This soap is mocking us!

I'm all for being germ-conscious and healthy and all that jazz but there's something about making people panic for no reason that just irks me. My latest irritation is this :


The Lysol No-Touch Hand Soap Dispenser. What the crap is up with that shite? Let's review together the steps to effective hand washing practices :
 
  1. Turn on faucet.
  2. Press on germ-filled soap pump to dispense soap in hands.
  3. Lather anti-bacterial soap on hands.
  4. Rinse.
  5. Turn off faucet.
  6. Dry hands however suits your mood.

What's that step right after touching the filthy pump? Wash hands. What gets rid of germs? Washing hands. Why the hell should I worry that the soap pump is covered in bacteria if I'm going to wash my hands right after I touch it. Seriously?

Lookism: OK If It's at the Hands of a Multinational Corporation | Bitch Magazine

Interesting article found on Bitch Mag's website :

Lookism: OK If It's at the Hands of a Multinational Corporation | Bitch Magazine

Snippet for your thoughts :
The fact that both AA and Abercrombie have lookist hiring practices isn't all that surprising. Certainly, on the notoriety level of poorly-made over-priced clothing both companies, though they target different markets, are some of the easiest targets. AA has been in the blogosphere time and again for its creepy sexual predator of a boss (among other things!), and Abercrombie has irked middle-class parents with its soft-core porn advertising for more than a decade.
