Tough Times Hit Morganville

Okay, so actually, it's Glenwood (I guess. I never really knew what city this thing took place in, but hey, let's be accurate...unless I'm wrong. If I am, oh well.). You know things are bad when a person takes a job that could potentially end their life just to see if something deadly is lurking in the air. From this comic, I guess the school is now supposed to be slowly filling with carbon monoxide, and since they couldn't put a canary in there because the animal rights people would get angry, they chose a nurse with canary colored hair. Way to take one for the team, Carol. Although, nowadays they could just get a carbon monoxide detector, and avoid the whole death thing. But who knows, maybe she really needed the job. Maybe she's not that smart. Maybe she's not a very good nurse. I mean, they just got through explaining to the guard that the school was clean, and this form of MRSA cannot live in the absence of humans, or a crowd, paraphrasing there, but you get the idea). Although, I do love Rex's expression in the last panel. Even though it has been repeatedly stated that the school is safe, and there is no MRSA there, he's still got this, "Ooookay Carol. Well, let's see what excuse I can come up with to get out of this place before I die," look on his face.
