A big thank you to all public places, restaurants, hospitals, doctor offices, etc. for having a wastebasket near their bathroom doors. Why wash your hands only to touch a dirty door knob? Should you see a paper towel near a wastebasket on the floor where someone missed, that could be me, as it doesn't make sense to open a dirty door with clean hands. Thank you.
