Black Monday

We all know that the Friday after Thanksgiving is called "Black Friday" because of the chaos that kicks off the holiday shopping season.

(Yeah, I know that the name actually refers to fact that it's when retailers traditionally push their books into "the black" for year, but anybody who has actually fought their way through a Gap post-turkey day knows that the mood is pretty dark.)

Well, for office bathrooms all over the country, the first workday after the Thanksgiving holiday is known as "Black Monday."

Your average cubicle dweller has been stuffing their face for four days solid (thank you very much, leftovers.) In other words, the factory has been working overtime and there is backlog of product ready to ship!

I hope our plumbing can handle it.
