322963 2005-02-09 08:55:00 You expect this at school, or perhaps in a public toilet.

But not in a corporate workplace.

There's one disgusting chap at my workplace who insists on proudly displaying his daily deposits for all to admire. No idea who the offending chap is but it's been going on for a while so it's more than likely a permanent employee.

If I'm in a public place, like an airport, and find myself caught short, I'll often turn my nose up at the first cubicle I go in because more often than not, it's been 'tagged' by a 'toilet terrorist'.

My question is why do people do this? Have they not been brought up from birth with toilet etiquette? Or do they get some perverted kick out of it.

Well if that's the reason, then I really hope we don't get water restrictions after long periods without rain like we did a couple of years ago.

Then the threat of brownouts will have an alternative meaning to it.

322967 2005-02-09 10:00:00 Had a similar issue at my workplace with an almost exclusively male staff.

An e-mail to the entire office worked wonders. Something along the lines of "no one wants to see your biowaste CV, or tread in your urine on the floor - either clean up after yourself, or arrange for your collective mothers to come and do it for you"

No problems since.

Good idea. Or maybe a polite note on the door.

Is it just men that have this habit?

Perhaps certain people are genetically programmed to do this. Maybe it's some sort of survival instinct.

You have to be a male to understand the subtle nuances behind the topic. :rolleyes:

Cheers
