Why do people fail to wash their hands after using restroom?

Senior systems engineer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Not many. Pension is ending, high deductible medical plans, average vacation time, below average sick time,

Cons

Many new appointments of Directors who are not qualified. management needs to learn how to speak to employees, not talk down to employees. Not very advanced in the software tools and too many are homegrown obsolete technology. Lots of people fail to wash their hands after using the restroom - this is down right gross. Paper towel dispensers in restrooms are frequently out of paper so personnel have no way to dry their hands.
