Ok :lol: :lol:

So after reading White Line fevers post in another topic.

Had me thinking about Toilet Etiquette.
EG: at my work in the Mens room there is 2 cubicles. I have always thought it polite that if i went to toilet and someone was already in the cubicle that I wouldnt go do my business in either cubicle till later.
Few of the other lads I work with agree and follow by the same code but there are people that have no such thought obviously.

I cant think of anything worse then when dropping the kids to school having someone else come in to drop there guts and spray the porcelin and me having to listen to it.

What do you guys think?

You obviously have never been privvy to the big construction site toilet, 8 cubicles in a row at approx 10am each morning.

It's like some grabbed 50 pool table balls and threw them into the air and they landed in water.

Plonk-plonk-plonk-plonk-plonk

But one rule i do like to enforce:

No grunting while sealing the deal.

I work in a small office and there is me and 5 ladies (sometimes up to 7). The staff ammenity is opposite one desk and next to another.

I REFUSE to use that one for no. 2's. I go into our training area and use the client toilet. That way i can be as loud as i like without the ramifications.

only issue is sometimes a couple of them head outside for a cigarette and their heads are right next to the window and i can hear their conversations clearly so I just relax for a couple of minutes...

Is it just me or is an FU Iced Coffee in the morning the best thing to get the bowell dancing?

If I had to wait until the cubicles were free until I used them I'd be waiting all day...
I don't think there is cubicle ettiquette as it is private enough but for sure, urinal ettiquette (i.e. do not start a conversation) apply.

2. what do you do if the guys in the cubicle next to yours is on his mobile and you're done and ready to flush?

If I'm on the bog, I really don't like it if someone else comes in and starts taking a dump, because I got there first so they should just sod off. However, my view stems from a very traumatic episode in which some giant mastodon of a woman came in, slammed the door, took the biggest crap you could ever imagine - complete with labour pains, by the sound of it - didn't even wipe her arse, got up, slammed the door open again and stomped out. :shock: :((

Those of us who gone camping occasionally and had to find a suitable bush or rock, or have stayed places where what passes for a loo is made of thatch or corrugated iron, learn to get over these issues.
We all do it. It is natural. And there is no need to pretend we don't.
In city facilities I don't make unnecessary noises, out of consideration for the "sensitive", but I'm not affected by what happens in the next cubicle.

On my trip to Kruger last year we did have to cope with what was where the vehicles could stop.
We generally agreed ladies to the left of the rocks, gentlemen to the right, and forget your inhibitions if a pride of lions or pack of Hyena or Baboons came along at the critical moment.

Our toilet at work is right by the main counter... Stupid idea, because some of the guys can be loud, and odorous... :ymsick:

But if you need a tommy tit, then you have to have one, don't ya?

In the case of two cubicles: If you can hang on, definitely wait till later.

If there's a few cubicles, and the rest are vacant, it's damn creepy when someone starts using the one next to you.

So what you blokes are essentially saying is that you're quite happy to openly stand next to each other at a urinal, penis in hand. But put you in an enclosed space to have a dump and you get all shy and embarassed. Geeez get over it princess...you ain't that special...going to the toilet is something everyone does and if it causes you to make sound effects while doing it then you really need to consider changing your diet.

When I was at the Airport working, I was having a dump, and still had my radio on. I here "Loco to Cargo", (loco = Qantas Load Control)...I didn't answer.

"Loco to Cargo....you there Dirko....we know where you are"

"Yeah I'm here"

"Where are you Dirko?"

"Umm I'm having a shit"

This followed over the radio, various forms of laughter from the Qantas Check In counter, Loco, the Porters etc etc.

I followed up by playing the flushing back to them :lol:

Oooh, check out this link - a parody of Heart's 'Barracuda' - 'Blarin' Tuba'!! :lol: http://www.amiright.com/parody/70s/heart13.shtml

See, that's the worst thing about someone else being in the toilet, if they start making tuba noises I will laugh. I can't help it. And my laugh sounds like a witch's cackle so you've got this poor person sitting there trying to take a crap while someone else is cackling hysterically and increasingly louder at them.

Still, it doesn't top Angus' effort when we were in the public toilets once - I'd taken him to the ladies' because he was only three and not yet going to the loo on his own. One cubicle was already occupied and Angus said, really loudly, 'Mummy, is that lady doing a wee or is she doing a poo?' I muttered that I didn't know. 'I think she's doing a POO!' Angus declared, whereupon I started cackling and we had to run for it. :oops:
