Specialized Careers Are Weird



Are there really professional hand-washers out there? 


Really hoping this doesn't devolve into some insensitive OCD joke here, Jeremy.


No, no.  Nothing like that.  This has to do with something that I've seen popping up now and again around public sinks.  
This is only getting worse...


Soap dispensers!  They've been around for quite some time, but only recently, I've started to see a certain type of soap dispensers from one manufacturer's line of "Professional" products.  To this, I have to ask...who out there is a professional hand washer?  Sure, there are plenty of jobs where washing your hands is an integral part of your career, doctors being one notable one, but to truly be a professional at using a hand soap dispenser requires a job that I don't really think exists.  Nobody goes to work, washes their hands for 8 hours, then congratulates themselves on a job well done, taking home a healthy paycheck.  It just doesn't happen.

So who are these "Professional" soap dispensers being marketed to?
