Restroom documentation is instrumental to world domination. Nobody likes doing it, but sometimes we need to keep the bigger picture in focus. Even one improperly documented restroom visit could result in catastrophe.

I will point out, however, that you may be making the common mistake of overlooking instruction 207(b) which states “Line 504(a/9 sub. 3C), ‘Amount of liquid hand soap/sanitizer,’ may be rounded to the next nearest centigram or omitted altogether (please signify with ‘N/A’ or ‘not applicable’ entry) when a restroom provides solid soap or powder.” I’ve known experienced operatives who overlooked this simple and time-saving rule. I hope this advice helps in your future reports.

Another common mistake to avoid, that may expedite your reporting: per instructions 38(b) and 106 (second revision), toilet paper (line 23(d(4))) can be reported either in metric centimeters or (believed it or not!) as sheets. Instead of measuring your toilet paper usage with a tape measure or ruler, it’s sufficient to simply enter the number of squares you used. If I recall correctly, Jeri, you’re aware of this (excellent penmanship in your reports, by the way–do you use a calligraphy pen by chance?), but other UCF members may find this a useful time-saver as well.

Hope that helps.

I’m so proud.
