What do you call someone who steals someone elses idea and benefits greatly from it? (thats the problem with most fables -when you dig a little below the surface you find another layer of human nature that is not so pretty :^) If I was the old janitor I would have stuffed her head in a toilet until: 1. She drank ALL the water or B. The bubbles stopped coming up! ![]() Last edited by KenWittlief : 07-05-2006 at 11:22. |

Re: This is a story of a hotel bathroom janitor
You guys think is bad. I found someone who had it much worst. He was homeless but ended up getting hired as an engineer because of an idea he had while he was homeless. http://www.history channel.com/invent/?page=semifinalists_westcott

if its so foggy the bus driver cannot see people standing at the bus stops, should the bus be running at all? or is the driver going too fast for the conditions? how does the bus turn the light off when it picks up the rider? How often do kids walking by hit the button, just to be annoying, like they do with elevator buttons or street crossing buttons, and then walk away? what if there are several lines running past one stop? how does the rider signal which bus (route) he wants? do all the busses have to stop until the right one comes along? couldnt riders along foggy routes get a 1$ AAA flashlite to flag the bus down? Wouldnt it be cheaper for the bus company to give away $1 flash lites to regular riders than to put $2000 solar powered signals at every bus stop? Maybe the bus driver DID see him but didnt want to pick up some homeless guy who looked like a bum? If its so foggy all the time how does a solar powered device get enough energy to operate? wouldnt it be better to use deep storage batteries, like the Coast Guard uses on bouys? Ok, Im done playing system engineer - its a clever idea, for some areas, under some conditions - and Im glad to see this guy pulled himself up out of a bad situation by thinking of a way to solve a unique problem :^) |

Re: This is a story of a hotel bathroom janitor
. . . . . . Well if people have the drive and the determination they can accomplish anything they put their mind to. Even if it is cleaning the toilets or helping out your FIRST robotics team. That drive and determination that janitor has is something that every person should have after coming out of the FIRST program no matter what. If you come out with that determination you will succeed at whatever you put you mind to. I believe that I have gotten that determination through my time on my team. The number of hours of putting that robot together, working on the website, or promoting your team gets you closer to your future after high school. But don't get me wrong we still need to focus on our grades as well. So just think about that.

Re: This is a story of a hotel bathroom janitor
Im not sure I would take the results of a 7th grade science fair project as irrefutable evidence
but even taken at face value: Quote:
and not that she found the same bacteria in the ice besides, bacteria isn't the only thing you need to worry about. ![]() (this is how urban myths get started: "I read somewhere that someone did a study on toilets...") Last edited by KenWittlief : 10-05-2006 at 14:04. |
