Toilet paper

   / Toilet paper #383  
Growing on a farm that grew alfalfa mostly, we used hay hooks alot, never had a serious accident with one. We had some blisters from using them usually on first hay cutting.. normal use is not swinging towards your body, but rather in front of it.

Never stuck myself either. Got some sweat in the eyes though.

I had a hay crew when I was a Junior and Senior in High School. Bought a 1954 Chevy ton and a half truck with a flatbed. Bought a bale loader to hitch to the side of the truck. Me and two other guys. Hired the prettiest girl in my High School to drive the truck. Told her she could wear whatever she wanted. One particular day we hauled and stacked in a barn 1,000 square bales. Brenda sun bathed on a blanket wearing a bikini while we unloaded the truck. Best business decision I've ever made in my life!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :cool:

Ever see any of the crew?

Georgia Pacific is NOT running 2.5 times the normal. They can't. They already run 24/7 and don't have spare toilet paper making lines just sitting around. Every article I've read this week with interviews of Georgia Pacific officials, say their orders are up by 2x, but they cannot increase production.

However, what they are seeing is that when the personal home use demand increases the demand at hotels, conference centers, and businesses drops. It's still the same amount of TP. Georgia Pacific says they have enough TP in their warehouses and produce enough at their factories to cover any needs.
Ga Pac also runs warehouses...The one i pick up near my house typically loads and unloads 80 trucks per day. The week of my previous post, they were over 200 trucks incoming and 200 outbound so in my mind, that is 2.5 times normal . 24/7 operating can always be improved, by just fixing the bottlenecks and decreasing lost time.
