This is Friday, with one more day left to the week. Tiffany is going to need all the time she can get while Nancy’’s cooling off to think of a way to extricate herself from this mess. Then, mercifully we can get back to what Luann is doing since this story has run off into the ditch and sunk deep into the swamp. How about a story where Knute asks for Luann help painting some of his welding creations. He has a big order for steel flamingos and needs someone to paint eyes on them. And as they paint they can talk about the old days and whether Knute is making money with welding art.
There’s hot, and then there is hot. And there’s irony too. Or is this punnery, pirony, puniry? Sign, Either way Mrs. Degroot is hot! Suck eyeballs on your ageism Miss tiff!
As a woman in her 50s, I feel her pain. She’s gotta get herself one of those little fans you wear around your neck. They’re very professional looking. ;)
Whether Nancy is hot because of her workplace temperature, or her inner temperature, due to change of life—I would argue the final panel is saying she’s still hot in the other sense as well.
The misunderstanding is resolved, now Tiffany will feel like a fool for a while. Les will probably be offended with her and I hope he tells her off for being nosely and loving gossip way too much, because it’s about time someone do it. Regardless, Nancy relaxing under a fan is a beautiful image.
Hot flashes = power surges. It’s all in how you look at it. Peri-menopause can last a long time. Mine was over 10 years. Night sweats were the worst. So glad it’s all over now. I thought I’d never be able to feel cold again. Since it’s a restaurant, they must have a walk in fridge or freezer. Nancy needs to spend a little time rotating/organizing the stock in one of those – she’ll cool right off.
A self-centered video game playing twit is actually going to notice the occasional menopausal discomfort of some lady who works at the restaurant he washes dishes at and never even talks to, huh? Yeah, that’s some Dickensian plot turn, eh kids?
Nancy’s personal heat wave. Okay, enough said. Now Tiffany must deal with Stef’s heat when she finds out that Tiff was going for a Public Display of Affection with Stef’s boyfriend.
And in that moment, Tiff became unlikable yet again. It was so easy to just keep her mouth shut and observe how Les behaves around her. But nope, not “Miss Thing”. This should be good.
No way can Tiffany get out of this. Les will know it was Bets who heard him say that and told Tiffany. Can’t imagine why she would repeat this to Les. Only someone with no social skill would be this dumb.
There we have it. What Bets heard Les remark to Punk is right. There is someone who is hot a the Fuse. Literally. Nancy, unfortunately, is experiencing something that many women her age do.

WTG! Looks like A LOT of the people here were right. It was hot at work and the fan gave it away.
It’ll be fun to see Tiff start tap dancing around where she heard Les say that.

So what’s going on at The Fuse… is their normal AC unit on the fritz?

Mordock999 Premium Member about 2 months ago
Okay.
So Les was the “hot” one due to the poor working conditions in the Fuse kitchen.
But, it appears that dining area is also “hot” according to Nancy.
I dunno what’s more unbelievable:
The notion that Knox seems to have shred of integrity or the suggestion that the Fuse doesn’t seem to have a working air conditioner.
Hoping this arc ends tomorrow before Bets is held “accountable.”
And Knox? Form a Union. Look what did for the Longshoremen. ;-)
