Corpo Bean is the little blue character who lives in a world of overflowing inboxes, business trips that feel longer than the flight itself, and meetings that drift far from any agenda, all while working very hard to convince everyone that everything is fine.
Behind the bean is a hybrid worker based in Seattle, Washington, who splits the week between home and the office and travels often for work. That routine supplies most of the material, especially the thoughts that cross a lot of minds at work and almost never get said out loud. Simply drawn and delivered with a bone-dry sense of humor, the comics take on office culture, social awkwardness, exhaustion, travel, hobbies, and the general business of being an adult. It may be a bean, but its problems are suspiciously human.
The artist told Bored Panda they hope readers recognize themselves in these situations and find the humor in them. Judging by how familiar some of these feel, that shouldn't take long. Scroll down to meet Corpo Bean, and tell us in the comments which comic hit a little too close to your own workweek.
