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.

This comic is not believable. Pigs don’t sweat.

I’d say they don’t fly either but Geico crossed that one off the list. Ham has his work counted out for him.

I used to raise pigs. It’s true they don’t sweat. But then they don’t talk, wear clothes or work in butcher shops either.

Gee, I don’t understand why he would rather go out with the cute happy Jill instead of the grumpy buzz-kill Jill. Obviously there are some mental problems.
