??? Why is it so crazy to imagine people let a tap run for two minutes?
Because that is an absurdly long time to watch water run when you’re not using it for anything. I feel like “turn off the tap when brushing your teeth” would be inherently obvious to people brushing the full two minutes.
What’s more likely to me is people brush for about 15 seconds and don’t bother turning it off because it’s such a short period of time.
I feel bad enough when I'm letting the tap run during dishes when it's taking me a second to scrub something lol
Get one of those swiveling heads with a shutoff. Game changer for sure.
