Subject: [Libs-Or] WARNING: touchless hand sanitizer machine alert! 

Hello:Fun times in Seaside. Part of our morning protocol is to test the touchless hand sanitizing dispensers.  Oddly, neither machine was functioning this morning.We switched out the C batteries.  Still not working.  Hurm...In the past, we had several new boxes of worthless/expired C batteries.  Maybe we were putting bad batteries back into the machines?*Our office hand soap dispensers are also touchless and run on C batteries.  Oddly, neither of the hand soap dispensers were working this morning, either.What are the odds?  Infinitesimal.After trying every battery in the building, we made a special trip to Rite-Aid for fresh, fancy, Duracell C batteries.Even with Duracells, all four dispensers still not working!!!(Insert foul language here).To make a long story longer....we miraculously deduced that the touchless laser switches do not respond to jet-black nitrile gloves.Both persons attempting to fix the machines were wearing black gloves.  The batteries didn't need replacement.  The gloves needed replacement.Fun fact:  they work just fine with blue gloves.Don't be like Seaside.  Test your soap and sanitizer machines without black gloves.TLDR,dan cawleyhand sanitizer technician
