    Sounds a bit OTT what jej does, but at the same time, I don't blame her!

    Verrucas are vile, and VERY hard to get rid of!!!

    Particularly off your bum!

    I don't have any type of relashionship with him, at best it's hi and bye.

    I'm not going to mention it to anyone at work not even HR. I don't think it's an HR issue. Forevermore I could be at fault for inviting him in for a hot drink instead of making him wait on the door step.

    How can you even think that it could be your fault? It is not. You were simply being friendly, although tbh I probably wouldn't have invited anyone in that I only say hi and bye to.

    At the very least, you have to confront him surely? It does sound like he's seriously creepy, or having a laugh at your expense. I guess you'll know for sure on Tuesday.

    Like someone else said I think you need a new workplace....with all these things that are happening. :(

    Like the OP, I'm struggling for an explanation.

    She says he's from overseas and I'm aware in some cultures, its necessary to wash hands thoroughly before eating and drinking.

    But I'm still struggling at a cultural clash where a person offered a cuppa strips naked and showers...
  • Maybe he thought the invitation for coffee was a prelude to something more intimate?
    I could dream to wide extremes, I could do or die: I could yawn and be withdrawn and watch the world go by.

    Now I'm having a twisted-mind interest in this. I wasn't aware you could get verrucas anywhere but toes or fingers! Sure that wasn't...genital warts? :o Only I'm not aware of a condition that would manifest as verrucas outside of fingers and toes.

    I've not read more than page 1 but there are a number of bowel diseases, crohns etc that cause extreme toilet needs but that people get on with c/we say gastroenteritis for 48 hours locked up at home . He may even have an ostomy and got into difficulty.

    I suggest OP leaves it, it's not really cost her anything much at all and given her a funny story. If she ends up getting closer to this guy she may find out in the future. But I wouldn't embarrass everyone involved by asking questions now xxx

    Am I the only one thinking he may be a bit of a pervert, and he may have wiped all his private bits on the OP's towel and toothbrush and all sorts as some pervy turn on? :eek:

    Or maybe he may have been doing things to himself in there whilst thinking of her???

    OMG, the mind runs wild! :eek:

    .

    Well he wouldn't have needed to shower to do any of those things, and it would have been a lot less obvious if he hadn't. He could have just gone in there, done his funky stuff and then revelled in the fact that Yvonne would never know.

    Do you think the same when any man uses your toilet/bathroom?

    Surely if you had some sort of medical issue then it would be a good explanation as to why you had to use the shower?

    I appreciate that most people would be embarrassed if they had soiled themselves but the bizarre part is that he didnt even mention having the shower - or thank her for using the facilities.

    Oh, and I would have thrown everything in the bin too!

    Don't worry, I'm making it up as I go along!:)

    I don't get the throwing the towel away - why?
