Trapped


One of my worst fears has just been realized. I was getting out of the stall in the WHM shower room - the tiny WHM shower room - when I noticed something small and dark and moving around on the wall. I froze. I was wet and naked and I didn't have my glasses on and I was positive that I wasn't alone in the bathroom. Slowly, slowly, I reached for my glasses. Sure enough, there was a big, ugly roach clinging to the wall. I opened the stall door to use it as a barrier between me and It, quickly dressed, grabbed my bag and workout gear, and rushed out of the bathroom. Now normally, if I find a roach in my room, I leave the room and return ten minutes later - the bug is usually gone. But being trapped in the bathroom with one is not a precedent I want to set so before beginning my work tasks for the day, I located the Raid and killed that bug dead!...I feel a lot better now knowing the It can't go tell all It's buddies where they can find a peep show.

They say that for every roach you see, there are 50 lurking around that you do not see.

Something to think about next time you'r taking a shower...

Maybe I should leave the carcass in the bathroom as a warning to any little critters that may be lurking out of sight.

I have been hearing way too many roach stories from you associated with WHM (and their bathroom)! Has your office manager considering improving your pest control agreement with whomever is contracted to take care of that kind of thing?

And Stepan's right about how many you *don't* see.
