Restroom Pet Peeves

I'm bored, so here's my very own JennieSunshine topic of the day. What are your restroom pet peeves? Here are some of mine:

1) Someone walks in and there are 6 empty stalls, but they take the one right next to you. What's that about?

2) You walk in and encounter 'the quiet stall.' You know someone's in there, but they're not making a sound (any sound) and then as soon as you walk out, they flush. I know you're there!!!

1. urine on the seat
2. floaters in the bowl
3. toilet paper all over the floor or seat
4. talking to me while I'm trying to pee - don't speak, I'll get stage fright!

Do you want to know what mine is? I've witnessed it many of times.

When I am in the stall, someone comes in, goes to the bathroom, and walks right out, w/out me hearing them put the sink on.........b/c they didnt WASH THEIR HANDS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

There are too many pigs in this world!

Oh I have another one:

When I walk in a stall, and there is urine and TP in the bowl. Hello? Did you forget to flush....if not, then wait there till you see your crap get flushed away.

Its nasty!!!!!!!!

Arent you glad you asked??

Forgot another favorite of mine--when people are done washing their hands and just stand in front of the only available sink talking to their friends. Move biatch!

ETA: I should say that I don't really use *public, public* bathrooms like in the train station. Just at work and at restaurants. So, if I'm out of touch with the general state of nastiness, that's why

No, I actually do say 'Move biatch!' Goes over really well with the partners in my office. Just kidding

I never 'GO' in public ... just can't seem to 'let go'

Hence all my stomach problems ... I hold it in all day!

Wow! That is really gross. I remember when I worked at Starbucks in high school, this one guy would come in, get his coffee in a 'to stay' mug, grab a newspaper and head to the bathroom. At least he bought the newspaper, right?

OMG

How about when someone 'misses' the bowl althogether and leaves a special surprise all over the floor. Or how about those gosh darn feminine product mishaps where someone misses aim of the little box on the wall?

I will REALLY go there and gross you out with the infamous murder mystery special (wiped all over the front of the bowl), like if someone has their flow and they left a skid on the porcelain when they got up....

Re: Restroom Pet Peeves

I'm in HR and employees always seem to want to have a heart-to-heart with me in the ladies' room.

I mean, I don't go in there to hang out!! It's not the cool place to be - I'm there for a reason!!!

What worse is when they CONTINUE to try to talk to me WHILE I am peeing.

Which, back to Felicia's point, makes it impossible for me to ever 'GO' at work. How do you go with a bunch of people stalking your stall!?!?!?!

I worked at a law firm (no not yours JennieSunshine, at least I don't think!) where the newspapers were put on those big wooden poles. I know 2 attorneys (one was a partner!) who would take them into the men's room - and then leave them there. I actaully would wear latex gloves before changing the paper on the rod if I had to do it the next morning. Actually I think I would just throw out the paper too and buy new one! Gross me out!!!

I have to say though that our bathrooms are pretty clean. They are cleaned 2x's a day but still. No floaters, no pee on the seat and the rare tissue paper on the seat thing.

I can't stand bad smells when I walk into a public restroom, it makes me sick. This may also sound weird but I refuse to flush with my hand. I always flush with my foot. I can't stand to touch the toliet.(yuck yuck yuck yuck) In that matter I hate touching anything in public restrooms they just really gross me out in general.

Re: Restroom Pet Peeves

I guess I'm the only one who isn't bothered by women not washing their hands! My philosophy is, if you're just peeing, there's plenty of wadded-up t.p. between your hand and the pee. So you're not really touching anything. But now if you were to POO and didn't wash your hands afterwards... now THAT'S gross because you have to dig in there and wipe
But men not washing their hands afterwards is what really skeeves me because #1 they're touching their unit, and #2 they don't wipe they just shake. And then they don't wash their hands. Ewwwww....

My pet peeve is when you're trying to poo in an empty bathroom but then someone comes in and goes in the stall right next to you

my biggest pet peeve is the actual bathroom at work which has no windows or ventilation and always seems to smell like a wet dog that has been rolling through a puddle of sour milk....mmmmmmmm
