Trouble TTC

Would you drink it?? (N3TR)

The water at my work had a ban put on it last week. You were supposed to boil before drinking, due to clostridium bacteria found in it... The ban was lifted on Friday. I however am uber grossed out about it and have been drinking bottled and even washing my hands with bottled water....

    This! 

  • I'm horrible and don't drink much water.  I stick to coffee & pop mostly.  But no, I'd probably shy away from it.  But washing your hands?  I'd totally do that.  Who wants the hasle of paying good money just to wash up.  Oh but I might use hand sanitizer afterward because I always used to keep that at work...you never know who didn't wash their hands and then touched the doors.

  • After hurricane Ike we weren't allowed to drink our water or even brush our teeth with it.  A water ban can occur anytime the system is comprimised.  I wouldn't drink it for a while (maybe a few weeks) at least.  You can be assured that once there is a problem they are now testing it like crazy. 

    Good luck!
