Germs

I was counting money at work last night with the girl that works in the cash office. She started talking about how many germs are on paper money and what illnesses you could contract. Then she said,

"It's like holding a turtle."

WHAT!!!??? Where did that come from? Of all the dirty, germy things to compare money too, who pulls out a turtle? Why not say it's like licking a toilet seat or hugging the homeless. Turtles are cute.

After we counted I immediately washed my hands. Who knows how many germs that girl is carrying around.

What about the germs on a log book in a cache. Those things have to be nasty!

What about keyboards? Toilet seats are clean by comparison. I have no desire to lick either one. Or turtles. Or money. Unless it's a stack of Benjamins. Then I'll make an exception.

Everyone knows that turtles are known for hanging out in big piles of cash.. which is how they get so germy.
