Creating comics serves as an outlet for the artist, who primarily works on them at night and on weekends. It's not a career for now, but if these cartoons are successful, then why not?
The artist enjoys the creative process, and the positive feedback these funny office stories receive motivates him to work even harder.
The most rewarding part is when a comic expresses the thought you wanted to convey. It's a bonus when readers tell you that they connected with it.
My love for comics started at a young age when I would doodle on the back of my exam question sheets. I continued making comics in college but stopped once I started working. After a few years in the workforce, I witnessed and heard so many funny incidents at work that I thought would make great comics, so I restarted with work as the central theme for my comics.

I have many years of work experience. I have experienced, seen, and heard many different incidents. Some incidents have happened to me, while others I have witnessed happening to colleagues. Some I have heard from others about what occurs in their workplaces.
