When we first set up our conference rooms at work, they all had new matching chairs. But, as time went on, people swapped their old office chairs for the new ones in the conference rooms. So, after a few years, the conference rooms housed some of the grossest looking chairs. Some were so bad that people refused to sit in them.

Well, recently, all of the old conference room chairs were replaced with nice new matching chairs. 50 in all. But, of course, people started swapping their old office chairs with the new ones in the conference rooms. So, it will only be a matter of time before all of the new chairs are replace with old grubby ones once again.

If the administration really wanted to get on top of this, they would offer new chairs to any one who wanted one. That way the conference room chairs would stay pristine.
