Ladies (if this isn't a euphemism and a half!):
I've sent this email out before, and at the request of several other women in the office, I'm sending it out again...
I understand the fear of germs and the reason behind why women 'squat' over a toilet seat; but what I don't understand is why you squatters don't look back long enough to notice the wet toilet seat you have left after your 'tinkling.'
If this were Yankee Stadium or the mall (I hear they have those in NJ), I could understand not wiping the seat before exiting the stall, but here it's different - this is an intimate setting of people you see everyday, and consideration is key to a happy, functioning office!
So say it with me: If you sprinkle when you tinkle, be a sweetie and wipe the seatie!
I'm pretty sure the person who came up with that line made it rhyme on purpose so we could all remember it...but then again, I could be going out on a limb with that rationale.
Thanks!
Mandy.

mandy,
as a disgruntled assistant myself, i am a big fan of your blog. i also don't understand why if you choose to squat you can't choose to wipe YOUR OWN urine off of the seat.
here's an article stating its harder to get sick in your office then in it's bathroom.

this one states that women are indeed germier then men, but it's not in the bathroom department:
