Have you ever been to a bathroom where everything is automated? It has all of the sensors on everything? Environmentally friendly they say as well as a way to help prevent bacteria and germs from spreading. I have had this thought a many times but finally as I came home for a week I have been driven to talk about it. I like the idea and I understand the concept, but in practice is where I get lost. Maybe I am the only one but I really doubt it.
When ever I enter any of these restrooms I just think, I better bust out the magic skills if I want to get out of here. First, when using the toilet or urinal, you must be absolutely still as to not make it think you are walking away. I mean mid process the toilet just randomly flushes on you. But now that you are done with that it’s time for the real excitement to happen.
You step up to the sink and you put your hands under the faucet and you are up and down and maybe to the left and to the right, all in the hopes that you can get some water on your hands. This is always a good 10 to 30 second process just to get water on your hands. Meanwhile the soap dispenser is going crazy and keeps shooting more and more soap down the sink, but the second you put your hand underneath to get some soap you can’t get it to work. So you spend another 10 to 30 seconds trying to get soap. Now hands wet with soap you scrub those hands up, singing the ABC’s or D&C 4 if you prefer. Next, rinse, now you spend the next 10 to 30 seconds trying to get them rinsed. Hands rinsed you come to the air drying process. To get your hands fully dried you need to camp out next to this thing for a solid minute if not more. I love the instructs, place hands under and rub vigorously. Rub away, rub all you want, I have never seen anyone walk out with completely dry hands. Some people might leave with partially under dry hands, others do what I do and get them some what there and dry them off the rest of the way with my pants.
Now the reason we have this whole thing is so that we can have less germs spreading around. I have just completed this whole process, using my magical skills to get everything good and working properly, mean time, some home boy walks in and does his business and walks out not washing his hands and my only way out is to touch the same handle that he did on his way out. Go figure.
