A posh girl’s school was recently faced with an
unusual problem.
A number of 12 year old girls had started to use lipstick
and would put it on in the bathroom.
That was fine, but after they put it on they would press their lips to
the mirror leaving dozens of little lip prints.
Every night the cleaner would remove them and the next
day the girls would put them all back.
Finally the Principal decided something had to be done. She called all the girls to the bathroom and
met them there with the cleaner. She
explained that all these lip prints were causing a major problem for the
cleaner having to remove them every night … you can imagine the yawns from the girls.
To demonstrate how difficult it was, she asked him to
show the girls how much effort was required.
He took a long-handled mop, dipped it in the toilet
and cleaned the mirror. Since then there
have been no more lip prints.
