    Probably explains why he is your ex. What an immature attitude.

    Ha ha! That is how a man's mind works. I used to wait until overtime.

    That way I got paid time and a half.

    Why wouldn't you go at work- you get paid :D
    You can calculate how much you're earning for using the office facilities here. I get paid about £100 to wee at work so could up this considerably if I put some effort in.

    (I'm a woman and go when I need to. The men often have a good laugh about whoever's gone off for a stinky; luckily they don't keep track of the women nipping off upstairs!)

    It's attitudes like this that has made some employers make employees clock out in order to use the toilet. Can't say I blame them when some people take the p i s s (don't excuse the pun).

    We were supposed to when I worked at McDonald's 10 years ago. I never did. They weren't the best at recognising that their staff were humans though.

    As a student I did some temp work in an office. The loos were locked for some bizarre reason. When you needed to go you had to walk through the office with a set of keys. One set for the ladies with a red key ring and one for the guys with a blue key ring.
    The best day of your life is the one on which you decide your life is your own, no apologies or excuses. No one to lean on, rely on or blame. The gift is yours - it is an amazing journey - and you alone are responsible for the quality of it. This is the day your life really begins.

    If at all possible I will do everything in my power to avoid using the loo at work for a no.2, and if I absolutely must I NEVER sit on the seat. The only loo I will sit on is at home.

    I also flush with my foot.


    Probably quite OCDish but I just hate the thought of sitting on a loo where loads of people have had a poo/wee, freaks me out.

    You do realise that's completely mental, right?

    Millions of people sit on toilet seats and flush toilets with their hands multiple times every single day and come to no harm at all. When was the last time you heard of anyone contracting a virulent flesh eating bug by sitting on a toilet seat?
