Toilet Crisis: Campus custodians soon to implement "Operation Pooper"
by Martin Corona
Custodial Consultant
There is a very serious ongoing issue at Sierra College. It has to do with the use of our facilities. Many are being overused while others see very little use at all.
Janitors all over the campus are complaining about the redundant cleaning of the same toilets and stalls.
Our team went out to investigate why some toilets are more popular than others and what we found was interesting.
Sutdents (particularly male) instinctively used the stalls and toilets that were most convenient. We talked to professor Von Vonneson, an expert on the subject.
"People are just lazy. They are not willing to go the extra steps to use the further facilities," Vonneson said.
On campus however students had a very different opinion. "This toilet just feels safer than the other toilets," said Jackob Johnson. Through our own research, indeed the safer toilet did feel better.
let's see if I can't change that.
/me grabs my waterproof camera, bottle rockets, Piccilo Petes
(with the bottoms flattened, of course) and mexican
firecrackers. meh heh heh
We asked a professional council and found that 8 out of 10 dentists agree that toilet choice should be based on security and comfortability of the toilet chosen. "Who want's to sit on a toilet made completely out of Jell-o?" asked Dr. Monroe.
The janitors on campus don't care for statistics, however. They plan to implement operation "Pooper."
Over the next several weeks they will sabotage many toilets and stalls with plastic wrap and other items of the sort in attempts to detour students into the less popular stalls. The operation will cost $200 but the faculty feel that it is worth the money.
"We are currently working on placing legal advisors on the less used toilets so people can obrain free legal advise as they do their business," said Cleo Petro, current head of the custodial division at Sierra.
Some students disagree with such tactics. "They cannot force us to use stalls and toilets we don't want to use. I'm going to relieve myself where I choose and no ammount of plastic wrap or legal advise is ever going to change that," said Jeremy Russel, whom we found tearing away at the plastic wrap in one of the toilets.
Next time you use the facilities be very cautious of traps being set out. But at the same time keep in mind if the way our toilets and stalls are being used doesn't change we could see many janitors going on toilet cleaning strikes
