Me, too. But in those restrooms that only have the dryer (ARRRRGHHH!!), I use my elbow.

Or sometimes my shirt or sweater is long enough to use on the handle. I try not to touch handrails with my hands, but just rest my elbow a little in case I lose my balance. But even with constant hand washing I was sick on New Year's Eve and New Year's day.

You guys want to know a real germ center? I work at a call center, and that place is like a petri dish!!

For starters, we all share computers. We share desks. We share ear and mouth pieces (unless clever, criminal minded people like me steal a pair of brand new pieces and carry them in my bag--heh heh). When I virus hits that place, it will literally take people out in rows. Thankfully, I never really get any bugs, since I wipe down my station with those Clorox wipes before I start work. This Norwalk stuff swept through that place like a tornado about a month ago. But I didn't catch it!
