes meme, so it just comes out of left field without landing comedically.
Imagine that this is a sketch people are performing. Do you laugh when the guys start barking, or are you confused because they start barking for no reason when a guy was just quitting?
good thing I'm sober...
this could melt already cooked brains
So... Am I too high or not high enough to understand this comic?

And this is considered "funny"?
Humor is subjective
That a very good answer. You won. 😎
I don’t think it’s funny but for some reason I still appreciate custardfist’s goofy style and the effort they put in
Eh, i don't know, it subverts expectations though which is kind of funny

...yes? I don't understand the confusion here?
Oh. I didn't get that at all.
That's what it was. For a brief minute, I was a child or dog again.
Then you got something even better than a laugh!
You got to experience wonder!
TBH, I think Siegfried and Joy have elevated the trick to an art form. (Link is to a very short video example)
Aw that's cute lol
Yes
How high are you?
Hi, how're you?

*FLOFF*
I thought dude fell off a ladder. I was like, "no wonder he quit! It's dangerous!"
I expected barrier aggression in doges but no barrier. I am confuzzled. Also no doges.
I don't understand the last 2 panels. They have me stumped.
He lifted the list up like a blanket and disappeared like people do when they're playing a trick on their pets
I'm also assuming he sprayed "essence of dog potion" in there for them to react like that but that's another thing

This doesn't cross the "joke" bar, and it's quite low already.
Damn, bruh. Who put sand in your Fleshlight™? 😏
Damn, bruh. Did you get a good deal on those upvotes from the bot farm?
Get laid, son. It might help you.
Good night. 🙏
