I never did understand why it was supposed to be MEN that were responsible
|
|||
|
|
for the keeping of the toilet seat! Some women consistently complain (note
|
|||
|
|
the SOME) when men leave the seat up, and also complain when men don't put
|
|||
|
|
the seat up to begin with. Now I find the second disgusting, no one wants
|
|||
|
|
to sit on a wet toilet seat. But if the last person in the bathroom was
|
|||
|
|
female, the men are expected to lift the seat.
|
|||
|

|

OK, I didn't post this last time it came around, but here is the
|
|||
|
|
sign I have in my bathroom.

As an historical note, I left a military sub-contractor (which is why
|
|||
|
|
the notice is cast in Milspeak) and lived for 3 weeks with a friend of
|
|||
|
|
the female persuasion, who constantly got on my case to keep the seat
|
|||
|
|
down. I vowed revenge when I got my own apartment, so

NOTICE TO USERS
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
The Water Closet Site Administrator (WCSITADMIN) for this
|
|||
|
|
commode equipment unit has elected a Most Recently Used (MRU)
|
|||
|
|
protocol with regard to the seat placement for the equipments
|
|||
|
|
at this site.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
All users are requested to make determination as to their
|
|||
|
|
gender and intended use before attempting to use these equipments.
|
|||
|
|
Users should then determine the desired seat placement, based on
|
|||
|
|
this information, and chart 1, attached. Having made this deter-
|
|||
|
|
mination, users should compare the actual seat placement, as
|
|||
|
|
determined by direct observation, with the desired seat placement
|
|||
|
|
determined above, and take the appropriate action, based on chart
|
|||
|
|
2, attached.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
It should be noted that the MRU protocol confers the following
|
|||
|
|
advantages vice the more commonly attempted INTHAMITH protocol:
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Worst-case turn-around is improved, as in no case are
|
|||
|
|
two seat-adjustments required.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Worst-case throughput is improved, for above reasons.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Average-case throughput (random gender and use) is
|
|||
|
|
improved, as no compensating adjustments are performed.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Average-case throughput as measured is improved due to
|
|||
|
|
uneven gender distribution among users of a given equipment.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Wear and tear on the adjustment mechanism is reduced,
|
|||
|
|
yielding a greater MTBF.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
User feedback is immediate and automatic, yielding a
|
|||
|
|
higher compliance rate.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Comments should be addressed to the WCSITADMIN.
