Bathroom Etiquette

[FawkesFyre]

I am SO glad to not be customer-facing

[Al the DLOE]

well all the gun magazines and hw reading is done in my "private office" with a stool for hands free reading....fawkes HATES it...usually leave the stool with magazine afte i am done since if i finish before i am done reading i want to just start back where i left off where i was.

I'm probably one of the few girls to admit that that is where i tend to read too.

I read my Cosmo's there, or my bf's Maxim's.

It's a habit i picked up from my dad when I was little =\

You know...all this potty talk is interesting. I must comment on two things i've heard (since most things people have already covered that im in agreeance with):

1: you shoudln't be on your phone on the bowl or at the urinal. While i see that it may be your prime place for complain calling, no one wants to hear you talk about your crap WHILE you crap. In fact, talking shouldn't be allowed...the reason why i find it uncomfortable is mainly because...well...I have my d**k in my hands, and well, I don't like talking to you while my d**k is in my hands. Its just a thing of mine. And i'm sure others find that similar.

Now, not to say that I haven't said my hellos in the bathroom...this is usually done at the sink though, while im washing my hands. And the extend of the hello is "Hi." or "Whats up?" That's that.

2. Now, I know that a lot of people enjoy their bathroom reading...using ye ole' "Throne" to do thine "scholarship," but recently visiting the doctor, he told me that its not actually a good thing to do. He said that doing so for prolonged periods in bouts of reading can cause stretching, pressure, and therefore, hemmroids. Thats right...Hemmroids. A wonderful thing, a bulging, swolen vein in your anus that hurts like a bastard and bleeds.

But anywho...thats that.

Also: I know i saw someone mentioned this - the woman's bathroom seems to be more ill-treated than the men's bathroom, not just with defecation or urination, but also with other things like smoking or the like. While a girls bathroom may not have as much graffiiti as a mens bathroom (in fact, the stalls were changed in the bathroom at work due to the amount of stuff written on teh walls) but smoke alarms tend to be set off more in women's bathrooms. This has happened at work a numerous amount of times, as well as at school.

I have more on my own versions of bathroom etiquitte, but I'll save that for when i get riled up

Sometimes when I'm reading I'm not even doing anything except reading... I dont know, I'm bizarre like that =\

Maybe its my way of hiding for a few minutes to have some "me" time =P
