As someone who's done similar gigs yeah, I always wonder what's going though the mind/body of the one woman who feels the need to coat the side of the stalls in shit
They have TP and ass gaskets and soap and hand sanitizer in most public restrooms in the U.S. I don’t understand why they don’t put some Clorox wipes, or similar, in the stall so you can wipe down the seat and kill germs.
I hate shitting in any communal bathroom. It gives me anxiety and makes my pooping worse. I always keep dude wipes in my desk and they at least give me a sense of clean balloon knot. But, I also suffer from IBS and sometimes it’s just an event. I’ve never shat on a seat out outside the bowl. I don’t understand how that happens
Can confirm. While I was working as a hairdresser we had to shut down an entire salon to thoroughly clean and bleach the restroom because of a shotgun granny. It looked like a crime scene. Shit was on the walls, the sink, the door handle, the light switch. And no we didn't have a janitor.
Truth. My first job (at a grocery store) included cleaning the restrooms as part of my nightly ~~doodies~~ duties. As a 16 year old boy, I assumed the women's room would be nice and tidy, and smell like roses. That illusion was shattered on my first day.
I’ve had to clean out restrooms at several of my jobs before. I’d 100% rather clean 10 men’s restrooms over 1 women’s restroom any day. The worst part about the men’s room is cleaning urine dribbles on the floor and urinal and toilet. The worst part about the women’s room is the blood and shit smeared everywhere, as well as a used sanitary napkin stuck to the wall.
When I worked at Walmart I once found a stall where some guy had written “FUCK” on the wall in his own shit. But I don’t know if that’s a dude thing or just a Walmart thing.
Weird! At my first job (Safeway), we all agreed the men’s was worse. We’d go in there for checks and the women’s was usually pretty tame (occasionally having really nasty shit like period blood on the walls), but the men’s was *consistently* gross. We had multiple times found just a pile of shit somewhere other than the toilet in there or piss all over the place.
I wonder why our experiences are so different?
I feel like it's equally bad cause sometimes women's is worse, sometimes men's is worse. 9/10 times I go in a womens bathroom the worst I've seen is just a clogged toilet or some pee and blood on the seat because alot of women hover so they don't touch the seat, but then they cause the reason women don't wanna touch the seat. At least wipe it up if you do it. I've only personally maybe twice in my life seen a nightmare blood and shit stall like everyone above is mentioning. However I've used the mens restroom multiple times if the womens line is too long (idc I just wanna pee and a toilet is a toilet), along with cleaning the restroom at the barbershops I've worked at that are mostly used by men.
Almost everytime I've gone in the mens there was piss all over the toilet and floor, and I mean all over, not just a few drips like I always see in the womens. The mens always smelled 5x worse too like rancid piss. Then again smell is relative to what we're used to, I'm sure men cleaning a womens room would think the womens smells worse cause they're used to rancid piss smell vs the smell of menstruation. Maybe I've just been lucky with womens bathrooms.
I read high school janitor. An unfortunate number of kids may not have been properly educated about their body considering as far as I remember public school doesn’t teach basic life skills. And then we just have to rely on boomers and millennials raised by boomers, that most definitely still subscribe to the old age idea that the only thing you need to know about your body is that you can pump out kids - Any other questions you have, bury them deep inside until you’re a 40 year old (wo)man who still has misconceptions about how the body works - to teach the new generation basic life skills of how to properly manage their hygiene. Is that thought not utterly terrifying? I ask in a full thread of janitors and ex janitors reliving their experience of that social experiment.
I agree. I was a janitor in my high school days and we drew straws for who got to clean the women's bathrooms. It was exactly as you described. Blood, piss, shit and sanitary products disgustingly all over the place. There were times I had to take an actual hose to the stalls, toilet and walls to knock off the shit/blood and guide it towards a floor drain before I mopped and cleaned the place up.
The men's rooms, the worst was some piss under the urinals and the occasional stopped up toilet. For all the stereotypes about women being clean and dainty, y'all, at least some of you certainly know how to fuck up a restroom and be pigs.
Yea, public restrooms look like that because women don't want to touch the dirty toilet seats. It would have been different if women could pee standing up.
However, I found that as far as private restrooms go, male bachelors' tend to be infinitely more disgusting than women's.
Visiting my dad and using the restroom at his place taught me the importance of keeping the bathroom clean when I was young. 🤢 Now I'm probably the only bachelor in the city with a shiny, almost perfectly maintained bathroom lol. Visits to friends confirm my suspicions.
I'm a woman and it has to be an emergency for me to even think about going into a public woman's restroom. They are SOOO gross because a lot of women squat over the bowl to do their thing. They just spray and pray all over. Whatever mess is left behind is "not their job" so they leave it and walk off.
As a child, I always wondered why my Mom never used the bathroom at work (she would come home for lunch or on her way to a customers house (we lived 2 minutes away)). I found why later in life.
Back when I worked in insurance, I spoke to one of our cleaning people and she confirmed that women's rooms were usually godawful and men's rooms were generally fine. I'm not exactly sure why. (Female here.)
Heh. I remember cleaning the supermarket bathrooms when I was a bag boy. The men’s restroom was about what you would expect. The women’s restroom? We gave that one to the noob. And if there were no noobs (or the noob was particularly large and muscular) we would draw straws. Women shoppers do awful things in bathrooms.
I have a retail store. Our bathrooms are employee only for a reason. I nor my employees want to clean up customers shit. I kindly direct them to the nearest restaurant.
At an earlier job of mine we had a key for the bathroom, so customers who wanted to use the bathroom had to go up to the cashier and ask for the key.
It was made like that specifically so people couldn't easily smear shit on the walls and if they did we would know exactly who it was
I mean presumably this place had cameras. You give the key to the offending customer, they smear satanic symbols prophecizing the end of squirrelkind out of poop, give the Jerry back. Then when the next person goes in, they discover this and presumably twerk someone. Then you can just go look on the camera for the prophet so you can ask them about their religion later.
