I hope my lesson on trying to teach "rationing" isn't misunderstood as child abuse. I gave everyone a roll of toilet paper and told them to ration it for one month (that was May 5th). One person had just run out last night. I told them at that point, they had better ask, borrow or learn the art of bartering to make sure they did not go without because they had only a couple days left. That was over 14 hours ago. I had figured that If they do what I asked, I would be prepared to help them out in the morning.
8:30am, I hear that same person begging someone for toilet paper because instead of handling it last night like I had asked them to do, they decided to blow me off and hold it until this morning.
So instead of giving them some toilet paper for free, like I had planned, I made them pay me a dollar for a little packet of Kleenex Tissues.
I was starting to feel bad, but while investigating how this person handled my suggestions to insure they had something to use until the end of the month, I discovered that them being able to use the bathroom clearly was not of any importance. However, last night, they did ask for just enough toilet paper to BLOW THEIR NOSE!!!!
