Appropriate and Inappropriate Compliments

Text on the meme

KNOW THE WORK RULES APPROPRIATE LOOKIN' GOOD, SUSAN. AWWW,YOU'RE SWEET. INAPPROPRIATE LOOKIN' GOOD, SUSAN. HELLO, HUMAN RESOURCES?!

What it means

A two-panel office comic contrasts an attractive male colleague complimenting Susan and receiving a sweet response with an awkward older coworker saying the same thing, prompting her to call Human Resources. The joke is about workplace boundaries and how the same compliment becomes inappropriate depending on who says it and how it is perceived.
