The bucket does look a bit off, too long. But I have seen some nonstandard buckets that aren’t too different. OTOH, Varnes is right, he should leave the mop in.
Of course, flu (influenza) is a respiratory disease that is only very infrequently accompanied by vomiting. Gastrointestinal diseases have a variety of different causes, influenza virus not being among them, and occur at pretty steady rates year-round (with spikes due to outbreaks like Norovirus or tainted food served to the public). But it’s a comic — we understood the joke.
I don’t know the dates of the strip, but there has been a fair number of strips involving Frazz donating to help the school and for the students. (New books for the Library, New Exercise Balls, Slippers for kids with wet shoes on rainy days, a new glove for a kid who couldn’t afford to get one)

We finally get another name. But what’s the face to go with it?

Was very ambitious this year, got vaccinated for flu, shingles, and pneumonia.

Yeah, I’m pretty sure Jef isn’t a Janitor, and thus doesn’t know our tricks, but that’s ok.

I’d leave the mop in the bucket, it makes it easier to to roll it that way…..In fact, it becomes the way you steer the thing…

The lens distorts the perspective of the mop bucket.

I agree the word choice doesn’t work perfectly, so what would you do instead?
