e-Mail your boss (or janitorial supply supervisor) this link. If that doesn’t get you anywhere, don’t get yourself all flushed with anger, call my worker’s rights attorney, John Shitz.
I don’t know…I thought it was kinda funny. The inventor of the one-scrap-at-a-time dispenser should spend an unpleasant eternity swimming upstream in heavy menstrual flow.
Sorry VP! :o
I just really, really, really hate those things! I hate them so much I find it amazing the Hero in Demolition Man used the little tickets instead of … using the Bad Guy’s shirt of something.
Well, I have a solution if you’re willing to listen. Not only will you be able to peel off 50-plys at once, you’ll have a great prop for the occasion potty joke.
Get a pen-knife. Slice the roll and pull off as thick a slab as you desire. If someone sees your knife you can confide to them that it’s you “toilet-knife.” When pressed, explain it’s for “trimming the `noids,” or “clearing the urethera.”
There must be a way to hack it so that you can get an appreciable wad. Without seeing a picture, I’m guessing that you could sneak a few tools in there during a particularly lengthy session to remove any pull-limiters or what not…
Is there a chance you could find a picture of your particular dispenser?
Upon a little googling, I see that the phenomenon Lobsang refers to is known in the business as “controlled delivery”. While prohibited in the U.S. in handicapped-accessible facilities, these dispensers with such a feature exist to decrease the “waste” of toilet paper stemming from excessive use or vandalism. However, to us practical folk, it’s a crock.
Anyway, there’s bound to be some way to loosen the tension with an allen key or Torx bit. Not that I advocate this…
