On Monday, I went into the ladies room and found an un-flushed toilet not once, but twice. Happened again today.

Seriously, how hard it that to do?

I have thought about posting signs in the stalls, but am afraid I won't be able to state it politely!

tube, not bottle, always squeeze from the bottom, MsGilmore squeeze from middle, hence, we have separate toothpaste tubes

We did end up posting signs on the INSIDE of the stalls at my former office. They said something about being considerate to the others who have to use the facility and make sure the EVERYTHING goes down when you flush...if not, please flush again. Thank you, Mgmt.....

Please feel free to quote if you must! LOL! grin

this has been reported about a number of women here, refusing to flush...followed shortly by hushed whispers of "and she doesn't wash her hands either." While I have no solution for washing hands, you can easily install "auto-flushers" to resolve that issue

In one of my first weeks here, during an all bank staff meeting, we had a power point presentation on how what position to leave a toilet seat when exiting a restroom.

We don't men/women signs, I guess you would say they are unisex.

Hoosierland, try this:

"The water in these bowls may be used to make coffee at any time. Please be sure to flush for freshest results."

when I worked at FRB, our maintenance staff installed springs on all toilet seats, they stayed up unless you were sitting on them. Some funny guys went to all the bathrooms and put signs on the wall "caution - ejector seats." Although a thorough investigation was made (after all, it was done in men's and women's on all 5 floors), the guilty person(s) were never apprehended!

I do have one sister in law who is a bit on the OCD side, and every time we go to her house I swap the rolls around, just cause I know it drives her crazy. Maybe I'll start doing that at work too.


I await proper poll training. smile smile smile Now, were you the token vote for using your hand instead of paper? Just need to know in case I'm shaking hands one day...

Dare I ask what a "pickle bag" is? I have six daughters, so I think I can guess, but I'm still not sure I am not reading too much into the term...

.....and please, should any number of your bodily fluids end up in or around the toilet area, clean them up..........

........how did that humongous pile of soaking wet toilet paper get on the ground?.......

......yes, using the small trash can in the corner would be preferable to placing that on the floor..........

.....was someone murdered in here? Lose a limb or slice a jugular??......

UGH!

We have a restroom shared by men and women and twice recently I have found feminine hygiene wrappers on the counter. Come on, ladies, I don't need to see that!

The other side contends that this is no different than eating someone's lunch from the refrigerator...

If this is true, that is some nasty lunch in the refrigerator.

And please, people, no more posts about the things you keep baby wipes in your desk for! Egad!

<<<<-----Is getting out the bleach wipes from her drawer and wiping down everything after this conversation!! sick

Happy, how about passing around a petition for the employees to sign requesting a change in the TP? That is, if you feel adversly about it. Now that I think about it I don't remember you having a complaint about the product, just the fiasco that resulted.
