I feel like Rory isn’t even the kind of person who cares that much about the work they do; he’s more the kind of guy who has an abstract problem with feeling as if people are “taking advantage of him.” I like the fun way he runs also!
I don’t have too much to say about this since it’s one of those “set up the plot” strips. It’s notable maybe that this is the 100th strip, according to my internal records? But it’s not technically the 100th strip on the site (I have no idea how many there are, maybe like 96 or something), nor is it the 100th I’ve drawn (there are four or five “large-size” comics that don’t come in for the standard numbering system for whatever arcane reason). And like–the strip on the front page of the site right now is #91 according to my internal numbering system (because I start a lot of strips long before actually finishing them), so it’s in no way meaningful for this to be “the 100th strip,” but I mean base ten isn’t inherently meaningful either, so you take your kicks where you can find them is all I am saying
