I had a fun 2 hours today --- I was in a paid focus group getting a feel for the economy. 'What is it like for you yesterday, today, tomorrow financially?' they would ask.
But before all that fun, I needed to ask - 'where is the washroom?' The receptionist did a double take and then said it was down the hall.
Now, I don't bat an eye when someone says restroom, bathroom, loo, toilet. But isn't washroom a bit better- at least I know that there is a verb in there that could (and really should) happen. Or do we mean that the number 1 and number 2 negate each other - and it's a wash. But seriously, for sure much better than taking a rest.
In the end, I don't care today- and I got paid!