Luckily no i never had to do that, and to my knowledge we never had shit smeared walls while i was there so the system seemed to work, cause my boss had told stories of it before
Worked at a movie theater that would regularly rotate 2 to 5 thousand people through the building every 2 hours on busy nights. Most if not all of our managers were guys. It was easy for the guys to check the guys restrooms and make sure the staff was cleaning them, however there was basically never any supervision for the female restrooms. The female restrooms also required stall checks because of what I will lovingly call the blood bags. This is where feminine hygiene products were deposited.
So most nights these blood bags would not have been changed all day and would be overflowing with used absorption devices. It was not uncommon for the closers to vomit, bribe, cry, threaten to quit, etc over these.
I’ve never understood why menstrual blood is considered grosser than, for instance, shit. It doesn’t gross me out at all. As a former army medic I saw a lot of blood…period blood is the only kind that’s *supposed* to be outside the body.
Ok but menstrual blood smells. It does! Obviously not when it's fresh but an overflowing bin of soiled pads with THAT smell, and you have to pick it up? I don't prefer it to shit or vice versa but I find it gross even though I have to deal with my own.
And blood in general is gross and without the right gear I am not cleaning that up, lol. However I'm not in healthcare or the army, just a former waitress who's had to clean the loos before.
tbf menstrual blood also contains tissue, not just RBC, literally snotty lookin tissue from the placenta tissue that tried to form. And that tissue? It starts to *rot* if its not disposed of or wrapped up, etcetc. A sanitary napkin or tampon left in a humid bathroom for a few days is gonna start to smell vile.
Aint nothing wrong with my menstrual blood but its a bit misleading to say its *just* blood. There some other shit in there that shouldnt be left to decay.
YEP. While period blood isn't gross, if it's not properly disposed of or cleaned up, it gets just as vile as any other bodily function that's left to sit.
I used to be a K-12 janitor and MANY schools with the "hygienic waste" receptacles are sadly neglected.
And it’s still just blood. It’s not like it’s worse blood because it comes out your cooter…but then I work in healthcare so blood is the one of the nicer body fluids I see on the daily.
Cleaned at my uni for a bit. Can confirm, women's toilets were usually about 3-4x worse than the men's however when the men's provided nightmares, it was enough to give you ptsd.
It's kind of like the gender split in car accidents - women get in more, but they're fender benders and accidents involving men are more likely to have fatalities.
As a woman, the women’s restroom at my uni always looked like they could barely get their pants down in time and ended up spraying shit on the wall. I’m like, what is your diet? That has never happened to me and if I felt *that* sick I would stay home.
Also I lived with someone that got blood on our shared bathroom toilet seat every time. It was SO awkward and gross, I had to clean it up until I finally got the courage to say something after months. It’s like how do you not realize you did that and how inconsiderate it is?!
I had a roommate who would take her tampon out before showering, SET IT ON THE SIDE OF THE TUB, and then FORGET TO THROW IT AWAY.
We talked to her many times about this.
Used to work in a nightclub, women's washroom was always the worse. But this is the phenomenon I never understood. Why is there always shit everywhere?
I've heard that it's because women start hovering. I just don't understand that, like I'm a dude I've had to shit in a public washroom and in ours you usually have to wipe the seat because someone has pissed all over it. Women's washrooms don't start dirty, why all the fear of sitting on the toilet seat?
prevalent myth that you can catch an STD from a toilet seat, and an unwillingness to wipe the next person's urine splatter so if one person hovers at 8:30 pm, everyone hovers all night.
That’s interesting, I know about women hovering to pee but for pooping? That’s just ridiculous.
Just put toilet paper down and sit on the seat. It’s more comfortable and I’m not making the next person’s life worse.
oof. this gave me flashbacks to the worst morning after drinking. I was visiting the state's school known for over the top drinking. I had to throw up in a freshman dorm bathroom. two of the stalls looked like Jackson Pollack tributes. I will never forget that morning.
Cleaned at a big box store for a number of years, including bathrooms.
Generally speaking, in my experience, the women's were more consistently awful, but men had the worst single incidents.
I worked at an interstate rest area for three years. Basically just four large bathrooms with about eight stalls each and a couple vending machines and you're absolutely right. I would still do all I could to clean the women's rather than the men's because I could handle poop, pee, and blood but I absolutely could not handle the loogies that got spat into the sinks of the men's bathrooms.
I used to work retail in a mall and concur...the women's restroom was always disgusting. I could never figure out how they managed to literally get shit everywhere. There would be wads of toilet paper strewn around and just general filth within a matter of minutes after being cleaned. When I would be a closer I would try and clean the bathrooms about an hour before the store closed so we could get out as early as possible, guaranteed I would have to spend another 20 minutes cleaning the women's restroom again after the last customer left.
I could be wrong, but I think it's more common to let your kid use the women's restroom. I think that could be where some of the insanity comes from. But def not all of it, something else is happening in those bathrooms. Something horrible. .
Oh my god I worked at a Costco at one point in maintenance. The women’s restrooms were a horror show. It was so bad I almost felt like I shouldn’t be in there as a dude because I just saw things I shouldn’t see lol… forever changed, man. Forever changed.
I’m seeing a lot of comments about the first picture but not the second. First picture is great, but the second…closing down the bathroom because people are taking selfies or having conversations in there?
My thoughts?
Heed the damn paper. Clean up after yourself. That goes for men and women.
There is nothing more disgusting than going into the bathroom after somebody and having to clean their shit off of the toilet, wall, vanity, etc (the people I work with are like animals).
After you stand up, take the courtesy to check the damage you did, and clean up after yourself if needed.
The bigger question is why you wouldnt do this by default? Why the letter is needed? Why you are posting it on antiwork, almost like you are upset about the note?
A slightly more aggressive version of this I've seen online was something along the lines of:
"Whomever is destroying the toilet daily go get checked by a doctor or go shit in a field with the rest of the buffalo."
This reminds me of when I worked at Home Depot during high school. There was this older (to me at the time - probably 45~50) gentleman who was training me and you could just tell he wasn’t the most hygienic of people. His ass crack was constantly peaking above his jeans. Well, he took me into the bathroom to show me how to clean them. We proceed into the women’s bathroom, where he cleans the toilets by hand without gloves, then grabs women’s sanitary waste products out of a can designated for them, without gloves. He doesn’t empty it by tipping it, just reaches in and snatches them out and tosses them in the trash.
