NWR Rant: How hard is it...

To change the damn toilet paper in the bathroom?  Seriously, I swear I am the only person in my office who is capable of doing this!  At least once a week, I walk in to the restroom to find that the toilet paper is out or almost out, and no one has changed the roll or bothered to go get another roll from the supply closet to keep in the restroom for someone else to change when it runs out.  If there are 2 squares of toilet paper left on the roll, it's going to run out during the next use.  I'm pretty sure you realize that. 

Depending on when I notice this, it is, occasionally, a more than a little inconvenient.

The closet is 10 feet from the restroom.  Every time I notice we are low on TP, I grab a roll or two to stick in the bathroom before I head back to my desk.  It's not rocket science.

    Ugh, little things like this bother me too.  Toilet paper isn't so much a problem in my office, but paper towels are.  For hours, everyone who leaves the bathroom will walk around shaking off their hands, or everyone has wet spots on their pants from drying them off.  How long does this need to go on before someone says something to maintenance?!  Seriously, their office is right down the damn hall!!

    This happens at my office too. Also, nobody ever empties the trash can, ever! I gave up and just let it overflow.

    We don't have that problem at work, but while FI will get out a new roll when we are out at home, he never puts it on the holder. He'll put it on the counter, next to the window, or on top of the empty roll, but never on the damn holder. Drives me nuts!

    I experience this problem at home. DH is notorious for leaving 2 squares on the roll and walking away.

    FI has taken to leaving the roll in his bathroom on the floor. I don't use his that often but it drives me nuts when I go to clean it and there's a random roll of TP on the floor.

    We have this at work too.   It annoys me when I need to run through the building to grab paper towels or toilet paper because the last person opted not to.

    My problem with toilet paper is that H decided to "fix" our toilet paper holder.  He decided it was too loose where it attached to the wall.  I thought it was fine, but he thought there was a problem.

    So he takes it apart and has to screw the one side in (it's a three piece one: two sides and then the part that goes through the roll) in slightly differently so it's not in the same place on the sheetrock because it won't go in tightly in the same place.

    Well, he did them too far apart.  So now, we can't even USE the stupid thing because the part through the roll will balance there, but one pull on the toilet paper and it comes down.  And H has been very busy at work with long hours and has not had time to fix it.  SMH

    I might have given up and refused to refill the toilet paper. I just hid a nice roll from home in my desk and took some with me. Took three days for people to learn to refill the dumb roll.

    DF got owned by the cat. TP on the holder, it's left alone. TP on any flat surface, cat will destroy it into itty bitty shreds. He learned that on the last roll he had. I laughed and laughed, but hey, TP is always put on the roll. MIL at least trained him to not leave the seat up or an empty roll.

    Upstairs bathroom doesn't have a TP holder, and FI keeps running into a weird dilemma about where to put it. TP currently lives in the window or on the counter. It is the dumbest situation and I might remedy it with some fucking 3M sticky strips and just stick the motherfucker to the side of the counter and be done with it.

    OMG That's me and filling the coffee machine.  I ALWAYS fill it when the message comes up, but I guess that means people think they can leave it and just let me do it.  Doctors are the worst for this :(
