Paper towels

Post by 24601 »

So the company that is replacing push bikes with vans is no longer putting paper towels in the toilets because it is concerned about the carbon footprint.

Instead we have to use the hand blowers that have been proven by amongst others The University of Westminster to be health risk.

What's wrong with just wiping your hands on your trousers?
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.

Yes I believe it does have to be your own trousers. Perhaps brothermagrew can provide a link to the SSOW.
However it can be the back of the shirt of the person you are following down the corridor.

There's a crap-load (with emphasis on the 'crap') of colleagueshare certificates that could be recycled as paper towels. Or perhaps they've already been ear marked for toilet duty. :Sick

They are,managers are taking EVR as we speak. :cuppa
I Wrote-During Covid-Which is still relevant now
It's good to get these types of threads, the ridiculous my manager said bollox, so we can reassure ourselves that while the world is falling apart, Royal Mail managers are still being the low-life C***S they have always been.

The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.
