In a small boxed-off rectangle below the larger drawing there is a group of animals sitting on benches in what appears to be an office. Written above the door it says “DEPT OF IDEAS” and hanging on the door a sign that says “OUT OF ORDER.” Near the BRC of the paper there is a sign drawn that says “NO JOBS TODAY”.
