The usage of public restrooms is dreadful but in desperate need to relieve oneself, it is required to use. The only thing that makes a public restroom worse is when there is an absence of toilet paper. On average, a person uses fifty-seven sheets of toilet paper a day and about eight to nine, give or take, per toilet use. With the help of TinkleTimes, a user will never be left without toilet paper. TinkleTimes is a universal communication that relays data to the front of the toilet paper dispenser to inform whether there is toilet paper or not, before entering the stall or the restroom itself. Not only will the user be informed of a lack of toilet paper before pursuing the stall, the custodians will also be informed when to replace the toilet paper and which stall needs it. This will reduce the amount of time the custodial staff has to work and look around for empty toilet paper dispensers which could potentially lead to less custodial staff required. With the tracking of the frequency of the toilet paper replacement, the data can then be used to estimate how often the cleaning must be done. TinkleTimes will improve efficiency in custodial staff but this may lead to staff being laid off. More resources will be required to implement TinkleTimes such as batteries and lightbulbs. TinkleTimes will prevent the awkwardness of handling one's business without toilet paper and the awkward plea of some toilet paper from the first stranger that walks in the restroom. Make public restrooms better today with the help of TinkleTimes.
