Also real nice to see that you're all supportive of all kinds of causes, so long as they don't conflict with the golden rule that Jeph is above criticism and can do no wrong. OCD can be cured by shoveling shit. The Lord has spoken. Tell your friends it's their fault they have problems.

You're reading an awful lot into one comic to support a conclusion for you to get angry over. It's worth noting that Hannelore had already made a ton of progress before this point. She'd already been getting accustomed to hugging (ask Marten and her father). Working at the coffee shop got her accustomed to feeling dirty and grimy, to the point that she almost decided not to shower after work, an idea that was so alien to her she had a panic attack over it.
Old Hanners wouldn't have travelled the world, met all new interesting people, done all new interesting thing, and certainly wouldn't have made it through a day of shoveling yak shit, much less a week of it. This isn't "Hanners shovels yak shit for a week and suddenly she's cured." This is "Hanners was already doing well enough to shovel yak shit for a week and suddenly she starts realizing and processing that she's getting better."
Sometimes it works like that. Sometimes you don't even realize all that work you've put into getting better was actually slowly working until a furry cow is staring you in the face wanting to know if his stall is clean yet.

I already thought it was weird that latrines needed shoveling, but that's because I only know latrines from history class, the thing the romans use for instance. I thought animals just shit all over the place. If it's manure then it's suddenly way less gross than if it was poop.

Nice to see they saved Hanner's job for her.

That was Dora's close to a promise when she left. She gets to reintroduce herself to Mr Burny.
