i HAVE that sign in my downstairs bathroom.. more for the guys though.CUparrot wrote:What I was going to say is similar to what BB said:
If you sprinkle when you tinkle,
please be neat and wipe the seat
My grandmother used to have this on a little cross-stiched thing hanging on the wall of her bathroom.
back in the dark ages when i was a wee one, my grandmother and mother taught me to NEVER SIT ON A PUBLIC TOILET SEAT!!!! i still don't. i squat. if i get some sprinkle on the seat, i wipe it up.
case closed.
those that leave the seats & stalls a mess are most likely the same people who...
a.) litter
b.) don't care about anything but themselves
c.) don't teach their kids any manners, respect for others or not to litter

See, no matter how bad we think it is, someone has it worse!
But maybe if they stand on the seat, their aim is better and they don't pee on the seat? Nah... can't see it... probably pee and dirt mixed on the seats!

You need to smear Vaseline on the seats to make them slippery. After they slip and fall in a few times they'll modify their practices.creeky wrote:We have a different issue in our Sydney office - there are signs for "no standing on the seats" ... you go to "sit" and there are feet marks all over the seats- a high asian presence - who are used to "squatting" ..

We have people at work that are that paranoid, that they use the paper towel that is there to dry your hands, to hold handles to open and close the doors .......
Like .. .do they use them when pushing a shopping card? that is supposed to be the worst place to pick up germs

Squirting baby oil would be more efficient and you wouldn't really have to touch the seat. Spray and go, baby.rednekkPH wrote:You need to smear Vaseline on the seats to make them slippery.

ok .. so when I was in Vietnam last feb, we were Ho Chi Minhs place ... and I need to "go" and asked the guide for a bathroom - and he directed me to one ...
I walked in - and my friend swears she has never seen me move so fast
I WAS OUT OF THERE!
It was just a huge room - with open places to "squat" ..... and all I saw was a woman squated .... her bum up in the air in front of me and everything to see
And it stank ...
I went back to the guide and says "WESTERN TOILET"
I have poor balance cause I am partially hearing impaired - can you imagine that
- no sqautting for this aussie!

Right after college while looking for a real job, I janitored for a Montgomery Wards corporate office. Seven floors a Mens and Womans washroom on each floor. Cleaned each three times in the morning and three times in the afternoon. The horror stories I could tell you of the Womans washrooms would sicken you (or maybe not, Jenny
) Every level, with the exception of the mail room level (entirely different story) the womans was sickening and the mens was usually a one minute touch up. AND THESE WERE CORPORATE EXECUTIVE TYPE B*TCH'S

I just figure - we all touch money ..... its gotta be germy ..... but - I think we build up a resistance .. so
I go to the bathroom - in a public place - if there is only one cubicle free, and I "gotta go or die" .... and it has dribble - I will clean it up and just sit - I am still alive

All I gots to add to this...thanks for the belly laughs!!!
Ok, I guess I do have something to add. For me, bathrooms used to be be a 'no eye contact' type of place. Now I catch myself looking at people as they come out of a stall to determine if I want to enter that stall.
And my vote is "YES" - we need a campaign to stop the sprinkles!
