I Just Don’t Get It

That’s right. I just don’t get it. You can add this to the list of things that I don’t get.

At work, we used to have paper towel dispensers in the men’s restroom; remember that our men’s restroom is shared with the plant. Now these were cheap, harsh paper towels (would you expect anything else in a public restroom?) that were downright irritating. The other thing that was even more irritating than the rough towels was the dispensers. It seemed that they couldn’t work for more than about a week at a time. It seemed that someone took delight in breaking them, jamming them and in general just making them not work. (Probably the same guys who seem to enjoy spreading their boogies on the backs of the stall doors.)

The company, in response to the paper towel dispensers not working more than they were working removed the paper towel dispensers. No, we weren’t left with nothing but our pants and shirts to dry our hands on… the company installed the hot air blower hand dryers. These dryers are much more powerful than any I’ve seen. It actually takes less time to dry your hands with these hot air dryers than with paper towels. Cool! So now I can wash and dry my hands after I handle my business even faster than before. You gotta like the progress. Also, now there’s no paper wadded and tossed on the floor, most likely from guys not being able to drop their used paper towels in to the waste can (no they’re not full).

What pisses me off is that some dumbass continues to bring the paper towel rolls into the bathroom to use to wipe his hands off. This is incredibly stupid as there are no dispensers in the men’s bathroom so the towel roll sits on the counter near the sinks and soaks up any spilled water. This means that when you use a paper towel you will be grabbing it with your wet hands and the towel will already be wet from the water on the counter. STUPID! Why not just use the hot air hand dryer? DUH!!!

    I don’t know why any bathroom wouldn’t have hot air driers nowadays. Paper towels? Do we really need to kill some trees just to dry out hands after we take a piss?
