Office Tissues: Why Do They Suck?

Every single office I’ve ever worked in, ever, has had inferior tissues.

We’re talking 2-ply if you’re lucky, thin as can be, rough as sandpaper stuff here. Why is this? I know that money is tight and all. But don’t you want to give your employees something nice?

I’d like to add that the current tissues I have at work are called Heavenly Soft. This is a lie.

I swear you read my mind from 5 minutes ago – I’m sitting here with a nasty head cold, blowing my nose on what feels like sandpaper. My nose is raw, and it’s only 10:30a.

I’d go to the bathroom and raid that, but that stuff is so thin…well, no analogies really needed there.

What is this then?

The Daily Ping is the web's finest compendium of toilet information and Oreo™® research. Too much? Okay, okay, it's a daily opinion column written by two friends. Did we mention we've been doing this for over ten years? Tell me more!
