The brainstorms of life from 30,000 feet

Yup, these are my clients...

I was talking with a former colleague a while back and he mentioned that while he worked for this company who was a client of mine they sent out a memo or posted it on the intranet. Again, I am not making this up... It actually happened (You can't make this stuff up).

Please Conserve Water

Conserving water is part of a total mindset of environmental responsibility. The U.S., with less than five percent of the world's population uses 25 percent of its natural resources. Please help
by conserving water. Be aware of how much water you use/ Awareness is the first step in conservation. The average person uses fifty gallons of water per day on the following activities:
Toilet.................................. 19 gallons per day*
Bathing & hygiene............... 15 gallons per day
Laundry............................... 8 gallons per day
Kitchen................................ 7 gallons per day
Housekeeping....................... 1 gallon per day
TOTAL................................ 50 gallons per day
*At work, the two greatest wastes of water from toilets are malfunctioning fixtures (toilets don't flush properly) and the "courtesy flush". "Courtesy flushers" use many extra gallons of water to ensure that others in the restroom don't experience any odors they created. While their intent is good, the result is extreme waste of one of the world's most precious natural resources. Please don't "courtesy flush". If the fixture isn't working properly, report it to your Real Estate Operations Manager.

I applaud their efforts, while staying away from their restrooms.
