Customers top their stupidity

[The Hurting]

Just when I thought the customers couldn't get any worse at using a public bathroom, they managed to outdo themselves!

They managed to jam so much toilet paper in that it caused a massive overflow. Arrghh...

I later discovered that we had NO rolls of paper towel available, and I ended up wiping it up with the nearest available hand tissues (after my supervisor got some of it done). I wish we'd used a mop, because our paper towels are crap at wiping up major spills. I actually punched the wall in major frustration (while I cleaned up the rest of it), because I was so annoyed about the customers who did this. I don't have the time to deal with that!

This sort of thing is why the "children's area restroom" was removed during our remodel a few years back.......customers seemed to enjoy clogging the toilet, especially with paper towels.

That could actually have been kids. Between 2 and 4, had to keep a close eye on my eldest, including locking the bathroom when no adults awake as she loved stuffing the toilet and making it run over. If it was stuffed without human elimination, it was probably kids.

I don't think they were kids though, 99% of them are accompanied by their parents. I kind of wish they had been kids, because then I would have excused it to an extent. But 99% of the time, it's always adults.

That or shoplifters stuffing empty packaging in the toilet. What they can't seem to fit into the toilet itself they try to cram into the tank.

I told plain clothes that they should accompany shoplifters in the bathrooms, if they ever tried to pull something (i.e. trying to hide things down below)

BTW, I love your sig!

Worst I've ever seen was a parent flushing a dirty diaper, at a campsite that didn't have the best of plumbing in the first place. Yeah, 10,000 people, 5 flush toilets total, and this jerkwad ends up causing them to be dug up with a backhoe to fix the clog/ruptured pipe.

They were not well liked by the rest of the campsite.

Awhile back a customer told me, after visiting the restroom, that we were out of toilet paper. When I went to put in a new roll, I discovered why we were out: She had unrolled all of it into the toilet. I don't know how much it was, but it was enough to fill 3/4 of the bowl. This is one case where it's probably a good thing that she didn't flush.

That's just nasty. There had to be a trash can nearby!

These people have toilets at home, you'd think they'd have some understanding about how plumbing works.

Ah, but it's not their plumbing, so they don't have to pay to fix it/fix it themselves!

That's just it, they wouldn't even consider doing such a thing at home, but away from home - well that's someone else's problem. And I guarantee that they'll be the first ones up in arms when the bathroom gets closed down.

Little brother's sitting in there, shivering, and you have to wonder ... ???

Fwoosh!

If it wasn't for his head...

From what I understand, it was "What? That's a problem?"



They were told to not come back...
