At work, in the restrooms, they installed "Suggestion Boxes." These boxes are abbnormally large for their purpose and are made from plexi-glass. I don't know if these boxes are for any and all suggestions related to my place of slave employment or if they are for suggestions related only to the facilities. Either way no paper is supplied, so if you need to make a suggestion, you have to scribble it on some toilet paper, or at least that's what i did. My first suggestion: "get a sewer system that allows for the flushing of toilet paper."

Also at work, they put in boxes of condoms with a "memo" urging the workers to use condoms, prevent stds, etc. (Cambodia didn't have a problem with stds until UNTAC rolled through in the early 1990s). Within a day, all the condoms were gone. They have not been replaced. Apparently condom use is no longer important.

I know my posts have been slow of late, but its not entirely my fault - they blocked blogger at work. normally this wouldn't be a huge problem, but internet access outside of work in cambodia is like a slice of pizza in cleveland - you can find it, but you're gonna pay far too much money for it and you're going to be disappointed.
