Original Commentary
While I didn't mean for all these comics to be listed one after the other on the main page, this comic and the last really work a lot better when read one after the other. I really hope it would have worked otherwise.
Terrence did a bit of research on the average vet's pay; they make about 72k a year, which is good, but not great, especially for a doctor. The nurse assumes Sofia is after the doctor's money, but Sofia isn't dumb and can probably smell the money off a man (and thus, knows what she's getting into). -Isabel
Modern Commentary
I'm not sure what the average wage for veterinarians is nowadays. There's a lot of variance in the numbers I'm seeing and there's going to be a difference between a takes-care-of-pets veterinarian, a zoo veterinarian, and a farm animal veterinarian. And differences between running your own practice and working for a veterinary chain.
