Hi Rick, We have been buying our own toilet paper here for over a year. They say if we want to come over to the main office on our own time they will give us a roll - as in one roll. The catch is that the gas costs more than the single roll of toilet paper. Never mind that a courier comes to our office several times a week with other stuff, but not toilet paper. This is not to mention paper towels. -- Regards, Pete http://pete-theisen.com/ http://elect-pete-theisen.com/ _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[email protected] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
