Economic downturn has caused my company to come out with some cost saving policies, like saving energy, paper etc etc. This is good, I mean, it saves the environment and reduce cost. But I am really sceptical about the "save the earth" part.
Inside the ladies' toilet, there is a notice to inform everyone that from xxNov08 onwards, the facilities will cease to provide the hand towel paper, as part of their cost saving exercise, and to save the earth. To save the earth, hmmm.... Why can't they do that earlier? Why do they even want to save the earth now, when tons and tons of hand towel paper were already used?
Then, they would switch off most of the lights in the canteen, pull up the blinds to get natural light to come in. That's good too. But the problem is, they only do this at night. There is no natural light at night. Period. And in the morning when the sun is high and shining, they switch on all of the lights. Hmmm...
I wish they can stop using the "save the earth" thingy when what they want to save is money. It's making me very uncomfortable.
"Save the Earth my ass."
