A change in employment will give you pause to make all kinds of comparisons! The difference in language, dress, attitude, toilet paper... Yep! I always thought our building management in Lincoln Tower was trying to cheap out on us with their toilet paper.
It was no doubt made from the scraps leftover from making news paper, bit of wood pulp and such visible in the weave. Perforated all over giving it a bumpy sand paper like texture designed to strip paint, or the first layer of skin.
None of that quilted quadruple ply made from the hair of baby angels. We're talking the real Civil War toilet paper here.
Who would have thought I would miss it! I just needed to reference against something else to realize it:
Lincoln cheaps out too, but in a different way, they buy the straight up newspaper. I think they seriously get the end of the press roll from the Journal Gazette and cut it down! Did you know newspaper doesn't clean anything? Try to clean up some chocolate pudding off the kitchen floor with newspaper sometime.
..... Now I suppose if I had a spray bottle full of Windex I could get a nice shiny streak free finish like the family room windows.
