Capitalism and its consequences have been a disaster for the human anus

I love these false economies that some corporate bean counter thinks saves the company money
Because you see, whenever I see this trash in a cubicle, I lovingly build my own 8-ply, using more paper and burning company time
They thought the service they hired was the least expensive.
The Janitorial service is the one cutting costs because they are not the ones using the toilet paper and they only care about their bottom line.
Nicer paper means they lose the contract. Capitalism and somebody else’s problem all the way down.
I’m in a warehouse that gets it by the pallet. Still the same cheap 1 ply trash, only we distribute it to the other company locations as well as us.
We don’t have janitors, just one random poor soul assigned to deal with it each day.

It definitely takes more time to gently extract enough paper for the job without it crumbling to dust.
This toilet paper is less and saving money on toilet paper and more about saving money on plumbing.
The nice multiply, soft booty hole paper doesn’t break down as easily in the pipe. In your house this isn’t always a problem, there are few people shitting and wiping there, and the distance to the street is relatively small. It can be a problem, if you’re a heavy wiper on an old house using Charmin, but most of the time it’s a non issue.
In an office building it’s a different story. Hundreds of people on multiple floors, with someone practically always shitting. And the cost to even call a plumber to an office building starts at 4 figures for a cheap visit, with the affected stall down for days. If the entire bathroom isn’t closed.
So, yes, the 1/3rd ply paper sucks, it’s absolutely about saving money, just not on the paper.
Where the pipes that are supposed to come out of the porta-johns? Cause that sounds like bullshit to me. And porta-johns is where I mostly see that kind of toilet paper.
Also the cost for a plumber to visit an office doesn’t start at 4-figures. My friend is a plumber and says even at a 4 hour minimum call out it won’t hit 4 figures, even in HCOL areas. I’m an electrician and I believe because we make similar and I know how much I charge out.
Ayo, are you the Technology Connections dude?
I shall savor this as my highest compliment.
Alec probably uses a bidet at home.
there’s a heat pump involved somehow
That just means people will use more of it.
One side: 80 grit The other side: high gloss
I would start bringing my own toilet paper.
Or would check out the toilets on the floor where the management offices are.
I would start bringing my own toilet paper.
And reward their shittiness by buying your own paper?
Just keep unrolling all of it into the toilet and flushing. Let it clog up. If management makes a stink say you have ibs or some health issue and with the tp so thin you just end up going through alot of it for medical reasons. This isnt a battle won directly or honestly. You need government backing. It needs to shift from you vs them to them vs a larger entity of power.
That is of course if this isnt in a state or place where the government has no oversight about unfair dismissal.
Is this too much for better toilet paper? No. Fuckem. Tp is cheap they are cutring corners in the wrong places. If a business cant afford standard toilet paper they have no right existing. If they are in the red but operating, they can afford tp. If they are doing good, they can afford tp. If there are bonuses going to literally any staff member, they can afford to buy tp. Theres no scenario where its ok that my fingers slip through these rice papers and i get shit under my fingernails.
If your colleague had just scooped shit under their fingernails and proceeded to literally clean the shit our of their hands for the next ten minutes, would you still feel comferable shaking their hands? Now imagine that happening to each and every one of your colleagues. Are they all gonna wash their hands for 10 minutes?
If i worked here I would take a fucking black light to the kitchen to scare the biggest karens/loadmouths jn the company. Scare the living shit out of them. Make them sick. Let THEM run to HR. Let health and safety get involved.
This is the kind of place that says we are a family but then you gotta bring your own fuckin ass wipes
It’s not that serious dude
“Hey everyone! He’s got shit under his fingernails!”
At least that wasn’t an essay.
Yeah
That TP looks great for removing the static from between your cheeks.
Bro just pull out a half km of it and fold it up
It is so thin that it crumbles upon the slightest pull
It was a monumental task getting enough to come out for the picture
You realize everyone in the office has very recently just touched their own poop. Even management cant put a positive spin on that. You need better TP.
Ain’t nobody single-sheeting paper that thin.
That’s terrible and what’s sad is that its likely not even cheaper if you factor in how much is used.
It’s this kind of shit that will ultimately motivate me to unionize.
this is what it takes? the fact that a union can increase you pay and get you a bunch of extra vacation time wasn’t appealing enough?
“Nope. Give me toilet paper or give me death!”
Use the whole roll. They’re the ones purchasing it.

