    I’ve had contamination OCD for the majority of my life, and this shit has been torture for me.

    I’ve been trying to get a ADA accommodation to work from home because my job is in software, but the bastards over at HR think that clorox wipes and a dedicated cube will solve this shit. It’s irritating as fuck that nobody in charge seems capable of piecing basic hygiene together.

      Yes and I find it funny that I see them in some of the cheapest, bars & restaurants.

      Sit at a bar and have $3 beer, there’s a foot grab.

      Sit at a sushi bar and get $150 bottle of sake, no foot grab. Bizzaro.

      I’ve witness a lot of people won’t wash their hands after taking a piss. In fact some of them take a shit and just walk out without washing hands. These people then touch doors, windows, counters, food plates, appliances, evey fucking common surface… People in the office, corporate buildings, people in suits… so yeah, fuck people, they’re fucking disgusting.

              Problem is you never know who it is, we shake hands with some one, there is a pretty strong chance they haven’t washed hands since a while, before peeing, after luneating sandwich. You never know. You just assume society is civil enough that people will.

                I’ve seen it many times at my job… People go to the bathroom (number 2, by the way!!!) and just walk straight out of the door. Not even water, certainly no soap, just walk out of the bathroom. It’s genuinely disturbing… Oh well!

    The bathrooms outside the lobby in my work building take this automatic crap a step further, with automatic soap machines. It’s hit or miss if any given one will have soap at all. (Thankfully, we have another sink inside my work itself that employees can use, but guests are fucked.)

    Then when they do dispense soap, it’s the foam shit. So it looks like the sink just spit into my hands. Lovely.

      Hey I’m an athlete but these foot pull doors are still extremely difficult. It strains your calf muscles, your hamstrings, your kegels, and your core. Opening heavy restroom doors with this spiky foot pull is not easy or fun or comfortable at all.
