The Hand Dance

Sometimes modern is not better. Since sinks were invented, you opened a faucet and water flowed. Then hardware went from two handles to one handle. Then a goose neck was added for decorative looks. The only type of faucet that I find completely annoying is the movement sensor one. They can be found in commercial buildings and restaurants. Most people do not realize that they are battery operated  so when the battery is dead no water flows. People have no idea when the battery is dead, so we just keep trying to get the water to run. We move our hands left to right. Right to Left. Front to back. Back to front. When this does not work, we circle to the left then circle to the right. We do the hand washing square dance. After we have spent a minute or two doing the hand dance, we move to the right and try another sink.