What’s that? Can’t hear you over the sound of my bidet
deleted by creator
Bidet and/or toilet seat with butt washer.
I mean when you step in shit, you don’t just tissue your foot or shoe, you wash it down at the earliest opportunity. Why should it be different for butts?
I agree, but you still need to dry yourself lest you get diaper rash and fragile sandpaper is no good
Can’t say I’ve ever seen a bidet at a workplace or public bathroom…
The pic doesn’t exactly look like a home bathroom.
/edit: spelling
I love my bidet but I would never use a public one
The lebanese joint near my office has a bidet in the public washrooms.
I think it’s weird. Bidets aren’t weird, one in a random Canadian public washroom in a Lebanese joint next to a tire place is weird.
The food is amazing. Legit good stuff.
They respect their customers
My dad always told me that when a company switches to single ply toilet paper, it’s time to gtfo bc the writing is on the wall. Company’s going under.
The writing is on the wall? Like with brown letters on the toilet wall?
Eeeewwwwww
We were in a hotel in Niagara Falls earlier this year and it had toilet paper like that in the room. We went out and got real toilet paper pretty quickly.
What gives, Canada? I thought you guys were better than us.
You were in Niagara Falls. NF is known as one of the shittiest (pun very much intended) Canadian cities.
Fair.
If bidets became commonplace, it would reduce the need for toilet paper greatly! Ask me, I know! Got one for $40.00 from Amazon, attached in minutes. Best thing since sliced bread
Doesn’t it involve plumbing? I’m not good with plumbing. I’m picturing water everywhere, like the time I fixed my sink.
You are basically adding a fork to your existing line to your tank. 4 new connections.
Not that much “plumbing” if you wanna call it that.
- Turn the nozzle on the water line, from the wall to the tank, off.
- Unscrew the line and add the bidet line to it.
- Screw line back in.
- Turn nozzle back on.
- Enjoy a clean booty.
Can confirm, I have zero plumbing experience and installed mine with zero issues. It’s about as simple as entry-level Ikea furniture.
This doesn’t sound too bad.
I installed it myself with that tushy bidet one. The website is helloTushy.com. Make sure the hello is infront or else it will link to porn. I believe they have a video you can watch of the install.
Tushy is great, but thanks for the bidet hookup also
If you have a newer home, it only involves removing the water feed line to your toilet tank (turn water at shut-off valve first) and installing the hose to the bidet. It is very simple process as long as your toilet and home is not too old. When parts are old and corroded from time, it can be a bit more involved. Check out YT for “do it yourself” vids.
I’ll look into it, thanks! I’ve always wished I had one
Yes it involves plumbing, but just barely. It’s super easy. Everything screws in with no more than a simple wrench. There is no soldering, cutting, specialized tools, or anything like that. If you can screw and unscrew the cap on a soda bottle, you can do this.
I can’t connect a garden hose without water leaking out the connections, so I’m not sure how well I’d fare with indoor plumbing
That’s more of a design fault of garden hoses than a failing of skill.
It’s not a fault per se, it’s just the result of cheap, UV resistant, outdoor weatherable products.
You wouldn’t buy tight fitting metal couplers, for this, mostly because they would be expensive as hell and too hard to deal with any grit in the connections.
Apples and oranges
I did the exact same. I never want to go back. Though Ill be honest, I have never tried sliced bread on the anus.
To be fair, it probably feels luxurious.
I only use artisan sourdough personally
Artisan Sourdough often has a chewier crumb than sandwich bread and the crust is harder. Sounds like it would be murder on the under carriage
The avocado makes it softer.
Sounds like a recipe for a yeast infection to me. I’ll stick to tortillas.
LOL LOL LOL
So … don’t you need paper to dry off? How do you keep from spraying water everywhere and getting your clothes wet? Forgive my cluelessness, but I’ve often wondered how it works.
yes, you do need a small amount of TP to dry off. The spray is narrow and precise it aims pretty naturally to the right “place”. Over spray has never been a problem with clothing in my experience. It really is a wonderful invention.
I bought one at the start of the pandemic and it’s just sat in my bathroom in the box behind the door 😭
Dude, it takes like 5 minutes to install. There is no complicated plumbing. One existing bendy pipe is forked into two - your tank and the bidet.
For a simple cold water model, sure. Maybe theirs is heated and needs a second water line run to the main plumbing, or a power cable somewhere which can be awkward in a bathroom.
yeah i am not shooting cold water down there in the middle of winter. heated bidet or paper.
OMG have someone install it! you will not regret it! lol I htg love it
Or install it yourself, it’s shockingly easy
Same! Now I hate pooping anywhere but home.
Same here! Makes me wonder why it took so long to discover something the Europeans have had for many years
Just one? I got a 2 pack for $40. They’ve been installed since March with zero issues. And single ply works just fine at home because I don’t feel like completely wrecking the plumbing in our house built in 1936. If you really have a problem with single ply, might I suggest you re-evaluate how well you’re washing your hands?
