--- Quote from: brasca on 24 Jul 2019, 14:58 ---If a combat veteran like Bubbles is disgusted while Hannelore is unaffected then she’s truly come a long way. I hope she at least wore gloves because regardless of how gory it is the real danger is cross contamination.
--- End quote ---
Eh, I definitely know vets who have shrugged off dead bodies (human and animal), falling into sewage, vomit, and the like-but who cringe at saliva, mould, and various other grossness. I mean, she's come a long way for sure, but combat vets are just people.

Yes, and she may have some kind of personality quirk like Roko who gets light headed at the sight of AI surgery.
While it will be nice to see Hannelore in story again perhaps she should thing of a new line of work. Her job was never about money, but just forcing herself out of her comfort zone. She's gone way beyond that in the last few months so perhaps she's outgrown it. Maybe she'll get involved with Roko's charity organization. She's certainly more organized than Beepatrice. Of course just about everyone, but Melon is too.
Is it cold in here?:
A while back she was pondering how to make a meaningful contribution with her advantages.
BenRG:
You know, today's strip tells me just how 'small trader' Union Robotics really is. They keep boxes of random second-hand spare parts, broadly categorised according to description. No packaged and branded items (these could be ordered, I suppose, but only with a few days' lead time and advance payment). No shiny and complicated diagnostic tools. The closest they likely come to that is hooking the customer into Faye's laptop! Faye and Bubbles are right at the bottom of the pile and that's why they struggle (and, as Bubbles pointed out, Faye is not always eating full meals). Half of their working day probably involves working out what of their random boxes-o-bits actually fit their customers!
However, more than anything else, today's strip tells me that Jeph has visited Northampton and learned that his former hometown has become ever-more hipster!
Zebediah:
Northampton actually reached peak hipster-ness years ago. We had a recent spike with the opening of the first legal weed shop in western Massachusetts, but that’s not going to be sustainable. Our excess hipsters have been spilling over into Easthampton, attracted by lower rents and an abundance of converted old textile mills (which make outstanding artist and yoga studios.)

Yep. Drags a right foot out of the box and tosses a left foot next frame. Were there two feet in the hands box?