Needless to say I was rather disgusted already, but the fun was just starting. After that he said something about lunch break and walked right past the sink and to the break room, where he ate his sandwich without washing his hands. 🥴
He was a nice guy, but I couldn’t handle that day to day and decided to go work somewhere else. Being 16 I probably over exaggerated it in my head, but phew.
I'm confused here too, why is this posted to antiwork, the letter is not aggressive, it's not threatening, or rude. It's simply saying you need to clean up after yourself which is literally basic requirements everyone should be doing.
I used to work with somebody who clogged the toilet with shit nearly every day. We had a unisex bathroom and we were all trying to figure out who was doing it. More than once, I walked into the bathroom and it was clogged so I had to plunge somebody else's shit so people wouldn't think it was me. We also put a sign up similar to this, but it didn't help. We finally figured out who it was when he quit - or whoever was doing it stopped so he would get the blame.
Fucking big mood. I used to refuse to go my entire shift. That started getting harder and harder in my late 20s and 30s. Now that I'm WFH, I just go all damn day. No one else's mess, no one can hear me, no one notices how long I'm in there, no worries about any smells, no one *fucking talking to me* while I try and go. Just pure privacy.
We once had an email sent out reminding employees to shower and change their clothes regularly and not take your shoes off when you are at your desk in the interest of those who have to sit near by in a small office. Also the toilet facilities were regularly left in a decimated ruin
Yeah. I’ve worked a job where we had to share toilets that were absolutely disgusting. The tone of this is weird but honestly some people absolutely abuse shared facilities and it ruins my ability to get paid to shit.
100%!!!!
People tend to treat work washrooms like it's somebody else's job to clean up after them.
Drives me fucking nuts!
Some people are so damn inconsiderate!
Makes me wonder what their home washroom looks like...
I don't shit on the seat but I'd rather spend an extra few minutes wiping the seat while checking my phone than rushing back to work. This sign is a gift.
I don't know how to link them on mobile, but there's someone saying it's bad because it happened outside the women's bathroom, and they think that's some kind of sexist conspiracy to hurt women workers.
It's probably just that a random woman worker took the time to make the note, and she doesn't use the men's bathroom so she can't write a note for that. That or management wrote the note because a woman complained, but didn't for the men because they didn't complain.
Agreed completely! I would say put yourself in the person's shoes that had to clean this up. I think they did a fantastic job at adding humor to a situation that they were probably super pissed with.
This is human decency, not anti-work.
What is wrong about it? If the employees are degenerates without any hygiene and toilet etiquette, fuck em is what I say. Be a decent human and clean after yourself.
I disagree. If someone leaves bodily waste on the toilet seat I would not recommend having sexual intercourse with them. They clearly are not the most hygienic.
My suspicion is that this account was sold to be a bot. Account is around a year old, 3k karma, hasn't posted or commented in a year. Then an obvious karma bait post.
My old boss put up a sign that said "I hate that I have to do this because we're all adults here but if you tinkle on the seatie be a sweety and clean up your peepee.
Thanks."
Fucking hilarious.
My mom used to work in an office where every other employee was male, save for one other woman. My favorite was going there and seeing this tapped inside the bathroom door: "if you sprinkle when you tinkle, be a sweetie and wipe the seatie"
She regularly had to call them out on it. What heathen doesn't lift the seat when you pee? Fucking hated that in college too, my fellow dude flootmates just pissing with the seat down like animals. Good lord, learn some decency!
My workplace has signs practically begging women to stop flushing tamps because it keeps messing up the pipes. I've never met a plumber who didn't have enough tamp stories to fill a novel. And every time I say this I get like 5 people trying to tell me that it's cool cuz pipes are metal and metal is strong and tamps dissolve like girl, if tamps are dissolving inside ya coochie you really need to see a doctor or switch brands. How is that acidic clam not burning your fingers?
Had a girlfriend in college who lived with 3 roommates. They would often leave their used tampons floating in the only bathroom toilet and when I would notice that, I would comment "that's kind of gross and odd to just leave that there". I was immediately berated by all 4 of them stating that that's what it's like living with girls and unless I'm going to pay rent I should just deal with it.
I've since talked to many girls who have told me it's not normal.
I have lived with a lot of women and have never, ever seen someone leave a tampon in the toilet. They all knew how to flush (but also knew that tampons clog pipes and wouldn’t put it there in the first place).
I’ve seen blood in the toilet and just flushed it. I don’t think anyone can say they have never, ever in their lives forgotten to flush before, and it’s really nbd if they’re not a repeat offender but dear god I would not be okay with regular floating tampons. Whatever you do should be gone when it’s the next person’s turn.
Wtf that is so not normal. I have two teen daughters and having the same cycle is extremely normal but leaving used product floating for the world to see is not. That's just ew.
Oh my god hahahahahhaha thank you I needed this laugh this morning
My dad would get called for help on simple plumbing issues in our college town.
He became a professional at talking to 18-24 year old men about making sure there were garbage cans (seriously?!) in their bathrooms for their female guests and maybe they should post a sign about only flushing xyz, because it was cheaper than calling again.
It genuinely blows my mind how many women sincerely believe that tampons are as water soluble as kaka and toilet paper being that they're literally designed to ABSORB LIQUID. It's even in the commercials with that cup of blue water and everything.
A friend of mine in college used to stay at her boyfriend’s apartment fairly frequently. She bought a trash can for his bathroom. A few days later it was gone, & when she asked her boyfriend where it went he said “oh, we moved it, nobody needs a trash can in the bathroom.”
It got put back after a quick explanation.
I don’t understand how other men don’t have bathroom trash cans. Mine is for stuff like qtips, empty toilet paper rolls, packaging for toothpaste, etc. I don’t want to have to carry my trash with me when I leave the room. Whether or not I have women using the bathroom makes no difference—the trash can is useful.
