People who use the restroom on the same floor they work on

People who go to a different floor to do their business

Since yesterday was the most poorly viewed post since the first day of TATTOPITW, I clearly have to raise the bar today.

Do you go to a different floor in your office to take a crap?

People in America (and I’m sure some other places) like to pretend that they don’t poop. Especially women. Now, personally, I know that some women don’t deuce, particularly exceptionally good looking women: it just doesn’t add up and really tarnishes the whole image. But dudes? Come on.

I’m not really going to be able to take a side here because I can see both sides of the issue. There are some people that I work with who I really wish would go to a different building. And then there are other people who hit the stairs, carrying a newspaper, returning a few minutes later. Why you would be so obvious as to bring a newspaper, I can’t understand, especially given that you might only get to read one or two columns – is Dear Abby or yesterday’s sports really worth the embarrassment? Are you really that afraid of being bored in the stall?

Maybe the happy medium here would be a situational awareness about floor selection for when you know something’s cookin’. Don’t lie: you know when it’s going to be a particularly hazardous situation. On these days, maybe that’s the time to take it upstairs, choosing a floor that both spares your beloved co-workers and perhaps brings the pain to a floor of the building you’re not so fond of. On your less Mexican or whisky-fueled days, you can keep it on the same floor and be efficient about it. I can live with that.

    why you are here...

    You are here because you are awesome and you celebrate awesomeness.

    You are here to read a new post every weekday.

    You are here because there are two types of people in the world: people who are here, and people who suck.
