Grandma is a Lipstick Bandit

[dmcglu82]

This happened to my co-worker but she passed the story on to me when I got in today. A older women say 60-70 wearing hot pink lipstick asks my co-worker to use the restroom. Customer goes back and uses the restroom, comes out thanks my co-worker and leaves. My co-worker then needs to use the restroom so she goes back she enters the bathroom and sees written on the mirror in hot-pink lipstick "THIS BATHROOM IS A FILTHY SHAME". The nerve of this women to say that we bust our butts around here to clean the place for people and this is the thanks we get. We can only hope a resident of Nanavut finds her lips attractive and kidnaps her for their pink camo collection lol.

Between this and the other bathroom story posted today, I'm thinking all "requests" to use a bathroom, if they must be allowed, should be escorted. We walk you there, we wait outside, and when you're done, we take a look. Anything like either of these stories, and you're not leaving our store till it's cleaned up.

I completely agree. The public and store toilets don't seem to be a good combination. lol

Gotta admit though, writing it in lipstick is pretty funny.

I suppose it is kinda funny, but if you're going to complain about the bathroom being dirty, must you contribute to the mess in the process?

[malmalthekiller]

Yeah, she just made it dirtier.

Plus, if she's planning on using that lipstick again, she might as well lick the dirty bathroom mirror while she's at it.

[Gabrielle Proctor]

What a bitch. She should have told someone that the bathroom was dirty. Geeze, how passive agressive.

[bainsidhe]

Gee, I dunno. Yeah it's a pain to clean, but the fact that she added who knows what kind of germs from a public bathroom mirror, well that kind of tickles me.

[Mnemjian]

My question is, why is an elderly lady wearing hot pink lipstick? That in itself must have been pretty amusing

[RecoveringKinkoid]

Geez, I don't know about any of you, but if the bathroom was such a filthy shame, what was she doing rubbing her LIPSTICK all over it???

Heck, even if it wasn't a filthy shame. It's a public crapper, she's gonna put that lipstick on her MOUTH now?????

At least the old broad used it on a mirror, we had an old lady use one on another customer's car at Kinko's (I know, I know, we don't condone and all that, but the guy had it coming.) .

I say, if not required by law. No public restrooms. They had their chance, they lost the privilege.

I agree too, however, maybe there should be a sign-in sheet at the door, much like you'd find for employee bathroom checks. This sign-in sheet would have their name, address and phone number and it must be filled out (and proven correct by looking at their ID) until they can use the toilet. This way, if they mess up the bathroom you force them to clean it immediately, and you have their info for a piece of mind should other problems ensue after they complain about wiping up after themselves. If they refuse to give you their info, then they are immediately escorted out of the building and put on the "No Pee List" (much like the No Fly List), since you know they'll make a beeline to the fitting rooms to relieve themselves if denied access to the bathroom!

I agree with Recovering Kinkoid about the barf factor here.

Also, and I'm betting that the little old lady doesn't know this, but some lipsticks will leave a permanent mark behind on mirrors. As in, she will have just destroyed private property so that she can be a smart alek in driving her 'cleanliness' report home.

My brother once wrote on my sisters very large dresser mirror in hot red lipstick, thinking it would be hilarious, and it was, for about an hour. Then it was an annoying reminder for as long as she had the mirror, and then I did when she moved out, that his brilliant joke wasn't so hot.

I am playing spore with my kids. (mostly cause I really like it) My people are the 'Nunavites'. I thank all of the folks here on CS, for enlightening me to the nature of the species, so I could really make them come to life.

The following is a list of their attributes:

• Highly aggressive in all situations (even when unwarranted)
• Frequently forgets where their home planet is
• Unable to distinguish between enemies and allies
• Can't seem to find their pants

that's what i was thinking

what a bitch

if she had a problem with the room she should have said something instead of writing on the place. graffiti is graffiti regardless of your reasons or substance used.

tho i guess now you'll recognize her ... if she ever comes back in?
cos then you can tell her "no" if she asks to use it again
