    Most high street shops don't have toilets for customers, other than supermarkets. .

    My question wasn't genuine - I do have a life in the real world and actually go shopping too sometimes!

    Oh right, I was just treating your response respectfully. :) I will just assume you are not being genuine in the future. :)

    The problem is in some areas there are no public toilets left at all and so spending time job searching means you are in need of a toilet. As they are a public building they have more responsibility to provide a toilet than a shop but then like someone else mentions if they are not safe to be cleaned it is a problem.

    I'm lost here.
    You give brilliant advice but then make strange comments.
    If you have an issue with me as an individual please pm me as I can no longer see your posts.

    Hi, this is my first post so go easy. Thanks to the whole credit crunch disaster I've got to experience the wonderful world of jobseekers allowance. Anyway I had to go for my 13 week interview, and was running late thanks to our countries wonderful integerated transport system (the bus broke down). I got there, but didn't get a chance to visit any facilities before hand, so I asked were the loos were. They don't have any; this might not seem like a big deal, but it kind of sums alot of the problems with the system. We are now customers, and they are facilitating our journey back to employment or some other such mangement consultant non-sense. Yet they can't be bothered to install basic facilities in a place people have to wait an indeterminate amount of time or lose money they our relying on. Put it another way, can you imagine a doctors waiting room without a toilet?
    Even posh shops don't have toilets ... and their customers are there to hand money over to them, not the other way round.

    Doctors' waiting rooms need toilets because people are asked to provide samples they didn't expect to ... there are pregnant people with a weight on their bladder ... and, surprisingly, actual sick people who might want to throw up.
