I do not fully agree with this point, but this pig got to be Jeffrey DaHAMer or HAMnibal Lecter

How am I supposed to imagine a clothed pig splicing fiber cables or setting up a rack full of communications equipment with fiber patches. They don't even have opposable thumbs, how can they unplug an LC plug with its retention clip?
If my job isn't real I'm taking the internet down with me, then he can read his hand drawn memes to his neighbor.
Take the Internet. We'll be fine.
pats 1998 Encyclopedia Britannica
Don't worry guys, it's human meat so it's not weird.
This makes me feel sad about my job, but i upvote anyway
Pig in a cute sweater planing war crimes.
This looks nice.
I dare you to find a job that can't be portrayed like that.
Hacker Pig? sure!
Neo matrix Pig? Sure
Politician? Almost indistinguishable
Holywood Director Pig? Nearly by default
Slaughterhouse Pig... NGL, that hits different, but still, I can see that.
Am I missing the obvious sarcasm that is somehow not mentioned? as in this pig is an obvious CLASS TRAITOR for being a pig that sells parts of (presumably) other pigs?
It's allll beef, no pig :)
+
Edit: huh, the '+' did do what i intended but didn't believe it would work.
You can't convince me the pig in the third pic isn't Winne the 🇨🇳 Pooh.
Isn't there a very famous children's story about a pig that is more equal than the other pigs?
I wouldn't exactly call it a children's story
My school had me read it when I was a kid.
I think you could read it to children.
You can read anything to children…
I once saw someone read a Metallica song to their kid as a bedtime story.
Hush little baby, Don't say a word...
And never mind that, fire baaaaad!
Four legs good
Two legs ~~bad~~ better
Now I'm imagining a pig wearing programming socks.
There is a job that can be represented without any clothes at all.
I could totally imagine a clothed pig sitting in front of a computer
Literally me (to be fair I'm not always clothed).
A pig wearing a shirt and tie, but no pants.
So the average cartoon character
So a billionaire is a real job now? I don't even have to imagine a billionaire being a pig, they all already are!
But imagine them in a childrens book doing their job
That is the hard ppart
This is just a stock image but it's not hard to imagine it being in a children's story. Besides, Scrooge McDuck is an existing character in a children's story that is a billionaire as a duck.
At least Scrooge McDuck isn't portrayed as having a healthy relationship with wealth.
But in this photo, they are throwing money, not doing their job
their "job" is literally none other than being rich
throwing money is part of that
the other part is swimming in a pool of money
Swimming in a pool of and throwing money arent jobs, they are hobbies
If they dont do anything other than that, they are jobless

Being billionaire is not a job.
that's what I'm saying, but a pig could be it in a children's story
All squares are rectangles, but not all rectangles are squares.
In this hypothetical situation, if you can't imagine a fanciful depiction of a pig doing it, then it isn't a job. But the opposite isn't necessarily true. Just because you can imagine a fanciful depiction of a pig doing it doesn't necessarily mean it is a job, just that it could be.
Ah, the pig is preparing soylent oligarch-green, a most sustainable job, I applaud you, pig.
Does a muppet count?
What about Police? :O
The whole term sprung up when founding black panthers were studying police methodologies and found a precinct that used a pig as a mascot.
Already pigs.
A pig could sit in front of a computer in those books right? Right?!
