What happens to condoms when they're flushed?

I saw that one. I don’t know how much those guys make, but it isn’t enough.

One of the jobs he did was to help change out a big motor at a sewate treatment plant. They mentioned that they regularly have to take out a large ball of used condoms from the entry level of the sewage. Secondly, if you watch him walking up and down the halls, there’s a non-trivial amount of used condoms on the floors, the stairs, the hallway, etc.

Basically, once you flush them, some city employee has to haul them out of the water treatment plant and throw them away, or he just slogs through them as he goes about his job.

I’m trying to think of something more repulsive.

I’m coming up blank.
