The Story of My Life

Here you'll find a collection of musings, stories, and thoughts about my work, family, loves, and life in general. Feel free to stay awhile, and leave a few thoughts for me!

Name:
Location: New Jersey, United States

I'm originally from India but was born & raised in Taiwan. I went to an American school there - I can speak, read, & write a little bit of Chinese & Tamil, but first language is English. I'm living in NJ now - no kids (yet) - but I do have a three-year-old Chow/Cocker mix & a wonderful husband. Love the entertainment industry - music, movies, and all that jazz.

Revulsion


So what is it with female executives? Do they have some sort of aversion to washing their hands after they use the ladies?

It’s quite frightening, actually.

This afternoon I was in the ladies’ room and someone came in just ahead of me. Of course, they finished first, flushed (as they very well should), and then left the stall…walking straight out of the bathroom. She didn’t even stop to wash her hands, or at the very least, rinse them off!

She’s not technically an executive, but is definitely “up there”. Add to that the fact that the assistant to one of our female EXECUTIVE executives spilled the beans that this Carly Fiorina-esque individual NEVER washed her hands upon answering nature’s call.

Really makes you want to think twice about shaking their hands when you meet them.

Maybe I’m generalizing this, but consider the fact that all us other little peons take the time to wash our hands – often with soap. So is it an executive thing? Are they too busy to wash their hands, or do they think because they’re all hoity-toity high & mighty the germs won’t adhere to their hands?? Come on, people. Get real – Germs are germs, and germs don’t discriminate!

A little hygiene would be nice!

I realize I might appear a bit sexist here, but do understand – I can’t very well go visit the men’s bathroom to see who does and doesn’t wash their hands…

Am I right?
