Never Go To The Bathroom Alone!

Forgive the inevitable 'bathroom humor' or 'potty language' this post will contain, but in this case, it's appropriate.

There is a business philosophy that recommends never eating alone. The idea is that dining can be an opportunity to do business so dining alone could be considered a waste of time. But today, my proposal is to never go to the bathroom alone.

Mind you, I'm not talking about the stereotypical 'girls chat' in the ladies room, nor the senatorial hookup in the men's room.

I'm talking about going to the bathroom with a good piece of hardcopy. It's hard to find the time to read industry magazines and newspapers that deserve to be read. Between email, web sites, PowerPoint, meetings, traditional "desk time" is used up. It is said that articles in People Magazine are even designed to be read during the average bathroom break!

Hardcopy is ideal for the situation. There are too many horror stories of iPhones dropped in toilets, etc. I recommend recyclable items like newspapers and magazines, for reasons that don't need to be listed.

So once again, hardcopy has its place. And that place just may be the bathroom.

Welcome to HardcopyLove

Make no mistake... We are all about going green.

In fact, we have tools (PDF Pro & PDF Lite) to convert print jobs to PDF for viewing rather than printing and we have helped customers like the City of Baltimore drastically cut down on pages printed.

But sometimes only hardcopy will do.

Plus we want to have a little fun with the topic of printing. And that's where HardcopyLove comes in. Sometimes irreverent, sometimes informative. Always fun.

We hope you will enjoy this blog, and if you do, please check out our corporate site, www.rocsoft.com, for more tools to improve your Print Center's efficiency.
