Those that work in China will probably recognize the subtext to this conversation. Many international-facing companies in China use websites like Google, Facebook, and Twitter for their everyday work, and yet these communications are inconveniently “inaccessible” in China in 2020. There are ways to get around that, of course, but if you’re sending emails on Gmail, there can still be an annoyingly long delay, even when emailing the co-worker right next to you… hence this comic strip.
