Toilet Paper Testing Requires 6-Month Training Period
Toilet paper testers undergo six months of training before applying for the job to ensure they can assess the quality of the toilet paper effectively. They need to understand various aspects such as how it feels in hand, its wiping effectiveness, and texture variations based on individual needs.
