I almost fell into the toilet at work this morning

Why in the world do the cleaning people leave the toilet seats up after they clean the restrooms? Don’t they know that women sit down when they use the toilet?

Every morning I have to check the seat and put it down. Today I forgot and almost fell in.:eek:

WOMEN WANT THE SEAT DOWN!!!

I’m sorry to hear about the loss of your arms. :frowning:

So put the seat down. Anyone who sits without looking deserves a wet fanny. You know, men frequently sit on toilets, and I don’t hear about nearly as many guys who fall in without looking. What is up with you girls?

Help, I’ve fallen and I can’t get out!

I am a cleaner for a living and we are told to leave them up so upon facial inspection the mngt. can see you were not trying to hide an unclean rim, etc.

The only time I can see it happening is when you go at 4 in the morning and your SO has left the seat up, and you’re only half awake anyway. Then I see fit to complain.

At work, I am shocked that someone would not always look at the seat before you planted your butt on there. People are not always clean!

I will say, upon reading lawbuff’s post an image such as this came to mind…

Couldn’t they just look at it?

Ha, that’s a good one!

All I know is what many cleaners are told to do. Sure they could look in, lift up the lid, but they don’t want to dirty thier Royal hands, ha!

He is lightly riffing on you because you said facial inspection rather than visual inspection…brings to mind someone rubbing their face all over the toilet!

Oh, I get it, the image worked both ways though, not cleaning up the reverse perastalsis.

If you just sit down without looking, I assume that also means you don’t use the sanitary tissues on the seat. Gross.

A bazillion years ago when I was in the Navy, specifically in boot camp, one of their silly rules was that the seats were to be up *always *when not in use. I don’t know if it served a purpose or if it was just one of those things you had to do to learn to do what you were told…

Anyway, it was months before I could make myself *NOT *leave the seat up when I finished. But because of that brief interlude in my life, I always check the seat. Well, that, and protection against hoverers who don’t clean up after themselves…

We’ve done this topic before, haven’t we … ?

Semiannually.

Unless you open the entry door/exit door/stall door while holding a sanitary tissue, and turn on the faucet/flush while holding a sanitary tissue, you’re grosser.

There’s a couple bitches here at my office who shit all over the paper ass-gasket, then don’t flush it. Those things cost more lives than they save.

I had brothers. I haven’t fallen into a toilet since I was 6. :slight_smile: Seriously, do you just go in with your eyes closed, turn around and sit?

BTW, if you need a facial inspection after cleaning the toilet you’re brushing too hard.

It is a little know fact that women sitting down bare-assed without looking is actually a holdover from the dawn of our species when such behavior ensured the propagation and survival of our species.

The Navy is still a predominantly male institution, right? And men use the toilet with the seat up significantly more often than with the seat down. If the Navy is going to have any standard position for the toilet seat at all, then, it makes sense for it to be up.

Ever notice how, if a woman doesn’t notice the seat’s up and sits on the bare porcelain, it’s the man’s fault, and if a man doesn’t notice the seat’s down and splashes on the seat, it’s also the man’s fault? Methinks there’s a double standard, here. I’d prefer to hold everyone responsible for making sure the seat is in the appropriate position before using it.
