Same crap, different day

There's a reason I always, always wipe off the seat before I use it. I've gotten a nasty, wet surprise one too many times from a seat that looked dry.

It's even worse when you know for certain it was one of your co-workers. In the pharmacy, we have our own bathroom. I know exactly who uses it. So when you go in there and the seat's wet....

i dont know who it was...this bathroom requires a key. and its usually either me or the Rx opening it, and i know the Rx hates to open it (oh my a whole 2 foot walk)

i dont think our pharmacist would be THAT lazy...

With an employee bathroom you know with all certainty that a coworker is the culprit for not only splatters on the seat but also for unflushed toilets that contain a lot more than just pee. And that happens quite a lot.

if this were an employee bathroom it would be sooo much easier! lol

but this is customer/employee

Our employee bathroom is upstairs adjacent to the lockers and break room so customers have no access to that part.

I admit that just out of curiosity I have stood in a stall and watched the toilet flush. Mall toilets tend to be very enthusiastic flushers and I've seen with my own eyes that they splatter up onto the seat when they flush. I was inspired to watch because the stuff I'd mopped off the seat was not yellow. :P

So maybe there aren't as many hoverbutts out there as you think.

Huh. So there are a lot of women who will SQUAT to do their business in the ladies' room, and thus leave a mess behind?

Now I understand why I used to get so many women complaining about how "disgusting" the ladies' room was at the wholesale club, when our maintenance guy had JUST cleaned it before we opened for business, and we'd only been open for like half an hour.

Now, I'm a guy, and thus have a different perspective on "filthiness." I do occasionally find some spillage on the toilet seat from someone whose aim was a little indiscriminate. My solution is to grab a wad of TP, wipe it off, flush it down, and then go about doing my business.

As for the fact that hundreds of butts have used the seat before me... Life's too short to worry about contamination from ass germs.

I confess that there are some places where I squat. I also wipe up on the rare occasion that I make a mess doing so. I don't understand why it results in a mess though...

And yes, I am aware that squatting over a regular toilet doesn't have the same health benefits as using a squat toilet does. However, when the washroom isn't particularly clean, some things I'm just not up for.

As a very, very general observation over many years, I've found that toilets in the UK splash much more than toilets in the US.

(of all insights acquired by having lived on two continents, this is probably the most useless)

I should not have come in here while having lunch.

No kidding.

Unless you have open sores on your butt or thighs, there's no danger other than being squicked, in sitting on a public toilet seat.

And the handle to turn on the water is by far the nastiest part of a restroom, and most people don't think twice when they use their freshly-washed hands to twist turn the faucet off.

The son of a friend of mine had bought a house from some wealthy middle-easterners who'd had squat toilets installed in all their bathrooms, except for one in the basement.

Basically where you'd expect to see a toilet bowl there was a slightly raised platform with a hole in it, with a foot plate on either side of the hole, and a flush handle sticking out of the wall behind it. You put your feet on the plates, squatted down to do your business, and then flushed the hole in the floor... see, the people from that part of the world think our toilets are horribly unsanitary because everyone's ass touches the same seat; on these things, all that touches it is the bottom of your feet, which is unclean anyway. Oh, and down low on the wall where we'd expect to see a roll of toilet paper, there was a shower control with a hose, presumably to be used for purposes of personal hygiene in lieu of paper.

He said the previous owners proudly told him they'd gone to tremendous expense to import these things from Iran and have them installed, and he'd had to spend nearly as much to rip them out and install US-style toilets where they'd been.

The other weird thing about this bathroom was that there were showerheads sticking out of each wall and a drain in the middle of the floor. When you turned this control on one wall, the entire room turned into a gigantic shower stall. Never saw that anywhere else either.
