This is the first week that my company is sharing digs with another tenant. They’re on one end and we’re on the other, with no doors/locks/boundaries between us. The common areas like restrooms and breakroom are shared, too.
I’ve already gotten into a battle with some unknown co-tenant, who insists on moving the restroom trash can near the door. Sorry, dude, but it belongs under the paper towel dispenser. Even got the countertop cut out for it, see? Just because you’re new doesn’t mean you can come in and put the trash can anywhere you like!
All kidding aside, it will be interesting to see how this works. I’m hoping it doesn’t suck, but odds are that it will, at least to some extent. The plan of the day is to just grin and bear it until we can get digs of our own. Right now, roommate issues are the last thing we need to be dealing with.
Putting the trash can near the door is a great idea … this person was probably in the service industry … I actually videotaped a training sesson for the chefs at the Hyatt that a cooking professor from the College of the Desert gave … when you wash your hands after using the bathroom your supposed to use the paper towel you dried your hands with the open the door … with the door now open you deposit the paper towel in the trash can near the door … this keeps you from contaminating your hands with fecal matter from those that don’t wash their hands after using the toilet … I bet you’ll never touch another public restroom door handle again, huh???

Yeah, I’ve already conceded the trash can battle. And I’ve used that trick on some restroom doors before. Maybe I’ll do it all the time now.
