Work issue

That\'s good. I too like my job.

Since the new year I have called two staff meetings. One was about people flushing the toilet. I don\'t know who called the \"Rate my turd\" contest or whatever they were doing but I asked if people could flush a toilet when finished. This was men and ladies doing it. I only have a staff of four so it\'s easy to be able to tell when someone has left \"live ordinance\" in the crapper.

The second staff meeting was to get people to put used toilet paper in the toilet and flush it, rather then putting poopy toilet paper in the garbage can. Smells great after a day with the store closed.

My staff are all grown up. From age 32 to age 51. Each of them has committed at least once these crimes against humanity. Hooray for working.

Just curious to know what you did for them Scott. I work for a \'major telephone company\' myself.

Aye, British Telecom as a graphic designer.

A bigger set of shit-kickers I\'ve yet to find! Staff are an expendable commodity that they can treat however they like it would seem.

Even more worryingly, they appear to treat their customers in a similar fashion! :duh:

I would urge everybody in the UK to use ANY OTHER telecommunications provider they can find. BT are a joke.

Unfortunately the other providers are as bad or worse.
My employer (a council) transferred from BT and the new provider switched off LAN feeds and telephone lines to outlying sites without warning or notification. Cost revenue producing areas a lot of cash, in one case over £2000 a day.

Ewwww! :|~

The ladies loos on the first floor of my office now have signs on the doors telling people to clean the loos after use because it\'s not fair on everyone else or the poor cleaners (who are a nice bunch). I accidentally went into the one that I think caused the signs to be put up, and it looked like someone had exploded - it was truly foul. Unfortunately, we have rather more than 4 employees so there\'s no chance of pointing fingers. I just can\'t believe that grown adults lack the common sense and courtesy to clean up after themselves if they make a mess.

I get the impression (from Amazon Warrior\'s post and general talk with mates) that women have far less hygiene in the toilet dept than men. The amount of times I\'ve been told by women that their toilets are a big stinking mess and that there\'s crap all over the place beggars belief. Us men are quite tame in comparison :eek:

Maybe. I\'m not going to deny it! I\'ve had very little experience with mens\' loos, except for a (very brief) cleaning job at a hotel. It just boggles the mind that anyone, having made a mess like that, would just wander off and leave it for the next poor sod. I don\'t behave like that at home (my Mum\'s very hot on hygiene and trained us well!) and I certainly would never do it in a public facility!

Sadly that is true.
In a prior incarnation I looked after buildings and one of the TRUE stories I could tell you about a Ladies Loo, is not fit for a public forum visited by kids. (Even adults would be sickened) :eek::|~

This is something that is practiced a lot in Mexico, since they do not have the proper plumbing system, toilet paper must be put in a garbage can rather than flushed. You can always tell which restaurants here in the southwest have hired illegal immigrants, because those places often have a garbage can in each of the bathroom stalls filled with soiled wads of tissue! :|~ Or even worse, simply a pile of them on the ground in the corner!!!

actually that reminds me of a time when i was in halls in swansea. went to go for a shower, so was just wearing a towel, decided to drop the kids off first, felt something squidgy between my toes...yup someone had somehow left a nugget on the floor :|~

this is a residence next to the hospital so the only people who did it were either doctors or nurses! ffs also the shower head wasn\'t detachable so i spent the next 20mins scrubbing my feet while lying on my back :flame:

Aye, I\'m now consumed by a morbid sense of curiousity. And I want to see if I can better it with my Japan loo description!
Ok on both your heads be it, next meet up. Just make sure we have a Barf bag (or two) handy.

That made me laugh so hard, I almost left a nugget in my kegs! lol

We once had a woman \'explode\' in the ladies at the Mexican restaurant I worked at. Thankfully I was gainfully employed in the kitchen and had an excuse not to assist in the cleanup operations.

It was like someone had set off a brown paint bomb... :eek:
