AIBU to not want a workman to poo in my toilet?

Earlier today I was having my boiler serviced and two men came to do it.

The older man said 'can I use your toilet' , I said 'yes of course' and directed him to the bathroom. Thinking he just needed to pass water

But he had a poo in it! He was in there a good 10 minutes and has colleague was looking embarressed as we chatted.

It stank ! Really stank ...why do people think it's ok to poo in someone elses house

Would it be unreasonable to refuse workmen toilet access in future [hshock]

I'm using the term workmen because I don't know what else to call them

I would never in a million years have thought it was impolite to use a toilet for the purpose it was built for, e.g., piss and poo. Just when I thought I had British society pretty much worked out, it surprises me again.

For years I've been offering 'workmen' a cup of tea when they came in the door and treated them with politeness and respect. They must have thought me such a weirdo!

You are taking the piss about phoning him, surely?

LadyClariceCannockMonty · 17/10/2011 11:40

Yeah, I've just read the thread properly Blush and realised it must be a wind-up.

We were travelling in the Lake District and I was dying for a wee. No hotels/restaurants nearby, I needed it asap.

Cue.. trailer park! I dashed out the car and ran toward a trailer that had it's door open, knocked and (with a charming smile) asked if I could use their loo. They said 'of course!' I was only 2 mins and ever so thankful... would have peed in the car otherwise.

Hubby wasn't too happy I was going into a stranger's trailer... but he wasn't too keen on me weeing in the car either [hgrin]

Okay....I've just read up to the point where you ACTUALLY PHONED the "workman" OP. Seriously? I don't believe you now. Some people (like me) really do have a problem with people pooing in toilets - the smells etc...but I think you're taking the piss out of a real problem now!!

BimboNo5 · 17/10/2011 12:21

She's talking bullshit, fucking idiot. engages no further

BreeVanDerTramp · 17/10/2011 12:23

OP you are clearly talking shit, but can I just ask for the past 3 days have you been for a shit - I can't see when you would have had the time as you have been answering replies on here round the clock - last night 11 pm, 2 am, 5 am - when do you sleep?

MrBloomsNursery · 17/10/2011 12:24

No, I think she started off serious, and then began feeling embarrassed from all the backlash, so is fabricating a tall tale...weirdo.

MrBloomsNursery · 17/10/2011 12:26

I think she wrote that other thread about the workman pooing in a client's toilet too.

Have you honestly really rang the poor bloke. Surely you havent. Can you retell the conversation you had with him and how you came to actually ask him about the poo.

I have enjoyed this thread though. Tis funny, strange, wierd and yes you are CRAZY CREAMOLA Grin
