The
CEO,
president, or other high-placed company
executive who has a
private bathroom off of their office. The size of the bathroom varies greatly, but nearly all of these bathrooms have one thing in common -
shiny objects. Don't ask me why, but they always have
shiny objects. The
faucet is always a polished gold or silver (although it has to be a
Fortune 500 CEO for them to actually
be gold or silver), the mirrors often have a silver frame around them, and quite often the
wallpaper has a gold that
sparkles a little.
While thinking about executive bathrooms, the natural question is to ask why they need their own bathrooms. There are two different points of view:
- Executives are snotty and don't want to have to mingle with the "common workers".
- Executives need the bathrooms close by during long, important meetings.
While I (speaking as a
poor college student) like to think the first is more accurate, as an
optimist I would hope it is more of the second.
