Housebroken

Oh boy, I've got to share this. Steve, our media team leader/bossman, sent this email out to the whole building just now:

Dear male associates of Elden View.

Not meaning to exclude the female population but I have not heard of this problem with the female rest-rooms.

I personally prefer to read the newspaper in the lunch room, at a table. Please leave the newspaper in the lunch room. If you would like to eat your lunch in the rest-room please do, but leave the newspaper in the lunch room so we can all read it without having to get it off the rest-room floor. If you must read during your time in the rest-room please take your own personal newspaper/reading material in there with you. You then can leave it and anything else in there and the rest of us won't care.

Please be considerate of your fellow associates and leave the newspaper in the lunch room for all the associate at Elden View to enjoy. Thanks for your consideration.

Man that was awesome. I had just come out of the facilities and was shaking my head because we get two copies of the AZ Republic here, and both front sections were splayed across the floor of the handicap stall. And as usual they didn't have the decency to at least drape them over the rail. I did my civic duty and put one of them up there. Trying to make a difference, one newspaper at a time, you see. Then I got back to my desk and saw that email. Woo. I'm glad somebody else worries about these things.
