Even Superman is quitting the newspaper business.


The Daily Planet has hired Clark Kent as a reporter since 1940, but even Superman has his limits.

In the latest issue of the comic franchise, Clark Kent channels the feelings of everyone in middle management and goes on a diatribe at work--culminating in his quitting the newspaper business.

If you worked at the same place for 72 years and had a meager 401k plan, you'd probably quit, too.

Superman writer Scott Lobdell tells USA Today, "[Superman] is more likely to start the next Huffington Post or the next Drudge Report than he is to go find someone else to get assignments or draw a paycheck from."

Maybe Superman should look into a job at Newsweek?
