The previous explanation was:
The comic is about perspective. The person on the ship dreams of working in an office while the person in the office is dreaming of being on a ship.
The ship and office are perhaps metaphors for freedom and structure. The comic may be trying to convey that those people who have a highly structured life desire more freedom while those with too much freedom desire structure.
