Getting the towel ready is really important. I never touch the faucet after I wash my hands -- it ain't clean! -- if I did, I'd just get my hands dirty all over again. I have the towel ready, so I dry my hands quickly after washing -- yes, the water is still running, THEN I turn the water off WITH THE TOWEL, not my nice clean hands. I use the towel to open the door, then toss into the trash. (Ever notice how the trash basket is always close to the door? That's why, folks!)
