Public Restrooms...

They need music. At least soft jazz. I dont' know how many times at my work restroom alone I have heard people sound like their colons are wrestling with Randy Savage.

It's unreal.

Guy comes storming in, slams the stall door so hard I thought the hinges were going to fall off and he proceeds to assume the "position" faster than any college male would say yes to a proposition from Scarlett Johansen.

Not to mention the panting... really? Are you weight training in there or are you aiming at breaking a world record for the fiercest turd?

I don't know how many more violent fecal explosions I can take.

Gross topic I know, but does anybody else feel that there should be some sort of low volume music to break the silence?

I feel sorry for my employer's toilet bowls. :(

This will probably get locked. :twisted:

    You could always sing loudly next time someone comes in?

    I'm too horrified to sing... seriously. That sounded really unhealthy. :(

    hahahaha!!!!

    I also hate when they are making sound like that and are also on the phone....

    maybe they should pipe in band marching music with big bass drums and tubas, that may help. or songs like the 1812 overture......

    I have honestly never gone in a public restroom and hear people panting or making a big disturbance. Are you by any chance only using public restrooms located inside of or next to Mexican food restaurants?

    I am a custodian, not by choice or trade, but the money and benefits are good. Anyway, I've seen things in my 8 years of cleaning toilets that you wouldn't believe. In fact, most normal people would throw up and run for their lives! I've become immune to the devastation some people can bring to a public restroom, but you wouldn't believe it but women and children are actually the most disgusting perpetrators where this issue is concerned. Men just make disgusting noises and leave raunchy aromas, but they're generally clean compared to the "fairer sex!" Women are beasts in the bathroom, with their tampons and method of hoovering! Oh, and if you've wondered why some public restrooms are always wet, it's because sometimes all we can do to clean up a disaster is to hose it down and pour bleach on everything. We janitors care about peoples comfort and cleanliness but it's actually the public themselves who are to blame for this insanity. So the next time you decide to jam a roll of paper in a toilet bowl, piss on the floor, crap on the seat, or vomit in a sink and leave it there... please remember that a person, just like you has to clean that mess up, and it's not fun! I cry myself to sleep most nights! Oh the horror, THE HORROR!!! :shock:

    There used to be an Italian restaurant that I loved going to...I went to the bathroom and mid-stream I hear a booming male voice speak something in Italian...I hurried up thinking I was in the wrong one...then I hear a female voice say something in Italian...apparently it was some sort of radio soap opera or something that they play only in the bathroom

    and dc, some places here pump music into the washrooms...some places, just a little too loudly

    anybody ever be in a stall, and someone else tries with much effort to open the stall you are in when clearly there are many other available stalls? maybe it's just me.... :?

    I'm glad this thread has brought people joy, but this is a mega issue here at my work. I don't know what they're putting in the water, or what that the catering company does with their food, but it seems like everyone is on the hershey highway.

    The coffee here is terrible too, absolutely horrendous in taste, odor, and quality... that's got to account for something right?

    The panting.... my God, it haunts me.... who takes such a massive crap that they are panting??

    Working out and panting? Sure
    Sex and panting? Completely understandable
    Eating and panting? On a case my case basis, maybe...

    Shitting = panting? That must be a doozie...

    I guess that's what you get when you're not in a comfortable house bathroom with towels to bite?

    Don't get me started on the urinals... the floors beneath are sticky...

    Either I work with a collective group of men who don't know how to aim worth shit, or everyone is getting drunk as hell and I didn't get the memo.

    I've never understood people plugging the toilets with toilet paper. How much TP do you need? If it's that much, maybe you should just wear a diaper and then take a bath.

    Some of the things I've seen in public restrooms makes me wonder if people really ever do grow up...

    Is it too soon to joke about Ben's misfortune? It was an easy jab.

    Reminds me of the first time I saw a phone in a hotel shitter.

    It almost made me want to do both just to say I did. Thanks to cell phones, this is not a luxury anymore. :(

    ben gives me the oogies...ironically enough this happened in the bathroom at the Alcatraz restaurant...I went in, there are probably 15 stalls, I chose the last one (for some reason people also like to talk to me from the other side of the stall). Nobody else is in there then I hear someone come in, they try to open the door, 'um, duh, it's locked :roll:'...they start banging on it, shaking the s#it outta the door, I yell, 'it's locked because somebody is in here trying to take a nap!', they don't say anything, and choose a different stall, so I finish, flush and wash. On my way out, I turned off the lights in the windowless room.

    I have no idea...I expected a scream of some sort...just so I could feel a little good about being evil. :mrgreen:

    and to the 'facilities management' person...yes women are messy, but I never in my live have ever had a more disgusting bathroom than when I started sharing one with a male. I claimed the guest bathroom as mine, and it's clean (not sparkling, but clean)...my other half...well lets just say that the bathroom in the movie Trainspotting looks spotless compared to his. :sick:
