At the office, the cleaning contract has been awarded to another company.
So the new cleaners came in to do their job. I've gotta say that I'm liking this new company. Even if a new broom sweeps clean (pun fully intended), the mao-mao me hasn't found a reason to nitpick. Not too much anyway.
So. When I realize that the toilet paper in the toilets at work is not longer that rough-grained ugly greyish-brown thing they try to pass off as usable, I am thrilled beyond words.
I can stop bringing my own rolls to the office!!! The toilet paper is now a soft white!! How decent. It can almost be termed as 'bathroom tissues' now.
Very mundane indeed.
BUT. The toilets at the office have a long way to go before being termed as 'washrooms'.

you are very funny. can take it as scrubbing ahemm...the dirt when u poo!!! :D
My mom is a cleaner and you wouldn't believe the kind of shitty cleaning companies there are out there.
At one army camp she wasn't given any tools to work with - no mop, no bucket. She had to go beg the army office to use theirs. Everytime she asked the supervisor for a mop or a new bucket (she had one old ratty one without a handle), she would get scolded.
It got too far one day. She finally lost it, yelled back, and quit on the spot. The army camp staff witnessed what happened and asked my mom, who naturally told him what happened. From what I heard, he sacked the cleaning company after that.
Some companies try to withhold salary; some others claim that CPF is not payable. Oh man you wouldn't believe the kind of exploitative companies there are out there.
meteor: HA HA. boo.
eve+line: oh dear. that's a terrible thing for ur mom's company to do. i'm very sure the cleaning companies 'torture' their staff. all this bulk contract thingies. it's so competitive. this one at my office seems okay. hope the staff r paid fairly.
aiyoh one big "valid" reason not to make the trip up north yet - cos in that country, 89% of the time you will find rough-grained ugly greyish-thing brown being used as toilet paper (my household included ahahaha)!
kikare: AHHHHHHHHHHHHH! why like that???????! nvm. i BRING MY OWN.
