When I was a medical student I had a professor who told me the system he and his friend used to decide which residency program they were going to choose. They took a sample of toilet paper from the residents' lounge in each hospital they visited. When they got home they "sampled" each one, and chose the hospital whose paper was softest.

Their reasoning was that this would tell them how much the hospital administration cared about the welfare of its resident physicians. Now, I'm not sure about the validity of that particular method of inquiry, but having survived three years in a residency program where the residents were NOT cared about, I think they were exactly right to focus on that question.
