So…we were recently briefed that our bathrooms will be cleaned once per week at the facility that I now have to report to every day. We also are left without paper towels to dry our hands. All in the name of “cost savings.”

So, tell me…….why is POTUS spending money to put on a military parade for his birthday again?

It’s sad to say, but when we’re out of paper towels, I wash my hands and then shake them in the hallway and hope they’re semi-dry by the time I get back to my office.

Eve, I do at least always wash my hands laugh

It does make for the awkward scenario ever y now and then when I run into someone in the building and shake their hand and have to give the “Sorry, I just washed my hands disclaimer.”

We’re also still on the demo list while also trying to add desks. Only in my world, lol.

WTF?

So no paper towels in perpetuity because of budget cuts? That's whack on more than one front. One of those fronts is the idiot head of your department (or whatever department) that will cut towels instead of something else. I can't think of any reasonable scenario that would have a 5-8% budget cut impact bathroom supplies.

But seriously, not even a "blow" dryer in the bathroom?

I read on reddit in the fed news sub, there was a person complaining because their office bathroom is locked and if they want to use it they have to find a janitor. That's kind of crazy.

Haha it’s insane dude. And they only clean them once a week. It’s pitiful. People honestly wouldn’t believe it unless they saw it. Some of the urinals toward the end of the week look like someone got a full Brazilian over the top of them.

We asked the four star during an all call if we could go back to pre-COVID cleaning levels and she said that she was informed no. So it’s probably touching on multiple bases at a level above a four star.

Maybe I’ll wear a trench coat with paper towels on the inside and sell them black market style.

They don't need to. Help me start this new game called "fill in the blank". I'm quite certain that you'd be very _____ good at it. It can't be censored, and if it makes someone cry it's because they're a crybaby. Please indulge, it may provide some levity around here. 🤣 I think ____ __ ___ _____ could be the next big thing on the internet.

Yeah I mean, what would I know about military expenditures? I’m sure it being on Trump’s birthday in DC has nothing to do with it. Bro, an additional PR request just came through for us to use training budget to add AF flyovers. That’s what got my attention. Why are we doing this, but I can’t even get paper towels?

But honestly, to stay out of the pig sty, why do we have to have any military parades right now when we’re trying to take care of low hanging fruit on spending?

You know damn well Adolf Twittler wanted those military parades. There’s not a single officer in any branch that want’s people to work in filth, trust me on that one. DOGE is killing our government. And fools still defend this BS. Make MAGA Mike POTUS and toss these clowns out on their butts. If you don’t, after 26 the dems will do it for you and Jeffries will be POTUS.

House votes to overturn Biden-era rule limiting bank overdraft fees to $5, sends to Trump to sign
Currently, the nation’s biggest banks take in roughly $8 billion in the charges every year, and sued to keep their current overdraft fee structure.

You must have forgotten that banks are too big to fail. But not too big to rip off their customers. I mean it's a law to protect consumers from being ripped off. Did you think it would stand with this congress?

US egg prices increase to record high, dashing hopes of cheap eggs by Easter

U.S. egg prices increased again last month to reach a new record-high of $6.23 per dozen despite President Donald Trump’s predictions, a drop in wholesale prices and no egg farms having bird flu outbreaks.

I've bought millions and millions and millions of eggs. They've never gotten cheaper before Easter... as in never. So there was no way they were going to this year when there is a shortage.

Every year, like clockwork, Valentines day means egg prices go up until after Easter.

Non story.

I didn't gloss over anything, my response was for the adults in the room. Unless you just crawled from under a rock, or are as dumb as a box of them, you already knew about the worst bird flu in modern history. The one that has been going on for over two years and resulted in the culling of over 168 million birds. Oh, wait, nevermind.

We can. Itching about egg prices has pretty much run it's course though imo. We won't see stable prices till summer. If we've learned anything about supply chains through COVID, it's that all markets yo-yo around for a bit after an 'off the charts' type disruption.

There are parts of this that make no sense in my neck of the woods...

X-Large at Wal-Mart ~ $6.80
X-Large Free Range Brown at my local family-owned Sparkle today ~ $3.99

Seems like one of those stores would have much more buying power. wink

Egg prices increase to record high despite Trump promises and curbing bird flu outbreak
Politics Apr 10, 2025 10:47 AM EDT
U.S. egg prices increased again last month to reach a new record-high of $6.23 per dozen despite President Donald Trump’s predictions, a drop in wholesale prices and no egg farms having bird flu outbreaks.

The increase reported Thursday in the Consumer Price Index means consumers and businesses that rely on eggs might not get much immediate relief. Demand for eggs is typically elevated until after Easter, which falls on April 20.

Trump is claiming credit for plummeting egg costs. So why haven’t you noticed lower prices?

“When I took it over, eggs were through the roof, and now eggs are down,” President Donald Trump said.

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said at a press briefing Monday that falling egg prices show the administration is working quickly and diligently to solve America’s affordability crisis. “Wholesale egg prices, they continue to fall. A dozen eggs are now $3.10 cheaper since January 24. That’s a 47% decrease overall,” Leavitt said. “So I think the American people do have great reason to be optimistic about this economy.”

I agree. Any normal adult knows better.
