Title: The height of bad manners
Post by: Miss Demeanour on July 03, 2009, 11:58:50 AM
I have just been to the ladies . Not a unique event during the day I grant you.

We have some very nice toilets and there are 4 cubicles in them. However when I walked in just now  someone was in the end cubicle and having a very detailed conversation with her mate  on her mobile phone - whilst also doing what she had come in to do  eeek:

I'm sorry - but that is just crass ...and if I was her mate I would bloody well tell her to ring me back when she was more able to talk .

Not necessarily as that would imply brokers are normal people. ;)

Can you not stop talking to someone for a couple of minutes whilst you have to use your hands for other things.

True. Music is piped into the bathroom; I think it should be done in workplaces too.

We have these hooooge metal loo roll dispensers with metal teeth.

It is a two hand job to stick your hand up them and find where the last piece of toilet roll went to and then pull that down and away from the teeth ( otherwise injuries will occurr).

You then need to take other hand and manually tear,  slowly avoiding the jerk reaction and grazing caused by the backlash of the teeth

I used to have this when I was in the office. Like Miss D, I found it extremely bad form, thus I would finish my business, wash my hands and then form my hands into a cup, fill it with water and then chuck it over the cubicle wall, shouting "ignorant c*?t" as I did so.

I was extremely popular, I will have you know and a couple of the micreants involved even apologised - they thought they were doing nothing wrong. Ignorant proles.

I fail to see why you can't talk and crap at the same time. I wouldn't do it, but as multi tasking goes it seems OK to me

Seeing as this has taken a literary turn, I noticed this in the Telegraph today in an article discussing the pros and cons of responding to a damning book review:

Quote
It's always ill-advised to enter into correspondence, even in the classic response ? attributed to any number of people, though I believe the originator may have been the German composer Max Reger. "Sir: I am seated in the smallest room in the house. Your review is before me. Shortly it will be behind me."

 ;D

Meanwhile I talk a lot whilst in the "Littlest Room" ~ in fact I shout a lot.

"Get away from that bloody door, it's locked because there is someone in here you moron"
"Stop arguing with your brother and go and tidy your rooms"
"I don't care how desperate you are, there is another one up/down stairs BUT I AM IN THIS ONE"
"Will someone PLEASE ANSWER THAT DAMNED TELEPHONE"
"Go and see who is at the door you little **********!"

You will understand that these are just a few examples. The range is limitless.  cussing:
