    Ok, somebody’s gotta say it and it’s gonna be me:

    Yo dawg, we put a shower in your shower so you can shower while you shower.

    You missed the part where you zone out and replay arguments you had years ago. But this time you’re smarter and always win

    Make sure you use a long extension cord to a fuse without RCD for the hair dryer, though - otherwise the constant resetting of the breaker will eat up all your time savings.

        You can still brush them in the morning. Just after you’ve eaten breakfast

          Many people I know eat breakfast either on the way to work or once they get there. I only know one guy who brushes at the office and frankly he’s clearly on the spectrum and very socially awkward anyway so people likely aren’t about to follow his lead.

            I guess it’s fine if it’s been a bit after brushing lol. But eating at work actually sounds kinda nice. Easing into work like that and starting it slow etc

          I don’t have the discipline to do that. If I don’t do it when I go in the bathroom in the morning I maybe brush them in the evening

      clearly it’s the same kind of psychopath who would also wash his car and check his email and use a hair dryer in the shower

    I don’t see how brushing your teeth in the shower saves time. Unless your brushing while you shampoo or something, you’re just making your shower longer, which wastes more water.

      I brush my teeth after applying the conditioner in my hair. Being done brushing signifies it is time to rinse out the conditioner

      I stand there enjoying the hot water and zoning out letting my mind wander. May as well do something useful while I’m just standing there anyway.

        Exactly. Plus I rather stand under the hot water instead of standing in the bathroom which is not as warm, in the cold weather.

      It’s a habit I picked up in basic training. We had 50 girls to 12 shower heads, and we really didn’t get much time for all of us to shower at all in the first couple weeks (the time constraint was relaxed after a bit though)

      The tooth brushing deal though I think was because our TI would find the tiniest speck of water in the sinks after lights out and absolutely lose his shit. So we only used the sinks to wash our hands, so we didn’t accidentally leave toothpaste in the bowl of the sink and miss it while cleaning up for the evening.

      Either way, it’s just a habit that’s stuck with me through the years.

      The water takes like a minute to heat up here, so I start brushing my teeth while it’s heating up and I finish in the shower

      Lil flippy knob at the top of the shower head to pause the water is a great water saver. You only really need the water running for like 20% of your time in the shower. I love brushing my teeth in the shower, you can get toothpaste everywhere and then just rinse it off without making a huge mess at the sink, way easier to rinse your mouth with water angled down from above than from a sink below.

      brushing your teeth in the shower

      I tried this. Turns out that sonicare toothbrushes are only water resistant and will fail eventually when used in the shower every day. 0/10 Don’t recommend.

      Otherwise, if you spend a lot of time daydreaming in the shower to begin with, this can save a few minutes.

    I’m surprised some tech company hasn’t put waterproof touchscreen devices in their employee locker room showers so that their employees can reply to email in there.

      I’ve been doing it for a while and it not only saves a lot of time, I also think i’m a lot more thorough because of it.
