Bathroom Instructions Gallery. . . . for the mentally and hygienically challenged

So, I was really just wondering if corporate restrooms for men typically house a gallery of snippy notes on how to properly behave while in the restroom?  I will admit that women can be a bit more snippy at times (and trust me, that is not always the case because I know some snippy men) but apparently other women's poor behavior in the loo is not something that can go unchecked in the corporate world.  I was just wondering if the same was the case in the men's restroom.  Do y'all have notes scattered around that say "PLEASE DON'T PEE ON THE FLOOR.  THAT'S NOT FAIR TO THE REST OF US MEN"  or perhaps "DON'T MAKE DIRECT EYE CONTACT WITH OTHER MEN WHILE STANDING AT THE URINAL.  THAT'S JUST NOT POLITE" or maybe even "PLEASE TAKE YOUR NEWSPAPER WITH YOU WHEN EXITING THE STALL.  OTHER MEN DO NOT WANT TO TOUCH A PAPER YOU READ WHILST TAKING A SHIT."  No?  This doesn't happen in men's restrooms?  Well it sure as hell happens in women's restrooms.  And I can't even complain too much because I will admit that when I see something nasty in the restroom I too want to write a note - - - - - and I may or may not have composed one of the notes below, but mine was neither snippy nor condescending - it was just matter of fact.  And quite frankly - it needed to be said.  Please enjoy the gallery of notes that adorn the corporate women's restroom where I currently work.  And YES these are all in the same room.



I'm not sure if a woman has ever "lifted the seat" to pee.  There are nasty
things under that seat.  But I am also amazed when women do feel the need to hover
over the seat in a corporate bathroom.  The corporate bathroom is cleaned
daily by housekeeping who wear white shirts and black vests.  They do a wonderful job. 
I understand hovering over the seat in a nasty gas station bathroom, but in a nice corporate
bathroom where seat protectors are provided and it gets cleaned every day?  That's just
paranoia ladies!!!!  Sit your arses down and stop peeing on the seat like men!!!

And just so you know, when a woman says "Thanks so much" in such a note - it really means
"For Fuck Sake"



This note actually seems like someone is BEGGING, PLEADING WITH US to flush twice.
The fact that we don't already KNOW to flush twice when we see a "floater"
is somewhat ridiculous.  I for one always check to see if I need a re-flush -
regardless of whether or not I am formally instructed to do so. 

Here, the flowery "Thank You" actually means "You Dumb Shit!"



This sign is appropriate - because it alerts us women to a
change in protocol.  You see, in most public women's restrooms, you CAN dispose of your
sanitary product in the discrete trash can provided in the actual stall. 
However, here, for some God-awful reason, we have to grab a bag out - and then
carry our used sanitary products out to the common area (in front of everyone) and toss them
in the main trash can.  I don't like this process, but I know how to follow instructions. 
Some people, obviously don't

I will admit - this is the note I made.  Which is a bold move by a contractor - I must say. 
But I did it early in the morning and waited until no one was looking. 
It wasn't until a week after I started noticing that some women weren't following instructions
before my God-given "don't let a woman get away with this - must leave a note" instinct kicked in. 
My reminder was short and sweet.  I don't think it was snippy at all. 
Just a "gentle reminder" if you will. 

 

This new step-by-step tutorial (with helpful pictures and strategic highlighting) was placed
in the restroom several days following my "THIS IS NOT A TRASH CAN" note.  I guess
this particular woman felt like mine was neither strong nor snippy enough to really get the job done.
I particularly like the red highlighted "(HERE'S THE IMPORTANT PART).  Well played corporate
woman.  Well played.

Here, the "Your Assistance is Greatly Appreciated" actually means "If you don't stop putting
your nasty ass used tampons in this compartment we will find you and make you eat them."

I suppose this note trumps my note and that my note can now be removed, but currently
both notes remain in the stall.



Housekeeping was also annoyed that we corporate women could not
following simple instructions so they refused to clean the unauthorized
rubbish and used sanitary products from the bag compartment. 
Therefore necessitating a note to housekeeping. My guess here is that the typed
portion of this note and the handwritten portion were done by two separate
women.  The handwriting woman obviously felt the need to accentuate
this letter - with additional snippiness.

So there you have it.  A walk through the gallery of snippy and "you are stupid as hell" notes placed throughout the corporate women's restroom.  I do hope you enjoyed it.

Have a great weekend y'all
