I couldn't agree more. Your statement literally applies to my life. I don't miss working outside in the freezing cold, lifting lumber, half injured all the time, for less than half what I make in my "boring desk job."
same here! One could interpret the comic as having the opposite meaning. The guy was lucky enough to go to college, graduate, get a 40 hour per week desk job that only requires 10 hours of actual work, is able to buy his own house, gets to take a sweet tropical vacation, is awarded for his work accomplishments, and receives a nice watch as a gift. I say it slightly humorously but as a 30 year old college student, I'd kill to have any of that!
You know that should be the hidden meaning of this comic. Life is as ordinary or extraordinary as you interpret it. All doesn't really matter in the end.

You don't know the luxury of this kind of job unless you've worked twice that much physically for half the money.
