Can you at least tell someone? (Grossness)

Maybe they deliberately go to the store when they have gastric issues because they don't want to mess up their own bathrooms?

[BrenDAnn]

Ugh and I thought the men's toilet at the c-store was bad tonight! Seriously, though, how does one splatter poo on the underside of the seat, the rim of the toilet, AND the underside of the toilet lid? Yes, it was lovely to clean that--Thank goodness for gloves & bathroom cleaner!

Anyone else notice that skinny jeans are in again? That's how you get poop sprayed all over the walls. Seriously. My cousin came over to visit, and her pants were SO TIGHT that it was causing her some distress. (This was many years ago). Unfortunately for her, they were button fly, and she couldn't get them unbuttoned fast enough. Let's just say that as the pressure on her tummy was released, and she ripped down her pants as fast as possible, her body decided enough was enough.

I didn't know that poop could go that high. To her credit, she came out and sheepishly told my mother that she'd *had an accident* and asked where the cleaning supplies were.

Also, dated a janitor who has seen the correlation between tight pants and shitspray, and my little brother works at a gas station and has mentioned that since really tight pants have come back in style, he's had more bizarre messes in the ladies' room, and thinks we are right.

Think I've told this story before, ah well, I will still maintain that tight pants = new heights of poopery.

No, it's simple. Since I'm a janitor for Wal-Mart, I have to put up with this every working day. It's enough to make you want to scream "You can go straight to K-Mart!"

Bathrooms are always popular at Wal-Mart. But when you go to close them for the 30 minutes it takes to clean them, every single good for nothing shopper in the store suddenly decides that is when they need to go to the bathroom. And no, they won't be turned to the other ones in the back. I've had people lie with "That one's being cleaned, too" when I'm the only janitor on site from 8 am to 1 pm.

I've had people try the pregnancy card, the illness card, the direct intruder, the go to the CSM because I refuse to acknowledge their presence after they bother me and intentionally clean something right in front of them, and even people who deliberately spill something so I'll have to get out of the bathroom to go clean it up.

Getting literal crap on the walls happens nearly every day at Wal-Mart. The worst is people who walk in their own waste, and then spread it through the store. Idahoans are disgusting.

It's enough to make one declare "No public restrooms. Employees only."

A British woman who used to work at Wal-Mart told me, "That's your problem. You tell an American 'no,' it's like you've said the most profane word in existance to them. Tell an American 'no', and they'll decide it's their God-given right to have their way. People in the States think they're so entitled."

I hope that's a one time deal. We get that at least once a week in our lady's room; with the men they usually just draw pictures with their poop on the stall wall.

It's always little old ladies too, and they come-out in a different outfit! I wonder, do they KNOW they're going to explode and come prepared?

BTW, Poop-scented ninja shall now be my signature!

My old store was known to let someone go home early with pay for volunteering to clean a particularly nasty mess. (I preferred to work the last hour; and as head cashier, I couldn't really leave early anyway, especially at night when most of the worst messes happen.) Our biggest issue was people stuffing paper towels in the urinals and causing floods (at least that was just water). We had to stop putting paper towels in the men's room at all.

Tell me about it. I refuse to go into the one in the front of this store near me. It's like the Black Hole of Calcutta.

Before the pharmacy got remodeled and had it's own bathroom, I made the mistake the first time of using the bathroom in the front of the store. Started to walk into one stall, looked at the floor, and walked right out. There was poo on the floor.

We all would walk to the one way in the back of the store. That one is always just fine.

If you have an incontinent baby or toddler, you bring a second outfit. I suppose it makes sense to do the same if you have (or are) an incontinent elder.
