This was a close one

I know, this comic does not have all the graphical "finesse", but I had very little time on my hands this weekend. I hope you still enjoyed it a little.

Comic transcript

Panel 1:
G and H are at their usual table.
G: So, how’s the new job going?
H: To be honest, it’s quite strange. I get assignments, I work on them ...
Panel 2:
H: ... and when I’m done I get new assignments. It’s like doing exercises for some lecture, but without an exam at the end.
G: Sounds normal enough.
Panel 3:
H: You don’t understand. It’s exactly like those assignments at university. Some even state “as discussed in the lecture”. I’m not sure what I’m doing is legal.
