Dear So and So

[indysteel]

Seriously? 20 posts about TP? Even if it cost $1.00/roll of TP, we are talking $250 or so over the course of a year. I suspect the 20 minutes or so each person has spent to talk/write about the subject while on company time adds up to way more waste than that. We all need to pick our battles. Just chalk it up to another amusing thing at work, shake your head, and move on.

I appreciate and agree with Pax's point of view about this and the diplomatic way she stated it. My original post that started this discussion was in keeping with the intent behind Dear So & So. It's a chance to vent, complain, celebrate, share, etc. What happens from there is the nature of an online forum. Things often take on a life of their own. We've certainly discussed sillier things in this thread in the past. I personally don't need you to wag your finger at me/us about it.

Just consider it another vent.

Yeah, I guess that did sound mean. Sorry. As germs apparently are to this person, waste is to me. Seriously. It's how I was raised, and that was before I ever heard the phrase "carbon footprint." It's a good thing I don't work in your building, because I would be the one pulling the unused rolls of TP out of the trash and putting them back on the spindles. Yes, I do know that's gross.

Gross, yes, but discussing it would make this thread even funnier.

More toilet idiosincracies....

I used to work with a woman that took the idea of waste not to a higher level. One day she asked why we don't save the paper toilet seat liners so they can be used again. I guess we were supposed to hang them up.......

I have more..........

Hey, that's not gross, I'd do it right there with you

I was brought up the same way.
