Please - FLUSH

[Tony-NJ]

when using a shared bathroom at work or a public restroom!!!

Maybe throw in a "courtesy flush" for those larger restrooms.

 

[Annie&Hallie'sMom]

If it's yellow, let it mellow
If it's brown, flush it down
If it's green, don't make a scene
If it's black, you'd better send it back!

ewwww!!!!!!!!!

Ditto to what Von said. EWWW!

I agree, Tony. It bugs me when people don't flush.

 

[AMClvsMKY]

I agree!!

This made me think of something. I was in a Publix restroom the other day and an older lady opened her stall door, raised her leg up and flushed with her foot. That sure made me think twice about flushing with my hand anymore - who knows what she might of stepped in before

I'd also like to add: "After you flush...please wash your hands!" To me there is nothing worse than listening to the person in the stall next to you finish their business, flush and immediately leave the restroom! One of these days I'm gonna yell "HEY! I didn't hear any water running...did you wash your hands?" Just like I do at home.

Perhaps they should watch

I'm a toileteer!

And who doesn't dance to the beat of p-p-p-potty???

Sad but true story....

We had self-flushing toilets installed a few months ago in the restrooms at work.

Some toilets were a little too sensitive, others required some sort of flushing dance to cause the self-flush. It seemed as if many of our co-workers had never been to an airport, arena, or any other public area that had self-flushing toilets because if they did not flush, said co-workers walked away and left the toilets unflushed.

Consequently, we had a potty seminar. Employees were shown the magical red button to push in the event of a non-flush. It didn't help....

I am one of the "foot flushers" but I usually do it BEFORE I open the stall door, to avoid odd looks. I also wash my hands thoroughly and then use the paper towel to turn off the water and open the bathroom door. I have seen the number of people who touch that bathroom door without washing their hands. Yuck.

Flush, wash. . .where were the parents when these people were toddlers?!?

Peg, you and I have the same routine down. LOL

Seashelley, I have to say the only thing that annoys me more than the non-hand-washers are the hand-rinsers. You know the ones--they just rinse their hands under the water for 2 seconds, NO SOAP! I always feel like saying, "So do you feel better now that you've moved all the germs around a little bit?" What's the point of the rinse if you don't use soap? I don't get it.

This is a very interesting, albeit kinda gross, thread. Why oh why do people not flush in public restrooms??? It just boggles the mind. Nothing is more disgusting than entering a public restroom, when you really gotta go, and not one stall has a flushed toilet in it. Yucky!

In reference to those self flushing toilets..... these can be very mean to you.

Warning!!!!! Kind of Icky!!!!

I share this story only in hopes of protecting some of you out there from this same misfortune that occured to me.

It was a nice Sunday afternoon. SO and I were in Kissimmee with his mother and younger brother to visit his older brother who was at the time working at WDW. We ate lunch at the Chevy's mexican restaurant on 192 by the Target. Even before lunch was over I was feeling kinda sick to my stomach. We were headed to DTD to go to Disneyquest. I made it as far as the parking lot outside the AMC theater. I needed to find a restroom. SO's older brother jumped out of the car with me as the others went to park. We went to the AMC and he asked the usher if I could go in only to use a restroom, as I was about to be sick. I was permitted to go in. The AMC restrooms have self-flushing toilets. Needless to say, I got sick. The very, very, very icky part however is the self-flushing toilet flushed on me as I was bent over the toilet. Some of these self-flushers are very powerful and it shot stuff back up at me!!!

A word of advice. When feeling sick to your stomach, find a manual flush toilet!!!

 

[RNMOM]

EEEEWWWWW. How awful for you!

I am also a foot flusher and I will NOT touch a door knob in a public bathroom, or at work.

If they don't have paper towels, I use the inside of my shirt or sweater to grab the knob....or wait until the next person comes through the door and dash out before it closes.

 

[Claudia Kellenberger]

I have always been a foot flusher, and I think that it would spread less germs if everyone was a foot flusher.

P.S. Interesting thread

Perhaps they don't want to touch the flusher and don't have the balance to use their foot.

Maybe they should just put a button on the floor that we can step on to flush. This would also avoid those annoying "too soon" flushes from the automatic toilets.

And clean up the seat if you're a bad aim...
