"Go down and use something in the center manager's office to dry your hands."

I assume you mean his tie.... The "go down" part had me worried...


(Oops, did "go down" offend anyone? It wasn't my intention. Hope my post isn't deleted)

Geez, you guys will bitch about anything. Yippee!!:laugh:

In our building it's the lazy porter who's to blame because he keeps making excuses about forgetting to fill the paper towel dispenser. I think management ought to write him up because I get sick and tired of having to hike over to the other more responsible porter's area just to dry my hands.

How about if I start a thread about how there's never any shoe polish...
You know we gotta look sharp.:lol:

We have shoe polish, but.......


.......I've always thought we should have a shoe shine boy. Why should I have to polish my own shoes? Don't I have enough to do in the morning? (Get EDD, drink my iced coffee, shoot the bull, etc)

I have EMailed this post to Brother Hoffa in hopes it will be included in the next contract.

Our center has been out of paper towels for almost 2 months, and on friday, we were down to one pack(not case), of paper. A feeder driver said a lot of centers are out of supplies, and they arent going to buy anything they dont have to til after the end of the quarter. Apparently this is to help ensure that the company hits its earning mark to satisfy the stock holders. Just wondered if any other facilities were experiencing this. Personally, I just go up and wipe my hands on the business managers chair. I feel revolt in the air, if we run out of toilet paper, but on the bright side, just think of what I'd get to wipe on his chair then

I hope you don't run out of toilet paper. :blush:
Are you a sup?
You're directing your love and attention at the wrong person. Paper towels are bought by the plant engineering department who is generally responsible for all such related house cleaning activity.
In many cases we are replacing the paper towels with the hand dryers. I personally like the concept since it means we are killing less trees and generating less waste.
What we haven't done is a very good job of explaining why we do what we do.

We got these new hand dryers several months ago. I've never seen them anywhere else. It's like putting your hands under a jet engine. It blows so hard, your skin ripples over your bones.

I've always hated blow dryers, but these new ones are awesome!

You have got to be kidding about spending all their money on the West Coast centers. You should see some of these ramshackle places that we deliver out of. Kinda embarrassing.