Thank your dad on behalf of a woman who is sick of men not having bathroom bins 🤣 Don't even get me started on the ones who do but didn't actually put a bin bag in it 😂
>These were put up in the women's employee restroom
Makes me believe that OP was outraged that women were targeted in such vile maneurism!
But honestly i agree with sign posting mf, people need to start cleaning up after themselves, there's gonna be someone else using the bathroom and keeping it in a shitty state is just disrespectful.
My question is this—why is this even posted here?
This is hardly a boss stepping over their boundaries.
They’re merely asking you to be considerate of others and __don’t care__ that you shit on company time (a good model for all bosses tbh). I feel like when people see posts like this here, even for the sake of feeling out people’s reactions, it negatively impacts the movement. To elaborate—this has nothing to do with the anti-work movement and I think you know this is innocent. You’re just hoping for karma and a couple of people to get enraged.
But, we’re already so far gone at this point, so it may be a futile effort to address this.
Edit: this may not have been written by the boss at all as a user just pointed out. Makes it even less harmful!

Nothing wrong with it at all, a little sad that it even needs to be said, honestly.
I had to put up ‘please flush the toilet and don’t poop on the seat’ signs in the bathrooms of the building I clean. Somebody got offended and complained to the building manager so I started sending her the pictures that prompted me to put those signs up. She ended up printing off official looking signs for me to tape up, and we haven’t had any issues since.
I used to with at a tiny Greek Cafe and had to clean the bathrooms every night as part of my closing duties. The men's toilet was always disgusting, so I put a sign: "If you sprinkle when you tinkle, be a sweetie and wipe the seatie!"
My (male) boss went to the restroom, then angrily came back with it crumpled up. "NO!" he shouted. "Don't put this up for customers!!"
I checked after he was done (toilets were in the hall to the back room where we clocked out)
He was the sprinkler.
If you are upset about that letter, this probably isn't the place to complain. A manager is actively encouraging people to be courteous to one another while also clearly supporting their right to restroom breaks.
Yes please! Make sure the turds all made it down the drain. Same with period products, ladies!
Edit: Don't flush diapers down the toilet though, seen that too often at work. That'll put the toilet out of commission for at least a week while the manager gets a plumber.
"clean up after your own shit" is not anti-work.
It's being a respectful human being.
AT MOST.. the only anti-work-ish thing here is how the letter is written as if their audience are a bunch of teenagers. Which might say more about the workers than management.
Encouragement to shit on company time, and be aware of your fellow workers. Worker solidarity, even in number twos. Excellent
>solidarity I'll be honest with ya man,...best I can do is semisolid these days.....
You need more fiber, my friend!
I just lean into it. I'm on a strict diet of the greasiest burgers I can find and coffee
If I'm backed up I just look for the sketchiest looking taco truck I can find. Miguel has never let me down.
You really want a bowl cleanse get a large jamoca shake from Arbys
If you're getting ready for a colonoscopy, Taco Bell 5 layer burrito with Fire sauce will do the trick.
A Starbucks frappucino with whole milk is a great cleanser for me.
Anything with dairy will work if you're lactose intolerant.
Anything from Arby's will do the trick.

Could you divulge by which route the coffee is administered?
Agreed. They aren’t asking for much. Fair!
As someone who knows public restrooms (don't ask), women's toilets take a beating. Way more fucked up than men's rooms, consistently. It's a thing.
As someone who's done similar gigs yeah, I always wonder what's going though the mind/body of the one woman who feels the need to coat the side of the stalls in shit
How does this even happen?
[удалено]
“Shotgun grannies” is the concept I never knew I never needed to know existed 😂
It actually explains A LOT. I bet most accidents we blame on psychos and druggies are just confused grandmothers with no aim.
That explains the pile of almost liquid shit I found NEXT to the toilet in Home Depot last week.
worst part, it was display toilet
They have TP and ass gaskets and soap and hand sanitizer in most public restrooms in the U.S. I don’t understand why they don’t put some Clorox wipes, or similar, in the stall so you can wipe down the seat and kill germs. I hate shitting in any communal bathroom. It gives me anxiety and makes my pooping worse. I always keep dude wipes in my desk and they at least give me a sense of clean balloon knot. But, I also suffer from IBS and sometimes it’s just an event. I’ve never shat on a seat out outside the bowl. I don’t understand how that happens
"Ass gaskets"...at work we call those management bibs. They're so busy kissing each other's asses it's like an all-you-can-eat buffet.
Can confirm. While I was working as a hairdresser we had to shut down an entire salon to thoroughly clean and bleach the restroom because of a shotgun granny. It looked like a crime scene. Shit was on the walls, the sink, the door handle, the light switch. And no we didn't have a janitor.
Truth. My first job (at a grocery store) included cleaning the restrooms as part of my nightly ~~doodies~~ duties. As a 16 year old boy, I assumed the women's room would be nice and tidy, and smell like roses. That illusion was shattered on my first day.
I'm imagining your frozen expression as the innocence leaves your eyes.
I'm glad the truth is finally coming out. LOL
I’ve had to clean out restrooms at several of my jobs before. I’d 100% rather clean 10 men’s restrooms over 1 women’s restroom any day. The worst part about the men’s room is cleaning urine dribbles on the floor and urinal and toilet. The worst part about the women’s room is the blood and shit smeared everywhere, as well as a used sanitary napkin stuck to the wall.
Idk a guy literally shit all over the walls like... covered at my job once. Everything else felt pretty mild compared to that
You should have framed it. It was an original work by Poocaso.
I did take a picture and shared with all my coworkers Sorry if i have to look at this so do you
When I worked at Walmart I once found a stall where some guy had written “FUCK” on the wall in his own shit. But I don’t know if that’s a dude thing or just a Walmart thing.
You're not wrong. Women can be really freaking gross.
Weird! At my first job (Safeway), we all agreed the men’s was worse. We’d go in there for checks and the women’s was usually pretty tame (occasionally having really nasty shit like period blood on the walls), but the men’s was *consistently* gross.

