To think there is no acceptable reason to poo in the shower at the gym (and lave it there)

Honestly I am BAFFLED why anyone would think this was okay.

My friend went in to the shower before work and there it was a lone turd :( and it's a communal shower (mens).

Were they not worried somebody would come whilst they were shitting in the shower? Hmm

Ugh, Anne where do you work!

We had a phantom poo smearer in the loos at work and the managers in that office had a spreadsheet of pc/door log ins to try to work out who was in office on the occasions it happened. They set up a secret rota of sitting at a desk overlooking the gents door and checking it after seeing someone visit.

Never caught who it was - probably was one of the managers...

AKiss I was going to link to that too - she's so fast! No way I could go that quick!

Vile, just vile.

piprabbit · 05/01/2013 12:48

There must be different sorts of people doing this though, mustn't there ?

Messy buggers who simply don't realise they've made a mess in the loo and who don't look behind themselves to check for puddles and smears.

Careless individuals who put their sanitary items down for a moment, thinking they will wrap and dispose of it in a moment but who then don't give it another thought and leave it where they dropped it.

People who are 'caught short' and are so mortified that they just leg it as fast as possible and hope no one knows it is them.

People who make a mess deliberately because they are nasty items who know that it will badly upset the person who finds/cleans up the mess and that makes them feel powerful and good about themselves.

People who hoard their body waste (wee, poo, hair clippings) because they find it frightening to dispose of it because it is part of them and letting go of it makes them vulnerable in some way (serious issues by the sound of it).

Some of these people need a quick kick up the bum and to be told to get a grip, some need prosecuting and others need a lot of support.

When I was at college there was a girl who was sticking her used sanitary pads on the underside of the hand rails of the stairs. There is also a woman where I work now who smears her menstrual blood all over the walls of the cubicle. Bleurgh!

I am the opposite, I actually cannot poo in strange loos. I have to know someone really well before I can grace their loo in any way let alone poo in it, so to be able to just dump and go in a supermarket is utterly weird to me!

Feelingood · 05/01/2013 12:58

I watched the link showing women in supermarket, from up thread. Looks like she got caught short as it wasn't err very well formed

Feelingood · 05/01/2013 12:59

Yew, if she was gonna do that she may as well have nicked some toilet roll and wiped. Dirty bitch.

GregBishopsBottomBitch · 05/01/2013 13:03

CaptChaos Same, i like the privacy of my own toilet.

Some people are so disgusting. who like handling shit, and blood, ewwwww.

WeAreEternal · 05/01/2013 13:07

From that video it looks like the woman was suffering from some kind of bowel issues (IBS possibly) the way she is able to just go like that looks as if she was unable to control it.

AKissIsNotAContract · 05/01/2013 13:44

That doesn't excuse it really. I'd sooner shit my pants and have to go home than shit on a supermarket floor for some poor cleaner to pick up.

GregBishopsBottomBitch · 05/01/2013 13:58

WeAreEternal, I have IBS attacks, once in a supermarket, i held on for an 8 mile car journey, i was driving, no way would i shit in the supermarket, if its really bad, i dont go out.

HazeltheMcWitch · 05/01/2013 14:03

OMG, that video! I don't buy that she was caught short. Surely (if there was absolutely nohwere to go), you'd just go in your pants whilst racing to nearest loo, rather than shit in a supermarket aisle??? There's something about the way they looked back (as rounding corner), that said - yip, job(by) well done . That was a premeditated dump.

We seem to have a few of these stories in my friendship and family circles... Apart from the few I posted upthread, DH just reminded me of an incident in his office a couple of years ago. The team went out for some lunchtime beers on the last working day before xmas. The team administrator got legless on a few glasses of wine and was put in a meeting room with a glass of water to sober up. About 15 minutes later they went to check up on her and she had shit on a chair and smeared it on the board table, door handle etc.

By the time this was discovered she had taken herself home. About three weeks later she handed her notice in unsurprisingly. HOWEVER, on the very same day her boss handed in his notice too - turns out they were both leaving to go to the same company and he would still be her boss!

Last year she was a contestant in a TV show (think take me out/tool academy type nonsense) and the guys were planning to sell the story if she made it big. Of course she was voted off first week.

DH works in a small specialised industry where everyone knows everyone. Pretty sure everyone now knows about shit-gate!

NC78 · 05/01/2013 15:07

So that's why people call being drunk shitfaced, is it? Hmm Grin

WeAreEternal · 05/01/2013 15:47

I wasn't at all implying that it is the kind of thing that people with digestive problems such as IBS do Greg,
I only mentioned it because looking at the video it does look as if she was 'caught short' and that the poo wasnt well formed, to steal Feelingoid's descriptions.
The way the woman just pulls down her trousers, does her buisness then pulls them back up and walks away in the space of mere seconds implies to me that she was suffering from a sudden case of diarrhoea rather than just fancying having a poo in a supermarket.

Schmoozer · 05/01/2013 15:52

A guy i knew in london used to take the tube to work,
He said that he pooed on the tube train once because he needed to go ..
He said it was an empty carriage and he changed carriage at the next stop ...

Schmoozer · 05/01/2013 15:54

My dad said he took a poo whilst walking home from the pub one night, he blames the kebab.
I saw a small child walk down a supermarket aisle pooing as they went .....
Poo,everywhere !

Schmoozer · 05/01/2013 15:55

I wonder ....
How many of us are pooing and mumsnetting at the same time ??

5madthings · 05/01/2013 15:55

Pukes in mouth and wishes i had never read this thread.

I woukd assume that people who did this have mental health issues or abuse/neglect issues from childhood.

rhondajean · 05/01/2013 16:01

Actually, my mum tells a story about my dad and her coming home on the bus (years before I was born) and him getting caught short and having explosive diarrhoea in the back of the local primary school. At night thankfully.

It is not something he has ever done before or since to my knowledge - but they do seem to find it hilarious...I'm another of the, cant go except in my own loo type.

twinklesparkles · 05/01/2013 16:10

Maybe it was a small child.. But still.. The child would have an adult with it (presumably) :(

In the local public toilets there's been a recent take over of poo graffitti ... Everytime I go in there someones rubbed shit up the walls ... Its happened at least half a dozen times in past month or so :(

I mean honestly ... Its bad enough doing a shit on the floor or something, but picking it up and rubbing words onto the wall??

Some people are just artistic I guess Grin

NinthWavingAtTheSnowman · 05/01/2013 16:17

I used to work in a record shop. There was a guy who worked in the Classical section in the basement who used to shit into carrier bags and wee into bottles, leaving it in the fire escape corridor.

Fakebook · 05/01/2013 16:23

My face reading this thread is: Confused Hmm Shock

I always get reminded of the shit scene in Slumdog Millionaire when I read threads like this. Bleugh.

Somebodysomewhere · 05/01/2013 16:49

What did you say to the employee when she came back to work Griffindor ? Or did she never come back and then hand in her notice ?

Gryffindor · 05/01/2013 16:56

She was my DH's colleague, not mine. She came back after xmas and claimed to have absolutely no memory of what happened, mumbled something about a stomach bug and generally kept her head down I think.
