W iping your ass after dumping a load shouldn�t be a problem, but at Ogemaw Heights is always seems to be. The inferior toilet paper that is provided doesn�t seem to do the job. Even getting it out of the dispenser proves quite a task. The paper is single-ply and you can only get about four sheets out of the dispenser before it breaks off. Then you find yourself having to reach up the "contraption" to get the beginning of the roll back. It is very frustrating!
I understand when they tell me how it can be more expensive buying 2-ply toilet paper for the entire school, but look at it this way. For someone to wipe their backside it takes twice as much single-ply paper than it does 2-ply. The school basically buys the same amount of toilet paper, but pays more.
I compared the prices at Glen�s Market and found that single-ply (which is almost non-existent because of its uselessness) is only a little cheaper than 2-ply (My god!). So if you use twice as much single-ply to wipe your butt and it is only a bit cheaper than 2-ply, wouldn�t 2-ply be more realistic to purchase?
Take this scenario into consideration:
I use the remaining toilet paper, but run out half-way through the week. I have to go all the way back to Glen�s and buy some more. Once again I find myself in a dilemma... I only have $2.00 with me, and an incredibly overwhelming urge for a chunky, delicious, chocolate candy bar. I solve this problem by buying the single-ply toilet paper for $1.50 and the candy bar for $.50.
So at the end of the second week I run out of toilet paper once again. Now, taking into consideration that my bowel movements are every morning between 6am and 8am, and that I use the same amount of toilet paper at every sitting, we could assume the following:
There�s my case. Taking a crap should be an uplifting event that determines the success my entire day, but Ogemaw Heights has taken that away from me. From all students. Of course I could bring my own toilet paper to school with me, but seriously, how odd would that look? Walking down the halls with my books, a pencil, and oh yeah, an emergency roll of toilet paper! I could always tell people that I had a runny nose or it belonged to a friend, but after a while my creditability would be questioned.
To get the ball rolling on this restroom revolution, I started it off. I would like to offer this gift of 2-ply toilet paper in hopes that the school will do the same (Refer to picture below).
