This article about toilet paper conservation, yes you read that right, has nothing to do with Lean or Six Sigma… but I just had to share. Comments?
I didn’t read the article, but if you’re using more than you need, that’s waste, right??
Indeed. I stand (or sit?) corrected!
Using less than you need isn’t good either. Unless Sheryl has a brilliant plant to solve the root cause of the problem (ie. strong bowel movements) — “only one square per restroom visit, except, of course, on those pesky occasions where two to three could be required” — just doesn’t cut it.
The quotes at the end of the article make it seem even more ridiculous — she has spent “the better part of this tour” thinking about this and she’s still not sure how but wants to have a restriction put in place to enforce this?
No kidding Maciej! I still can’t get over this. Thanks for stopping by I have missed your comments lately!