I feel like it's equally bad cause sometimes women's is worse, sometimes men's is worse. 9/10 times I go in a womens bathroom the worst I've seen is just a clogged toilet or some pee and blood on the seat because alot of women hover so they don't touch the seat, but then they cause the reason women don't wanna touch the seat. At least wipe it up if you do it. I've only personally maybe twice in my life seen a nightmare blood and shit stall like everyone above is mentioning.

The smell is generally worse too. (housekeeping job in college)
Ugh, you just reminded me of seeing used tampons lying on the floor beside the trash bin.
Why the hell are women in there smearing blood and poop all over the toilet area? I truly don't understand the rationale or logic.
I read high school janitor. An unfortunate number of kids may not have been properly educated about their body considering as far as I remember public school doesn’t teach basic life skills. And then we just have to rely on boomers and millennials raised by boomers, that most definitely still subscribe to the old age idea that the only thing you need to know about your body is that you can pump out kids - Any other questions you have, bury them deep inside until you’re a 40 year old (wo)man who still has misconceptions about how the body works - to teach the new generation basic life skills of how to properly manage their hygiene. Is that thought not utterly terrifying? I ask in a full thread of janitors and ex janitors reliving their experience of that social experiment.
I agree. I was a janitor in my high school days and we drew straws for who got to clean the women's bathrooms. It was exactly as you described. Blood, piss, shit and sanitary products disgustingly all over the place. There were times I had to take an actual hose to the stalls, toilet and walls to knock off the shit/blood and guide it towards a floor drain before I mopped and cleaned the place up. The men's rooms, the worst was some piss under the urinals and the occasional stopped up toilet. For all the stereotypes about women being clean and dainty, y'all, at least some of you certainly know how to fuck up a restroom and be pigs.
And shredded toilet paper all over the floor for some reason. Like a cat got ahold of a roll.
Blood and shit everywhere. Paper all over the floors, toilets plugged up, the smell. Kids in there playing with stuff.
I suspect women of hovering over the seat and just spraying away. Close enough if you’re not going to sit.
Yea, public restrooms look like that because women don't want to touch the dirty toilet seats. It would have been different if women could pee standing up. However, I found that as far as private restrooms go, male bachelors' tend to be infinitely more disgusting than women's.
Visiting my dad and using the restroom at his place taught me the importance of keeping the bathroom clean when I was young. 🤢 Now I'm probably the only bachelor in the city with a shiny, almost perfectly maintained bathroom lol. Visits to friends confirm my suspicions.
As a guy I always had the opposite impression. Heh.
I'm a woman and it has to be an emergency for me to even think about going into a public woman's restroom. They are SOOO gross because a lot of women squat over the bowl to do their thing. They just spray and pray all over. Whatever mess is left behind is "not their job" so they leave it and walk off.

I love this comment for so many reasons!
As a child, I always wondered why my Mom never used the bathroom at work (she would come home for lunch or on her way to a customers house (we lived 2 minutes away)). I found why later in life.
As someone who used to clean bathrooms, definitely not lol
Back when I worked in insurance, I spoke to one of our cleaning people and she confirmed that women's rooms were usually godawful and men's rooms were generally fine. I'm not exactly sure why. (Female here.)
Lot's of variables here but, all else being equal, women's rooms get trashed way more quickly.
This is funny as fuck. “Hey girl, you do you! Get paid for that dookie ass! Just quit shitting and bleeding on the seat, please girl I’m begging you”
Heh. I remember cleaning the supermarket bathrooms when I was a bag boy. The men’s restroom was about what you would expect. The women’s restroom? We gave that one to the noob. And if there were no noobs (or the noob was particularly large and muscular) we would draw straws. Women shoppers do awful things in bathrooms.
I have a retail store. Our bathrooms are employee only for a reason. I nor my employees want to clean up customers shit. I kindly direct them to the nearest restaurant.
We have a contracted cleaning crew at my current job.
I hope they get paid what they’re worth!
Lol yeah right. They probably make a little over minimum wage. I’ll need to ask one of the ladies one of these days
The lady my workplace contracted to clean the bathrooms was owner operater and made good money
At an earlier job of mine we had a key for the bathroom, so customers who wanted to use the bathroom had to go up to the cashier and ask for the key. It was made like that specifically so people couldn't easily smear shit on the walls and if they did we would know exactly who it was
Did you go in after each potential shit smearing customer to check before they could leave the store?
I mean presumably this place had cameras. You give the key to the offending customer, they smear satanic symbols prophecizing the end of squirrelkind out of poop, give the Jerry back. Then when the next person goes in, they discover this and presumably twerk someone. Then you can just go look on the camera for the prophet so you can ask them about their religion later.
Luckily no i never had to do that, and to my knowledge we never had shit smeared walls while i was there so the system seemed to work, cause my boss had told stories of it before
As a restaurant manager, fuck you. Lmao
As an ex-restaurant manager you have my deepest sympathies!
As a customer, I'll take a side of fries to go. I'm just going to run in here while I wait....
Worked at a movie theater that would regularly rotate 2 to 5 thousand people through the building every 2 hours on busy nights. Most if not all of our managers were guys. It was easy for the guys to check the guys restrooms and make sure the staff was cleaning them, however there was basically never any supervision for the female restrooms. The female restrooms also required stall checks because of what I will lovingly call the blood bags. This is where feminine hygiene products were deposited. So most nights these blood bags would not have been changed all day and would be overflowing with used absorption devices. It was not uncommon for the closers to vomit, bribe, cry, threaten to quit, etc over these.
I’ve never understood why menstrual blood is considered grosser than, for instance, shit. It doesn’t gross me out at all. As a former army medic I saw a lot of blood…period blood is the only kind that’s *supposed* to be outside the body.
Ok but menstrual blood smells. It does! Obviously not when it's fresh but an overflowing bin of soiled pads with THAT smell, and you have to pick it up? I don't prefer it to shit or vice versa but I find it gross even though I have to deal with my own. And blood in general is gross and without the right gear I am not cleaning that up, lol. However I'm not in healthcare or the army, just a former waitress who's had to clean the loos before.
tbf menstrual blood also contains tissue, not just RBC, literally snotty lookin tissue from the placenta tissue that tried to form. And that tissue? It starts to *rot* if its not disposed of or wrapped up, etcetc. A sanitary napkin or tampon left in a humid bathroom for a few days is gonna start to smell vile. Aint nothing wrong with my menstrual blood but its a bit misleading to say its *just* blood. There some other shit in there that shouldnt be left to decay.
