COMPLAINING GIVES READERS of a new newsletter a framing narrative, with a hero they can identify with, right? This new publication is a departure from other publications; that's why we're asking you to read and subscribe to it. So here goes: before I launched Indignity, I worked as the politics editor at Slate. And the office restroom at Slate was intolerable. I can't honestly tell you this is the reason, per se, that I left my job. But as I weighed the decision, it was clear to me that there was something deeply liberating about the thought of never seeing that restroom again.
Speaking of changing jobs, or at least changing job *locations*, having remote work as an option (for me at least) has been a huge upgrade in the bathroom category. If you are given to measure productivity in your charges consider the time spent by employees calculating the optimum time to poop/pee while on the job.
I do not think I have a motto but it could be "Home is where you want to work, play, and poop."
