Subject: Creating a "Friendly" Office Environment - Step Two

The bathrooms.
Need I say more? I shouldn't have to -- but unfortunately that's not the case. Here are some "restroom rules" courtesy of an elementary school handbook. Please let me know if there are any other topics regarding our internal environment that you would like me to address.

[Note: This handbook was created for grade schoolers, however, it was sent out, via email, to a staff comprised of people 22 and older.]