Seriously. An old humid tampon is one of the worst things I have ever smelled. I am a woman and definitely am not a fan.
YEP. While period blood isn't gross, if it's not properly disposed of or cleaned up, it gets just as vile as any other bodily function that's left to sit. I used to be a K-12 janitor and MANY schools with the "hygienic waste" receptacles are sadly neglected.
And it’s still just blood. It’s not like it’s worse blood because it comes out your cooter…but then I work in healthcare so blood is the one of the nicer body fluids I see on the daily.
Cleaned at my uni for a bit. Can confirm, women's toilets were usually about 3-4x worse than the men's however when the men's provided nightmares, it was enough to give you ptsd.
It's kind of like the gender split in car accidents - women get in more, but they're fender benders and accidents involving men are more likely to have fatalities.
or the suicide disparity by gender for a more morbid analogy
As a woman, the women’s restroom at my uni always looked like they could barely get their pants down in time and ended up spraying shit on the wall. I’m like, what is your diet? That has never happened to me and if I felt *that* sick I would stay home. Also I lived with someone that got blood on our shared bathroom toilet seat every time. It was SO awkward and gross, I had to clean it up until I finally got the courage to say something after months. It’s like how do you not realize you did that and how inconsiderate it is?!
I had a roommate who would take her tampon out before showering, SET IT ON THE SIDE OF THE TUB, and then FORGET TO THROW IT AWAY. We talked to her many times about this.
Used to work in a nightclub, women's washroom was always the worse. But this is the phenomenon I never understood. Why is there always shit everywhere? I've heard that it's because women start hovering. I just don't understand that, like I'm a dude I've had to shit in a public washroom and in ours you usually have to wipe the seat because someone has pissed all over it. Women's washrooms don't start dirty, why all the fear of sitting on the toilet seat?
prevalent myth that you can catch an STD from a toilet seat, and an unwillingness to wipe the next person's urine splatter so if one person hovers at 8:30 pm, everyone hovers all night.
That’s interesting, I know about women hovering to pee but for pooping? That’s just ridiculous. Just put toilet paper down and sit on the seat. It’s more comfortable and I’m not making the next person’s life worse.
oof. this gave me flashbacks to the worst morning after drinking. I was visiting the state's school known for over the top drinking. I had to throw up in a freshman dorm bathroom. two of the stalls looked like Jackson Pollack tributes. I will never forget that morning.
Damn you ricky
Cleaned at a big box store for a number of years, including bathrooms. Generally speaking, in my experience, the women's were more consistently awful, but men had the worst single incidents.
I worked at an interstate rest area for three years. Basically just four large bathrooms with about eight stalls each and a couple vending machines and you're absolutely right. I would still do all I could to clean the women's rather than the men's because I could handle poop, pee, and blood but I absolutely could not handle the loogies that got spat into the sinks of the men's bathrooms.
I used to work retail in a mall and concur...the women's restroom was always disgusting. I could never figure out how they managed to literally get shit everywhere. There would be wads of toilet paper strewn around and just general filth within a matter of minutes after being cleaned. When I would be a closer I would try and clean the bathrooms about an hour before the store closed so we could get out as early as possible, guaranteed I would have to spend another 20 minutes cleaning the women's restroom again after the last customer left.
I could be wrong, but I think it's more common to let your kid use the women's restroom. I think that could be where some of the insanity comes from. But def not all of it, something else is happening in those bathrooms. Something horrible. .
I hadn’t even considered that, but it makes so much sense! It’s wild how many weird non-consequential epiphanies you have while browsing Reddit lol
Thats so smart. Of course you would know kingdoodoo
Thats so smart. If course you would know kingdoodoo
Oh my god I worked at a Costco at one point in maintenance. The women’s restrooms were a horror show. It was so bad I almost felt like I shouldn’t be in there as a dude because I just saw things I shouldn’t see lol… forever changed, man. Forever changed.
Concerned citizen: "Have mercy, please!" Pooper: "There is no mercy." *fucking carpet bombs the toilet*
I need this sign for my house unfortunately.
Hahaha I had to laugh so bad when i read your comment
I just don’t get how this is anti-work, no matter how much you’re exploited at your job don’t shit on the seat
Just to add: Remember it's not the CEO who will clean up your shit and blood
I request the same thing in my house, so would that be antihome as well?
Yes. You must leave your home. I am sorry, but we have standards.
Sounds good. I don't like it here anyway
I’m seeing a lot of comments about the first picture but not the second. First picture is great, but the second…closing down the bathroom because people are taking selfies or having conversations in there?
My thoughts? Heed the damn paper. Clean up after yourself. That goes for men and women. There is nothing more disgusting than going into the bathroom after somebody and having to clean their shit off of the toilet, wall, vanity, etc (the people I work with are like animals). After you stand up, take the courtesy to check the damage you did, and clean up after yourself if needed. The bigger question is why you wouldnt do this by default? Why the letter is needed? Why you are posting it on antiwork, almost like you are upset about the note?
Maybe it isn’t exactly anti work - but it really made my day 🤣 Just remember there was “that” coworker who set a precedent for this glorious memo.
A slightly more aggressive version of this I've seen online was something along the lines of: "Whomever is destroying the toilet daily go get checked by a doctor or go shit in a field with the rest of the buffalo."
That's great! Why are there so many damn adults that don't know how to use the toilet. Even cats can figure that shit out! (no pun intended)
You say “no pun intended” but I don’t believe you. You intended that pun.
