Lynne's Rant for the Day: CHECK THE DAMN TOILET BEFORE YOU LEAVE!!!!!
I work in a professional environment and we all have to share the ladies bathroom on the floor. Please for all of you, when you leave the stall check the toilet and make sure everything has flushed. If it hasn't - give it another flush. If it's still not going please call service in to fix the damn toilet.

I'm ill now from what I saw

:puke:

1. Isn't that the damnedest truth? There is NOTHING worse than a FLOATER
to shock the crap (sorry) out of you when you swing open that stall door, EXPECTING a FRESH BOWL.

I do NOT want to see other's leavings in the bowl I'm about to use!!!! I want to PRETEND I'm the ONLY one who's used THAT toilet today, and it's MY illusion and I'm entitled to it.

FLUSH. TWICE if you have to.

6. You Could Get a Remote Flusher Like John Cage:
"Remnants disturb me. I prefer a fresh bowl."

13. I know exacly how you feel!
I worked in an office that shared the bathroom with a hair salon ran by a bunch of old ladies. You'd think they'd be wiser. Nope. They light up the joint. Shit on the side of the toilets. Clog things up. And never call maintenance. I nearly threw up on more than one occasion. Where do these people come from???

14. This is a big problem with me...
at home right now with a roommate.

She leaves the nastiest stuff in the toilet bowl -- including giant smears that she NEVER bothers to brush. She's always flooding the toilet and says it's because of (and I kid you now) unusually large bowel movements.

But the grosses thing she does is leaves blood all over the toilet seat and bowl (she has problems with her period.) Again, she just won't take the time to CLEAN IT UP.

Another big issue for me is having a guy in the house, and the little (!) pee dribbles down the outside of the bowl. My last roommate was a guy and I got sick to death of cleaning the old pee off the toilet.

16. I have actually taken the toilet-bowl brush
in hand, and walked up to whomever in my house was last in the bathroom and requested they make appropriate use of it, as they seemed to have left bio-hazard material all over the toilet. It's not as if it's difficult to FLUSH. If necessary, take the brush and give the bowl a quick scrub. I even put some of those quickie bleach wipes on the counter so people can wipe up their damn "dribbles." Does anyone do it? Yeah. I do. :mad:

Leaving your bodily waste for others to deal with is very low-rent.
