Office Loo's...

I'm another one that tries my hardest to wait until I'm at home. Even to the point where I'm in pain.
I know it sounds really, really daft but I just feel uncomfortable doing a number 2 in a public toilet.
However, I have no problem at all with other people doing a number 2 in public. We all have bodily functions and that is what the toilet is there for. It's not disgusting at all. In fact I'd go as far as saying that it's disgusting behaviour to lambast someone for going to the toilet.0 -

This is kind of what worries me in my workplace. There are a bunch of men sat just outside the toilets. I'm in and out as quick as I can be.
I know that my Husband and one of his work colleagues would joke about women doing number two's if they'd been in the toilet too long. Some boys never grow up

I have to be absolutely desperate to do a poo at work. Or while I'm at the shops, other peoples houses etc. My kids are the same.
I just found out the other night that my hubby thought we did this because we didn't like the cleanliness of other loos. You must be joking! I love going for a pee in other bathrooms because our bathroom at home is just awful. But the thought of someone knowing it was me who made that pong is just too humiliating.
If I do have to go at work, I choose a toilet that is far away from my office block and preferably in a block of loos to reduce the risk of someone waiting to go in after me. Horror of horrors :eek:
By far away from my office, I don't mean someone else's place of work! Where I work there are lots of office blocks scattered across the site.0 -
If I need to go, I go. Don't see the problem personally. It is what they are there for.
If the problem is that you are so stinky then maybe you need to look at your diet!

I put lots of toilet roll in first so no splash can be heard!
I was once trying to do a quiet no. 2, as someone else had gone into another cubicle. The next thing I can hear a bottom exploding. It was SO hard not to laugh!Should've = Should HAVE (not 'of')
Would've = Would HAVE (not 'of')
No, I am not perfect, but yes I do judge people on their use of basic English language. If you didn't know the above, then learn it! (If English is your second language, then you are forgiven!)0 -
I would rather go at home but if I need to go at work I do. Unfortunately our work loos are 4 cubicles in one room so I tend to use the disabled loo where I can be on my own.Thrifty Till 50 Then Spend Till the End
You can please some of the people some of the time, all of the people some of the time, some of the people all of the time but you can never please all of the people all of the time0 -
Definitely a case of if you gotta go, you gotta go! Work or not, I'm not going to hold it in.0

Mental Minnie why would the women care what the blokes did in the blokes toilets its not like they need to go in there?0

I would only ever if desperate and I would sit until the toilets were empty, and have sometimes ended in a poo off situation two of us in loos waiting for the other to leave before doing the deed.
A friend of mine once came back from the loo in some distress it turned out she had been chatting with a collegue walking to the loos and the conversation continued into the loos where the other lady proceeded to do a very loud and obvious poo whilst continuing the conversation with my friend she was horrified, as was I!I don't get nearly enough credit for not being a violent psychopath.0 -

Competition as to who could be the smelliest.
The ladies on the other hand did the needful outside working hours.
My ex always said why would he sit on the loo on his own time when he could get paid for it?
I didn't used to when I worked in an office, but now I work shifts at a hospital so sometimes needs must! Also, when a lot of your day revolves around other people's number twos its pretty daft to be silly about your own and your colleague's!0