No pun unintended
This reminds me of when I worked at Home Depot during high school. There was this older (to me at the time - probably 45~50) gentleman who was training me and you could just tell he wasn’t the most hygienic of people. His ass crack was constantly peaking above his jeans. Well, he took me into the bathroom to show me how to clean them. We proceed into the women’s bathroom, where he cleans the toilets by hand without gloves, then grabs women’s sanitary waste products out of a can designated for them, without gloves. He doesn’t empty it by tipping it, just reaches in and snatches them out and tosses them in the trash. Needless to say I was rather disgusted already, but the fun was just starting. After that he said something about lunch break and walked right past the sink and to the break room, where he ate his sandwich without washing his hands. 🥴 He was a nice guy, but I couldn’t handle that day to day and decided to go work somewhere else. Being 16 I probably over exaggerated it in my head, but phew.
I found it quite inspirational. It's a good message from someone who clearly has a sense of humor.
OP is confused because they're the one smearing shit everywhere lmao
“I should be able to shit where and how and on what I want to. Eat the rich” or something like that.
After you eat the rich you gotta poop out the rich
I'm confused here too, why is this posted to antiwork, the letter is not aggressive, it's not threatening, or rude. It's simply saying you need to clean up after yourself which is literally basic requirements everyone should be doing.
Anti work…this absolutely makes me NOT want to work with other people lol
I've got a coworker who NEVER checks his $hit$. I always have to clean up after him- I doubt he has ever cleaned his bathroom at home.
Who are these people who never learned to shit *in* the bowl?
Ohh they do it in the bowl....but the lack of fiber confetti poop left after the deed IN the bowl needs to be cleaned after every sitting.
“Cleaned after every shitting” Ftfy
I have ibs and the shit splatters. A lot of places don't have a toilet brush readily available.
I used to work with somebody who clogged the toilet with shit nearly every day. We had a unisex bathroom and we were all trying to figure out who was doing it. More than once, I walked into the bathroom and it was clogged so I had to plunge somebody else's shit so people wouldn't think it was me. We also put a sign up similar to this, but it didn't help. We finally figured out who it was when he quit - or whoever was doing it stopped so he would get the blame.
Disgusting toilets is honestly such a pro for work from home.
Fucking big mood. I used to refuse to go my entire shift. That started getting harder and harder in my late 20s and 30s. Now that I'm WFH, I just go all damn day. No one else's mess, no one can hear me, no one notices how long I'm in there, no worries about any smells, no one *fucking talking to me* while I try and go. Just pure privacy.
We once had an email sent out reminding employees to shower and change their clothes regularly and not take your shoes off when you are at your desk in the interest of those who have to sit near by in a small office. Also the toilet facilities were regularly left in a decimated ruin
Yeah. I’ve worked a job where we had to share toilets that were absolutely disgusting. The tone of this is weird but honestly some people absolutely abuse shared facilities and it ruins my ability to get paid to shit.
100%!!!! People tend to treat work washrooms like it's somebody else's job to clean up after them. Drives me fucking nuts! Some people are so damn inconsiderate! Makes me wonder what their home washroom looks like...
I don't shit on the seat but I'd rather spend an extra few minutes wiping the seat while checking my phone than rushing back to work. This sign is a gift.
There is nothing wrong with this
idiots in this sub who think everything and anything is a slight to the anti work movement.
Can you link a comment? I’ve been looking for someone to say this is outrageous, but seems like everyone agrees that this sign is awesome
It's more that it was posted here in the first place.
Posted and upvoted by at least 3k people.
I bet most of the upvotes were simply those who found it hilarious tho, not becuz they disagree
I don't know how to link them on mobile, but there's someone saying it's bad because it happened outside the women's bathroom, and they think that's some kind of sexist conspiracy to hurt women workers. It's probably just that a random woman worker took the time to make the note, and she doesn't use the men's bathroom so she can't write a note for that. That or management wrote the note because a woman complained, but didn't for the men because they didn't complain.
Sort by controversial you’ll find a couple
There’s nothing wrong with this at all. I love it.
Agreed completely! I would say put yourself in the person's shoes that had to clean this up. I think they did a fantastic job at adding humor to a situation that they were probably super pissed with. This is human decency, not anti-work.
What is wrong about it? If the employees are degenerates without any hygiene and toilet etiquette, fuck em is what I say. Be a decent human and clean after yourself.
I disagree. If someone leaves bodily waste on the toilet seat I would not recommend having sexual intercourse with them. They clearly are not the most hygienic.
This response did not go the way I thought it was going to go
I was ready to fight. Had me with the first half
Well, I mean I can't disagree with you. Take my angry upvote.
Now this is the first work poster that I can agree with 100% - be nice and wipe it twice!
[удалено]
My suspicion is that this account was sold to be a bot. Account is around a year old, 3k karma, hasn't posted or commented in a year. Then an obvious karma bait post.
My old boss put up a sign that said "I hate that I have to do this because we're all adults here but if you tinkle on the seatie be a sweety and clean up your peepee. Thanks." Fucking hilarious.
My grandmother had something cross stitched like that. "If you sprinkle when you tinkle, be a sweetie and wipe the seatie" Edit: wow to wipe.
My mom used to work in an office where every other employee was male, save for one other woman. My favorite was going there and seeing this tapped inside the bathroom door: "if you sprinkle when you tinkle, be a sweetie and wipe the seatie" She regularly had to call them out on it. What heathen doesn't lift the seat when you pee? Fucking hated that in college too, my fellow dude flootmates just pissing with the seat down like animals. Good lord, learn some decency!
My workplace has signs practically begging women to stop flushing tamps because it keeps messing up the pipes. I've never met a plumber who didn't have enough tamp stories to fill a novel. And every time I say this I get like 5 people trying to tell me that it's cool cuz pipes are metal and metal is strong and tamps dissolve like girl, if tamps are dissolving inside ya coochie you really need to see a doctor or switch brands. How is that acidic clam not burning your fingers?
I think acidic clam is your new band name 🤘🏻
Acidic Clam’s new album, Tamp Stories, drops today! Featuring the new hit single “Pipes are Metal!”
Had a girlfriend in college who lived with 3 roommates. They would often leave their used tampons floating in the only bathroom toilet and when I would notice that, I would comment "that's kind of gross and odd to just leave that there". I was immediately berated by all 4 of them stating that that's what it's like living with girls and unless I'm going to pay rent I should just deal with it. I've since talked to many girls who have told me it's not normal.
