lil_angel Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 At work the other day, one of my co-workers mentioned that he used to work for P&G. I don't remember how the conversation came up, but the next thing I know, everyone in the room was talking about diapers as he was a "diaper tester". Some one else even asked, "How did you fit in them?" To which he replied, "I think for me, they would be called depends." I was laughing so hard inside wanted to say, "Guess what I'm wearing" that I ended up wetting myself more than usual. Needless to say I had to make a quick dash to the bathroom. *giggles* Link to comment
DiaperBoyKR Posted October 11, 2008 Share Posted October 11, 2008 LoL thats awesome! Never heard anything like that come up at work myself. Must have been an interesting conversation to overhear! Link to comment
DailyDi Posted October 11, 2008 Share Posted October 11, 2008 I would have teased him... "Well, he didn't HAVE to wear them - but why waste an employee discount!" Link to comment

Angela Bauer Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 Somehow diapers need to be tested. Long ago P&G (famous for Pampers and Luvs) started Attends, which was the first disposable adult diaper to be marketed widely. Eventually P&G saw their arch rival Kimberly-Clark (Huggies and GoodNites) start Depend, which quickly became the leading adult disposable. Later P&G sold Attends to Paper Pak. My friends working for Pampers still claim P&G regrets selling Attends, but remains so bitter about Depend they are not suppose to use the word "depend" in any way. Months ago a member posted a link to the informative website of Carlos Richer, the leading technical and business consultant in the baby disposable industry. His website has a fascinating section all about scientific testing of diapers, with instructions how to do that as a science fair project. How many of us would go back to high school so we could enter a diaper testing project in the science fair? At work the other day, one of my co-workers mentioned that he used to work for P&G.

lil_angel Posted October 13, 2008 Author Share Posted October 13, 2008 Probably not me as I didn't know anything about this lifestyle in High School and I was a closed-minded prude back then.

Wetpants Posted October 13, 2008 Share Posted October 13, 2008 About 3 years ago, I was contacted by a firm that wanted to send a variety of diapers and have me test them. They had gotten my contact information from a form I filled out on being night time dribbler while I had a prostate infection. Once I got over being pissed my primary care Doc passed the info on, I was intregued. But when I called to check into it, it was not trivial. I had to wear to bed for about 2 weeks, try various prototypes, write detailed report on how they worked. Comfort, absorbancy, fit, noise......yada yada yada. Once I figured they would be sending several large boxes to my home......in plain sight of my wife.....I got kind of hesitant.... They even mentioned I could get a free supply for a couple of months and get paid...... Just too much hassle.....and embarrassment with wife (she knows and does not approve) Link to comment
