At dinner Thursday night Janae entered to wrong bathroom. It wasn't until she washed her hands that she realized she may be in the wrong room. To help Janae and other ladies avoid an embarrassing moment like going into the wrong bathroom, here are a list of ten things that will let you know if you're in the wrong bathroom.
1. Smells like it hasn't been cleaned in weeks
2. Urinals line one wall
3. Air is filled with vulgar vocabulary
4. Those vocabulary words sound like they originated from a dude's voice
5. Toilet seats are up
6. When you look under the stall wall, people's feet are pointed at the toilet
7. Sound like someone's filling the toilet with water from a hose
8. When you hear a loud fart, its usually followed by someone saying "nice one" or "sweet"
9. Looks like the sinks haven't been used in years
10. If there's someone at the sink, it's probably a man
Janae don't feel bad, this actually happened to me not too long ago. I hate using public restrooms and avoid them at all costs. However, a couple of months ago we were at Sam's Club and after a breakfast that wasn't sitting well with me I had to make an immediate run to the restroom. I was in such a hurry that I didn't really pay attention as I headed in and made my way to the back stall. Now the seat was up (and this should have been my first clue) but I just assumed some lady had brought her little boy in and he had used the bathroom. The second clue was that the toilet wasn't flushed, but again I was in a hurry. Besides I always clean the seat with a gigantic wad of toilet paper and flush it and then use a cover before I go at any public bathroom. I was surprised that no one else was in the bathroom as the ladies room at Sam's is always packed. But the lack of people was much appreciated as this occasion required some privacy most public bathrooms don't provide. haha As I was washing my hands I happened to glance up and saw a man standing at the urinals going to the restroom. At this point I realize my mistake and literally ran out. Jason was standing there and had just finished checking out and I took the cart and told him, "Just keep moving!!!". I never looked back and Jason was really confused at my urgency to leave Sam's until we got outside and explained what had happened and he totally thought it was hilarious.
ReplyDeleteThis is not the first time it has happened to me. Janae it is probably because we are less discriminatory than others. Some girls may say,"Equal pay for women!" We say, "Equal bathrooms for all!" haha
On second thought, he top ten list could come in handy. Maybe I should print it out for future use. ;)
I guess I am used to the ladies room being on the right I don't remember even looking. I walk into the stall, seat up, thought a mom brought her son, put it down it was wet so I wiped it clean, as I was sitting there I hear a man's voice as he is talking to his son. At first I thought it was his mistake then I put two and two together and realized my mistake. Then I heard him go into a stall and make some unpleasant noises, I tried to peak through the crack to see if there were urinals, to no avail. I decided to make a run for it. I peaked out to make sure no one was in the common areas, I didn't even bother washing my hands I booked it! I ran out and straight into the womens room in hopes that I was speedy enough none of the patrons would recognize me when I came back out. As I ran into the women's bathroom panting I saw Ann Marie standing there washing her hands and she said "where were you I called your name when I came in and got no reply?" We laughed so hard as I relayed the whole story it was hilarious! How embarrasing! That's what I get for being so scatter brained.
ReplyDeleteI did this before teaching a class at the gym JUST the other night! was surprised how quickly they had completed a remodel of the women's bathroom. It seemed like a waste of money.... since the lockers, sinks and toilet stalls had all been rotated....but not really updated? hmmm???
ReplyDeleteI am washing my hands to find myself standing on someone's towell...and it clicked!! Women don't drop their towels on the floor after a shower. I was in the men's room at the GYM....mens room with showers and saunas and Naked People!!!! I darted out of there before I found the naked man it belonged to.
Only one fellow employee witnessed my swift exit.
Can't help but giggle about that one every time I think of how terrible it could have been!
