In a Dilbert World

Due to budget limitations (I guess somebody's gotta pay for that war), the office cleaning contract has been cut back, meaning the laying off of two very nice people--which totally sucks, and the cutting back of some basic services. With regard to the latter, someone has decided that we need our offices dusted and vacuumed twice a week but the trash emptied only once a week. I just don't think anybody accumulates enough dust or carpet lint to warrant that much dusting and vacuuming. Meanwhile, my trashcan accumulates a whole lot of trash daily. Sigh.

Apparently I was one of many who proffered the suggestion that this approach be re-evaluated. So maybe there's hope yet.
