One day I was walking down the hall at work and a woman I knew from another department was walking down the hall the other way toward the public hallway that crossed the entire hospital. Just as I was about to enter my department, I turned and saw, a two-foot long piece of toilet paper hanging from the waistband of her skirt. Just hanging down, perfectly straight.
Normally in these situations I freeze and stupidly watch the oncoming train wreck in in slow motion, but this time I sprung into action.
“Britney–you have something on the back of your skirt!”
Needless to say Britney was quite happy to have only been seen by one person in a security-locked hallway instead of THE ENTIRE HOSPITAL.
But, it’s not like we became fast friends after that or anything. In fact later she would become one of Those Users who make it onto The List.
Nonetheless, I’m still glad to have saved someone from a fate that pretty much ensures you have to quit your job, change your name, go off-grid, and move to Malawi.
