It's a funded mandate.

Someone's about to get paid.

Interesting to see who gets the contracts.

I actually do approve of the bit which says that floor-cleaning implements must have handles, so that the cleaning ladies don't have to be on hands and knees. But the fitted sheets bit is fucking stupid.

AND ALSO, California is the state in which I encountered BEDBUGS

So I would rather they had a mandate that sheets must be white, or that they must be inspected daily.

There's not as much political patronage money in that.

So, i'm kind of confused.
are you suggesting that there's somebody that's lined up to sell fitted sheets to all the lodging establishments (i assume this means hotels/motels, no?) that currently use a flat sheet on the bottom?
that seems odd.... why wouldn't they just buy them online from whoever is cheapest?
and who the hell uses flat sheets on the bottom anyways?

I've heard hospitals do. I know in basic we did. I've heard that they are used in camps as well.

Dunno.

All I know is, anytime there's a funded mandate, money starts falling into peoples' pockets when it maybe shouldn't.

hmm. yeah
being a military brat, i was taught by my dad to do 'hospital corners' on my sheets, but that was just for the top sheet, as we always had fitted bottoms.  i can see military eschewing the fitted sheet as an extravagance.
I'd be surprised it hospitals still used flat sheets on bottom, though.  it seems like they would be sufficiently less efficient to offset any cost savings.  unless there's some functional advantage i'm overlooking.
what do you mean by 'camps'?

Summer camps, or so I've been told.
