The bathroom at work is the source of much amusement and/or disgust. I definitely hear more sounds of elimination on a daily basis than I ever did working from home.

Today, as I walked out of the Accessible Stall (which I was using to change out of my biking clothes), a business guy walked into the bathroom talking on his phone. He walked straight into the stall and began deploying a paper butt gasket, all the while yapping into the cell.
classy.

You should holler "FOOD ESCAPE!" whenever someone heads into the stall.

Yeah? I can understand that. But you don't talk on your phone in a PUBLIC BATHROOM, do you? Where other people are making noises at just any old time? No!!

The big thing around my office is to talk to you while you're in the bathroom. It's very difficult, because I don't want to rudely ignore someone who is trying to get my attention while I do my secret things .. but I don't want to talk to them either.

Maybe you could respond with a very dignified, flat, "I am peeing." We have the talking thing going on a little bit here, too. Yeah, come to think of it I think they sometimes hold meetings in there.

Wow, this just reminded me about a book I'm reading that made me think of you. The lead guy in the story reminds me of you so much it's creepy. Hahaha, it's my favorite book.

Yeah, exactly. But then again, those business guys, they like pretending that it is ALWAYS AN APPROPRIATE TIME FOR BUSINESS!! Driving 60 through a school zone at noon? Businesstime! Waiting in line at the coffeeshop LETS MAKE A DEAL!!#!#

Oops, sorry. I guess there is always a price to pay for reading my journal. But really, I don't talk about the bathroom all THAT often.

Well, it got more popular than I really anticipated it ever getting and kind of crashed my web host repeatedly. That part took some work to fix.

Not to mention it clued 10,000,000 random jobbers into your LJ. Of course, I ought to include myself in that number, but I don't out of sheer cussedness and bloody-minded determination.
