Breakfast with a show

At breakfast this morning there were two English speakers at a neighboring table. It was pretty quiet, so I shamelessly listened in on their conversation. To my extreme amusement, one asked the other his plans for the day and the response was to do "DOA." "What's that?" was followed by a not-too-unrecognizable description of a design of experiments (ahem, a DOE). I had to hide my laughter behind my coffee cup and a napkin. Then I had to firmly repress the urge to jump up and correct him (a full factorial in 5 factors with 2 levels has 32 runs, not 64, for example) or admonish him to be sure and randomize. He obviously was in the early stages of learning.

You never know who is listening.

Another bathroom designed by a man

Evidently they are everywhere.

The stall doors open inward and do not fit properly. I have to yank hard to shut the stall door. The stall walls go to ground on each side with the door reaching well above my head and only stopping about 2 inches above the floor. This is nice for privacy, but disconcerting when I realized during my first visit that there is no handle on the door. Think about it. Inward opening, the door sticks, the lock is on the frame and does not connect with the door AND THERE IS NO HANDLE. I have found the only way to exit is to stand on my toes and grab the top of the door to yank it inward. It is not an easy reach, and I have to wonder what shorter women do.
