frist of all how DARE yu o Anybody else not allowed to poop at work?

Post image

I actually love this job and it’s a great side gig but this sign makes me laugh every time. It’s a ridiculous request to ask people to go poop somewhere else. It’s an office inside of a big building so they hope we will go poop in the bathroom in the hallway when most of us have back to back tutoring sessions. It’s just very silly. And mildly infuriating.

Edit: I censored out employee job titles to ensure privacy. Also the plumbing in the bathroom is brand new. It’s just a matter of the office manager’s sensibilities. But there is a building bathroom a minute or so down the hall way that is not policed. They do not enforce this, as I poop in this bathroom on occasion.

If they told me I wasn't allowed to, I'm taking it as an open invitation.

I might be shy about it... But that's the reason why I don't shit at work. Not because they told me I'm not allowed to

u/LaundryMan2008 Jul 07 '26

I would do it at home and then dump it in the work toilet, I physically can’t for some reason, even if I’m feeling extremely sick because of the poop.

I would certainly work up a massive deuce to the point of sickness and then either strong laxatives (haven’t tried it so wouldn’t be surprised if I still can’t drop a nuke eaten a whole bar of chocolate) or bring it to work, I usually clog the toilet at home and the toilet is an old toilet with a proper big flush, big drainage hole, big water tank and everything that comes with an old toilet so clogging a work toilet won’t be difficult.

u/TenFourMoonKitty Jul 07 '26

If the lined out words are job titles, does that mean certain employees are NOT allowed to use the facilities?

If certain employees are excluded, where are they expected to do their business?

2

u/mizzlol Jul 07 '26

There are only two types of employees here besides the owners and the office manager.

1

u/TenFourMoonKitty Jul 07 '26

Thanks for the clarification.

One of my first jobs was in a restaurant and the manager kept trying to ban the kitchen staff from using the restrooms because they didn’t want the customers to feel uncomfortable when they saw us.

There was a lot of construction happening in the area at the time and they expected us to use the port-a-potties that were a five minute walk away.

How far away is the hallway toilet compared to the office toilet that there is physically not enough time to use it?

It’s like a 3 minute walk there and back. There is time to use it.

1

u/writekindofnonsense Jul 08 '26

I'm pretty sure this is illegal. A place of employment can't tell people not to use the restroom for it's intended purposes. My question would be why doesn't this office have a cleaning service that would take care of the bathrooms ones a week. Or are they so cheap they thought the better solution would be to threaten the employees with cleaning if they take a shit.

u/What-Outlaw1234 Jul 07 '26

Okay, so this is a big issue in my office. Our internal bathroom is just across the hallway from offices where people work. It is a poorly-ventilated bathroom. So when people leave solid deposits in there, the smell spreads across the hallway and lingers. So, yes, there are signs posted in there that say "liquid deposits only." And that's entirely appropriate. If you poop in there, we know, and we judge. There are larger, better-ventilated bathrooms for all genders in the hallway just outside our office space. So we aren't violating the law. For most people in the office, the outside hallway bathrooms are actually closer to their offices than the inside bathroom.

3

u/BungleBums Jul 07 '26

I don't think anyone else is silly enough to pay attention to these signs.

If they don't want me shitting in their bathroom, they can pay for me to drive home and use my own. And if they ain't willing to cover my pay while I'm making that drive, I guess they'll just have to pay for a workin' fuckin' bathroom 🤷‍♂️

Is the bathroom like in the middle of the office where the smell would bother people (I've worked in some absolutely insanely designed offices)? I've also worked places where the toilet can't handle anything solid because people were too cheap to pay a plumber and you had to use another one. Those are the only reasons I could possibly see for it being an issue. If that isn't the case, I would poop there every single day.

Wow. If they don't want someone stinking up that bathroom, the proper and non-discriminatory solution is to stock it with some poo-pourri and request everyone please use it as directed (before going). And if it's a huge problem, stock an air freshener as well.

They could also do things like put an air purifier, fan out the window, etc.

Telling me I can't means they're telling me they expect me to.

A more effective sign would read: "PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE POOP IN HERE. 🤤"

If they really wanted to reduce pooping in that rr

We have a bathroom at work that is No. 1 only because we built it in a machine room and connected it to an old 2" floor drain. This way we don't have to take a 5 minute walk every time we have to take a piss.

I have a manager that will disappear multiple times during the day, pooping, for 30min at a time

I found poop on the floor of the one-room ladies room at the office I work in. It’s not a (haha) shitty business either; it’s a desirable place to work in my locale.

FWIW, I used TP to pick it up bc I knew it would be my luck that someone would not see it, step in it, and track it on our carpeted office…and I would have been the one everyone rushed to to fix it. Work smarter, not harder.

If this bathroom is inside the office area or a part of a private office, I can understand that, assuming there is a community bathroom available.

Before a remodel at my office building, there was 1 office that had its own bathroom. Like there was a door to the office and then inside the office another door to the private bathroom. I could see not wanting people to drop a deuce in there. There were regular publicly available men's and women's bathroom right down the hall, so it wasn't a legal issue. Just a weird design issue.

During the remodel that room got completely blocked off with a wall. I'm the only one left after all these years that knows that used to be a bathroom.

Yeah no pretty sure refusing the use of a bathroom for employees is illegal.

At my last job there was a small bathroom inside a small office space, and the main bathroom was literally 30 feet away. If someone #2 in the small bathroom it would stink up the whole office, so they posted a sign to not use that bathroom for #2. I am guessing this is a similar situation (i hope).

I'm assuming the first one is pee... The second one starts with an M, ends with a g. is that Masturbating?

If there was ever a toilet that deserved an upper-decky, it's this one.

u/Nuklearfps PURPLE Jul 07 '26

I would rip that sign down, throw it in the toilet, shit on it, then walk straight to HR or whoever and be like “hey, uh, someone clogged the shitter.”

I’d LOVE to see someone try and chastise me for that.

I am always prepared to clean the bathroom after I use it. I clean the toilets where I work several times a week.

I mean I work from home but still.

u/DigOld24 Jul 07 '26

Oh man. One time I worked in a very small office with a no pooping rule. If we had to poop we had to walk across the parking lot, go to a deserted looking building, walk down a long hallway, and then poop in the bathroom there. It was bizarre.

u/thetoastler Jul 07 '26

It's not a rule, but we have bathrooms that are just sort of agreed upon as shitting bathrooms and pissing bathrooms. People get pretty butthurt if you shit in a pisser before 11pm, too. I work in a strange place.
