Wet hands, extiguished heart.

I don’t like the new hand towels in the dispensers at work. They are not absorbent enough, although I do like the rougher texture they bring. You have to use twice as much towel to finally have dry hands. Which surely not as environmentally friendly, the rolls of towel would be used up much more quickly meaning twice the amount of sending off to get cleaned. The batches of towels need to be collected, washed industrially (I cannot imagine banks of regular washing machines doing this job), dried industrially and then delivered again. So much energy being wasted.

Why don’t we have those proximity controlled hot-air dryers? Or those funky Dyson things. I would have the Dyson’s over anything else. I am often disappointed with hand dryers in restaurants or pubs. Most of the time they just blow cold air as the heater thing doesn’t work. I don’t really like the way that water gets blown around on my hands. It is not a great feeling.
