Where Has All The Lipstick Gone?
Posted by: tz8cy5 <tz8cy5@...>
According to a radio report, a middle school in Oregon was faced with an
unique problem. A number of girls were beginning to use lipstick and
would put it on in the bathroom. That was fine, but after they put on
their lipstick they would press their lips to the mirror leaving dozens
of little lip prints. Finally the principal decided that something had
to be done.
She called all the girls to the bathroom and met them there with the
custodian. She explained that all these lip prints were causing a major
problem for the custodian who had to clean the mirrors every day. To
demonstrate how difficult it was to clean the mirrors, she asked the
custodian to clean one of the mirrors.
He took out a long-handled squeegee, dipped it into the toilet and then
used it to clean the mirror. Since then there have been no lip prints
on the mirror.
