Somebody Has to Make It

Look around you. Everything that is there (pretty much) has to be made somewhere. Which brings us to: A toilet paper factory. Somebody has to make, so somebody has to work there.

Who makes sure the end of the toilet paper has just a little bit of glue on it so the roll won't unwind before you get ready to throw it in a tree...or whatever you do with your toilet paper? Even if it's automated, somebody has to make sure the bottle's full of glue...or whatever.

Who does quality control? How do you do quality control on toilet paper?

Is there vintage toilet paper? I get this vision of a toilet paper being like fine wine. The vintnor, with tears in his eyes... "It is... It is the finest paper I have ever made. Unpretentous...just a slight bouquet...it feels like the down on a newborn sheep."

OK. That's just about as far as I want to go with this one.
