Office Pranks, Office Humor, and Office Stories - One Crazy Office

When it comes to using the bathroom at the office a very strict etiquette needs to be followed but rarely is. Here are a few of some very important DON’TS when using the restroom at work. (This may be more for the fellas)

1. If there are 6 urinals and all are empty but the corner one DO NOT go right next to the only other person using the urinal. Not being homophobic, but the last thing most guys want to smell or see is another guy when they are in the can. Especially when dealing with people who they work with in the office. Plus there are 5 other empty urinals that are more than usable.
2. DO NOT attempt to start up a conversation work or otherwise with someone who is in the bathroom unless you enter the bathroom together, or both acknowledge each other at the sink. Again the last thing I want to hear is another guy asking me about some stupid office question while I am relieving myself. This might be my only time during the day that I get a reprieve from the office during the day, and you are ruining my inner sanctum.
3. It is NOT OK to urinate on someone else’s shoes. This has not happened to me, but I have heard stories of people usually offenders of rule #1 that can not control their stream and end up all over the place.
4. CLEAN UP after yourself. When using a public toilet most people realize there is going to be some inconvenience such as wiping a dirty toilet, but when you are in a place with your co workers the last thing they want to do is have to clean up your misfires all over the toilet seat so they can use it.

These are just a few rules that every office should make part of their office bathroom policy when it comes to the workplace. I do encourage though when you see people using the urinal and you are leaving to kick them more into the stall, as they can not chase after you. Plus it’s ok if they piss on their own shoes.
