Our New Digs

This post will actually be mostly about the bathroom.

The restrooms at our new building leave something to be desired. Mainly a decent restroom.

Let's start with t he waterless urinals. That's right, waterless urinals. There's no flushing or anything. It's basicaly just a hole to piss in. Needless to say by the end of the day there's quite a smell and a collection of pubes accumulated in the bowl.

Then there's the toilets. These have got to be the most uncomfortable toilet seats I've ever seen. The front part comes up quite a bit and presses into the backs of your legs.

The sinks have an automatic soap dispenser that never seems to activate the first time you put your hand under it, but usually manages to spit the soap on the back of your hand as you're pulling it out for another try. The faucet has no temp control and is also motion activated. It's hard to keep it flowing and of course the soap dispenser will sometimes activate while you're trying to rinse your hands.

Housekeeping jams the paper towel dispenser too full so it's impossible to get a paper towel out in one piece so you end up with little shreds of paper towel on the floor where people drop them and are too lazy to pick them up.

The wast bins are not just open on top, they have a little lid that you have to push down to put the paper towel in. Unfortunately on one of tehse, whenever housekeeping opens the cabinet up to put in more paper towels, the lid pops up and so when they close it the lid is not above the rim so you can't push it down to get anything in the trash.

There's also a HUGE grandaddy longleg spider on the ceiling. He's been there since we moved in so I'm figuring that he was actually here first and they just built the building around him.
