The innocent and naïve pig protagonist, Ham Shears, moves to the big city to try and make something of himself and mistakenly ends up working at a butcher shop. The well-meaning Ham doesn't make the connection between animals and meat products while the titular and eccentric "Boss" of "Boss's Butcher Shop" doesn't seem to notice the implications of hiring a pig to work for him.
Uncomfortable encounters with butcher shop customers ensue and eventually Ham Shears meets two girls from the neighborhood, the plucky Jill and no-nonsense Ingrid. They end up befriending Ham Shears and get wrapped up in the day-to-day weirdness that comes from knowing an anthropomorphic pig.

Hint No. 1 that this will not end well.

Ham should just ask Boss if he wants to go out with Jill or Other Jill. Boss thinks they are named Jill and Other Jill. At least that’s what he calls them.

I don’t think either of them will out with any man. I don’t think they roll that way.

Knew a guy who had an affair with a women who had the same first name as his wife, said it saved him from the mistake of using the wrong name at the wrong time

@Ken
I was wondering how long it would take Ham Shears to realize that. As I stated a week ago, he most likely means Ingrid. He seems to have some sort of attraction to her. (Why, I have NO idea.) Well, Sandy Shore & Ken, it looks like we’ll see if we are right soon enough, no that Ham Shears has stumbled onto that fact, as well.
