Patron: Hello.
Esther: Good morning.

Esther: I’ve tried ignoring him, being rude to him, and heading into the back room when I see him.
Jane: Have you tried reporting him for harassment?
Esther: Yes but we don’t have a policy against “compliments”.

Sadly, we all have these. Too creepy to ignore, to harmless to report.
Amen to that…
Just a technical aside (nothing to do with the content of this set of panels): this is the first time I’ve seen the names of the regular characters, i.e., employees of this library, omitted. Like other regular readers of this great strip since it began, I know that these characters are Esther and Jody. I suppose this is just an unintentional slip?
Fixed!
Duly noted!
