So – seems I was not the only OCD sanitary freak believer here at Microsoft. (side note, Word does not supply any synonyms for freak – is that the PC thing to do?) In case you need a refresher – I ranted 3 months ago on the insanity of installing new paper towel dispensers a couple of weeks after installing hand dryers based on Green initiatives at the company.
So a few weeks ago I enter the restroom to see the Dyson dryer has been ripped from the wall! (embellishing just a bit) There has been a hole in the wall since then. Yesterday, I noticed the spackle. Today, the wall has been painted and ready for more wallpaper.
I wonder what led to the waste of purchasing hand dryers for multiple bathrooms on multiple floors of multiple buildings…only to remove them so quickly. Were they a loaner? Was it a test model that Dyson is now improving upon? Given the hole/patch project, I’m thinking no.
So sad. So wasteful.
