If he weren't always in his own little world, Toby would be in total emotional conflict between the new girlfriend and the possibility of getting sacked.
Of course, nobody wants to be sacked. But a traitorous part of him points out how close he was to leaving of his own accord a few months ago, and wonders whether it would actually be such a bad thing to be able to get a job he's better at.
He wanders into the bar with his headphones on, not really paying attention to his surroundings until he nearly trips over a waitrat.
The rat glares at him and hurries off.
