This past week our maintenance guys have been feverishly installing new paper towel dispensers in every bathroom and above each break room sink. We can now wave our hands and get a strip of paper the perfect size. Gone are the days of dispensing before washing, trying to move the lever with your elbow, or just using your wet hands to move the lever. We can now look foolish waving our hands in front of the sensor that will probably only work half the time.
And how does a company afford to install fancy new paper towel dispensers? Well you stick with the routine of laying off people on the first Tuesday of every month, for at least eight months straight. Luckily, I'm not one of them. Phew! But thank you to the people who will turn in their badges and laptops this week, begin collecting their severance pay and unemployment, and soak in what's left of summer. I can wave my hands and make paper towels appear like magic - and then go back to my desk to pick up the slack!
