Capitalism and its consequences have been a disaster for the human anus
Hopefully they realize it won’t save them anything when people use an entire roll every time they shit.
my company took the tp out of the bathrooms and made it available upon request when we did this. they made us ask the front desk to check out the roll of tp to deter this exact thing.
That’s so fucked up. Sorry, don’t know how else to describe it.
Kinda shitty?
That works too

Did your workplace smell considerably worse after people started only wiping half their asses?
Hopefully you all shat in a bucket for week before dumping the contents through the responsible managers sunroof?
This should be against the ADA. Many Americans have Crohn’s, ulcerative colitis, IBS, and other issues which make them need to use the restroom frequently. Using toilet paper of that quality quickly becomes painful and causes inflammation.
You have to layer the individual plys yourself. It’s a build your own toilet paper kit.
Don’t you wanna get in touch with your inner self?
Just use a lot of it I guess. It’s just gonna cost them more in the long run.
Except when it’s that thin and crappy, some of it’s going to break off no matter how much you use.
You can use a lot of it to make the company spend more money refilling, sure, but you can’t do a decent wipe with that crap, pun intended, no matter what you do with it.
Just absolutely demolish the toilet every time you use it.
Make them suck out that half-a-ply-ass-TP with oil rig equipment.
Flush a bundle of tampons wrapped in floss.
Soak a large sponge in cornstarch, wrap as small as possible with rubber bands, let dry, cut rubber bands then flush a hand full of these down the toilet.
How are you guys smuggling all those sabotage supplies to work? 😆
Gotta do the star fold with the thin stuff, get the grain aligned like plywood to keep it from splitting.
You mean like some sort of asshole origami? Assigami?
I don’t think I’ve ever wiped my ass with a star. Other than that weird weekend with Ryan Seacrest, of course.

This has got to be where the idea for transparent wood came from…
What you’re holding there is Prototype-0

“Sir, he’s found it!”
“LinkOpensChest_wave…you magnificent bastard…”
Oh look, it’s “using 3x as much toilet paper than normal because management wanted to save money so they got worthless toilet paper that only costs half as much as regular”.
When I worked at a grocery store, we had very cheap paper towels to absorb messes, and had to use a ton of them to actually clean up a mess. This is the part I never understood, you cheap out on the paper, now I have to use way more. Likely a multiple higher than how much cheaper it is. It’s only cheaper to buy, it’s very shortsighted.
Eventually they wised up and got us real, good paper towels. We used way, way less, and interestingly we only had good paper towels from that point forward.
Edit: Can’t forget to mention the extra labor costs with more time spent cleaning up a mess!
If those numbers are real, that means that going with the cheap paper ends up being 50% more expensive in the long run.
Checks out against every time a company tried to cheap out. But then, they also do not care because by the time it matters the decision makers have moved on. With bonuses!😟
Clip your finger nails before your finger breaks through that and you scrape clean your bum hole.
Just use a massive amount and if it keeps blocking the loo then oh well when the cheap paper causes too much cost then they might look into better quality stuff.
I don’t even know where they find this stuff. I’ve been broke as a mf joke and had to buy toilet paper from the dollar Tree, which was luxurious quality compared to this.

You should see/try socialist/communist toilet paper. Not only is it thin like this, it will also no-so-gently exfoliate your anus.

More like totalitarian toilet paper
Real stateless, classless societies could probably come up with something less barbaric than smearing your asshole with earth-destroying lumber
Traveling with school to Poland and Czechia in the late 90s we were told to always bring our own TP if using public restrooms. Not because of the quality, as much as because of the non-existence, of TP.
30 teens were rolling into Poland each with at least one roll of TP in the luggage. No one had to use it.
When I studied in China I was always reminded to take a tp roll with me
Once I forgot, and I realized that even in a KFC the tp was missing in the toilet
Look, I get it that it’s cool to rag on a company for being cheap and short sighted but this toilet paper is not bought to save money. They know you use more. It’s bought because thin toilet paper breaks down quickly in water, meaning rather than needing a plumber to wrestle your turd nest out of the pipes with a snake, they can hang an out of order sign on the stall for a shift and try flushing again once the “toilet paper” has completely dissolved.
Someone else explained this too. It’s still mildly infuriating when you have to use it. Can’t even pull it out without it breaking before there’s enough tissue for the job because of how the dispenser is designed.
I love these false economies that some corporate bean counter thinks saves the company money
Because you see, whenever I see this trash in a cubicle, I lovingly build my own 8-ply, using more paper and burning company time
That TP looks great for removing the static from between your cheeks.
Write an email to HR, leaving a paper trail in case they retaliate…
If they don’t solve this issue, I would just go home to take a dump and come back without clocking out… If they complain, I would tell them they need reasonable toilet paper.
You might get fired for it, so I would start applying for other jobs before attempting this.
As someone with digestive issues, I would approach HR about this saying I need an accommodation under the ADA, with said accommodation being reasonably high quality toilet paper.
I would tell them they need reasonable toilet paper.
I don’t see how any judge would follow this argument. So you’re just leaving work for a few hours every day.
A few hours? How far do you live from your work?
You should be asking how often I poop.
a terrifying amount of people consider it completely and utterly normal to drive 2 hours to work every day
2 hours? As a non-american, I sometimes forget how car-centric and spread out American cities are… I knew Americans drive a lot, but 2 hours? Please tell me that’s the combined back and forth trip, not each way…
2 hours is uncommon but not remotely unheard of. 1 hour is common. Our infrastructure is garbage.
