Apparently it was to save on paper towels, but the usage in the mens' toilets actually doubled, so I can imagine that more were actually washing their hands, just so they could use the new gadget.Kerry McSaveneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05255016755307242552noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5029785741375576797.post-66321166290496141452010-07-14T21:02:30.064+12:002010-07-14T21:02:30.064+12:00Frankly if they're anything like the people at...Frankly if they're anything like the people at my work I wouldn't count on them washing their hands either.<br /><br />I figure about 95% of people I see in the loos wash their hands before they leave, but of those maybe 5-10% on a good day, are doing it properly. For the vast majority it's a quick rinse under the tap, no soap, and a quick wipe with a towel before they're out the door and into the kitchen to make a coffee. Makes me want to shower in dettol.<br /><br />Fortunately I'm now in a position to try and do something about it. I'm looking for the best gross-out posters I can get away with to stick up around the place and try to get decent hand washing if nothing else through people's heads.William de Wykehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02649071651469763901noreply@blogger.com