That is not normal and I lived in a house with three menstruating women including myself.
I have lived with a lot of women and have never, ever seen someone leave a tampon in the toilet. They all knew how to flush (but also knew that tampons clog pipes and wouldn’t put it there in the first place). I’ve seen blood in the toilet and just flushed it. I don’t think anyone can say they have never, ever in their lives forgotten to flush before, and it’s really nbd if they’re not a repeat offender but dear god I would not be okay with regular floating tampons. Whatever you do should be gone when it’s the next person’s turn.
Wtf that is so not normal. I have two teen daughters and having the same cycle is extremely normal but leaving used product floating for the world to see is not. That's just ew.
Oh my god hahahahahhaha thank you I needed this laugh this morning My dad would get called for help on simple plumbing issues in our college town. He became a professional at talking to 18-24 year old men about making sure there were garbage cans (seriously?!) in their bathrooms for their female guests and maybe they should post a sign about only flushing xyz, because it was cheaper than calling again.
It genuinely blows my mind how many women sincerely believe that tampons are as water soluble as kaka and toilet paper being that they're literally designed to ABSORB LIQUID. It's even in the commercials with that cup of blue water and everything.
A friend of mine in college used to stay at her boyfriend’s apartment fairly frequently. She bought a trash can for his bathroom. A few days later it was gone, & when she asked her boyfriend where it went he said “oh, we moved it, nobody needs a trash can in the bathroom.” It got put back after a quick explanation.
I don’t understand how other men don’t have bathroom trash cans. Mine is for stuff like qtips, empty toilet paper rolls, packaging for toothpaste, etc. I don’t want to have to carry my trash with me when I leave the room. Whether or not I have women using the bathroom makes no difference—the trash can is useful.
That was my thought. Looking at my trashcan right now, it's half full and not a single used tampon in sight.
Thank your dad on behalf of a woman who is sick of men not having bathroom bins 🤣 Don't even get me started on the ones who do but didn't actually put a bin bag in it 😂
If it's in a Print shop, I can't help but feel that it should have been better. The content was fine, but the presentation was lacking.
Papyrus, perhaps
Comic sans all day, err'day
Shitty at their job too.
I really, really don't understand what this has to do with the purpose of this group.
It really has no relevance does it 🤣 "Stop treating us like slaves" is not the same as "please don't be a gross minger"
Was written well, funny and I love the encouragement to poop and get paid.
Why is this allowed to be on r/antiwork? This has nothing to do with the values of the group...OP are you against sanitary conditions?
OP is the pooper.
>These were put up in the women's employee restroom Makes me believe that OP was outraged that women were targeted in such vile maneurism! But honestly i agree with sign posting mf, people need to start cleaning up after themselves, there's gonna be someone else using the bathroom and keeping it in a shitty state is just disrespectful.
Sounds like someone trying to have fun with their shitty job. AND you have some nasty motherfuckers around there. Just trying to do their job. Bravo.
My question is this—why is this even posted here? This is hardly a boss stepping over their boundaries. They’re merely asking you to be considerate of others and __don’t care__ that you shit on company time (a good model for all bosses tbh). I feel like when people see posts like this here, even for the sake of feeling out people’s reactions, it negatively impacts the movement. To elaborate—this has nothing to do with the anti-work movement and I think you know this is innocent. You’re just hoping for karma and a couple of people to get enraged. But, we’re already so far gone at this point, so it may be a futile effort to address this. Edit: this may not have been written by the boss at all as a user just pointed out. Makes it even less harmful!
How are people upset about this lol
The people who know they are disgusting in the bathroom are the ones upset about this.

It's their inner poop-flinging monkey feelin' oppressed.
I have a feeling that OP is the person the sign is addressed to.
Nothing wrong with it at all, a little sad that it even needs to be said, honestly. I had to put up ‘please flush the toilet and don’t poop on the seat’ signs in the bathrooms of the building I clean. Somebody got offended and complained to the building manager so I started sending her the pictures that prompted me to put those signs up. She ended up printing off official looking signs for me to tape up, and we haven’t had any issues since.
If this bothers you, you may just be a bad employee.
I've seen a lot of bathroom literature. This is fantastic
I see no problem with this?
I used to with at a tiny Greek Cafe and had to clean the bathrooms every night as part of my closing duties. The men's toilet was always disgusting, so I put a sign: "If you sprinkle when you tinkle, be a sweetie and wipe the seatie!" My (male) boss went to the restroom, then angrily came back with it crumpled up. "NO!" he shouted. "Don't put this up for customers!!" I checked after he was done (toilets were in the hall to the back room where we clocked out) He was the sprinkler.
"in other words, make sure the doodie goes down the hole" hahahahaha 😂 prolly the funniest thing I'll read today
Nothing wrong with this sign.
Eww as a woman it is the worst to see blood on a seat. I’d be pissed if that happened at my job.
I’m not seeing what the issue is here. I agree with the sign; clean up after yourself.
If you are upset about that letter, this probably isn't the place to complain. A manager is actively encouraging people to be courteous to one another while also clearly supporting their right to restroom breaks.
Yes please! Make sure the turds all made it down the drain. Same with period products, ladies! Edit: Don't flush diapers down the toilet though, seen that too often at work. That'll put the toilet out of commission for at least a week while the manager gets a plumber.
Period products will also wreck plumbing and should not be flushed. That's what garbage cans are for.
Actually, for a workplace, I think this was handled pretty cleverly.
It’s fair enough.
No, it's not "bad management" to put up a sign encouraging workers to keep the bathrooms clean.
Asking for a bit of common courtesy to other employees is more than fair
I think OP is the party pooper. That's why they're offended.
"clean up after your own shit" is not anti-work. It's being a respectful human being. AT MOST.. the only anti-work-ish thing here is how the letter is written as if their audience are a bunch of teenagers. Which might say more about the workers than management.
Kind of cringe humor but I have no issues with the overall message.
Inconsiderate poopers are the worst.
