Aggressive Restroom Jazz Hands

The largest logistics nightmare in the modern world came about one Thursday when a man called Mark, who was thirty-four years old and a financial analyst, tried to make his hand move under the automated faucet in a bathroom sink.

Despite having graduated with a degree in corporate economics, Mark was now engaged in a sweat-filled psychological battle with an infrared sensor. All he wanted to do was to wash away a little bit of ink stain from his thumb; however, there was no water available, no knobs, and absolutely no compassion. He was dealing with some local corporate brutality.

Firmly determined to get his hand sensed, Mark started doing some hand movements that were getting crazier as time progressed. From slow waving, chopping of his hands with a vertical movement, to ultimately moving his arm into the sink. Nothing happened. In despair, he took a look at himself in the mirror, defeated by a mere piece of equipment that was now deciding his place as a human being. Mark couldn’t cleanse his thumb, but he definitely knew how to make aggressive jazz hands in a public restroom.
