This may seem petty or inconsequential to some, but I feel the need to put it out there. Public Restroom Etiquette! Here are some pet peeves of mine. * When there is a whole line of empty stalls and someone takes the one right next to yours. * People who don’t use the toilet seat paper covers. * People who don’t wash their hands after using the toilet (eeewww). * Pubic hair on the toilet seat (double eeewww!). * Pee splatter on the toilet seat (triple eeewww!). * People who take a perfunctory swipe under the water facet and shake their hands dry (no soap!). * People who open the restroom door with wet hands. * People who splatter the whole counter when using the sink (we’ll at least they’re washing their hands) but don’t wipe it up. * People who talk on their cell phones while doing the doo. * I don’t know about you, but I always feel uncomfortable holding a conversation with a co-worker while sitting on the pot (of course this doesn’t count in your own home; I can talk farts with the best of them!). * One of the women in the office across the hall always hangs a plastic grocery bag with her sanitary products on the knob of the sanitary product dispenser. Some months she even stacks them precariously on top of the dispenser. Folks, this is a PUBLIC restroom. Well now that I got that off my chest, I have to go down the hall.
