How my office is feeling the economy

February 27th, 2009

Yesterday morning I walked into the front office at my work and there was a stack of boxes 4 feet high, filled with paper towels and hand soap.

“What is this for?” I asked our receptionist.

“Apparently,” she quipped, “we are preparing for an attack of dysentery.”

In reality, the change is because the paper towels that went in the the fancy automatic no-touch towel dispenser are too expensive in the face of budget cuts. Now we have to use a dispenser that we have to touch.

The germaphobe in me is very, very upset.
