My colleague apparently has never done a poo or even farted while at work.

AIBU to think she's either lying or has had a really sore tummy for the past 8 years?

Wow, is she really anally retentive as well? Does she label her stapler and count the Post-It Notes?

I try not to poo at work but sometimes I just have to. I did go through a very lucky phase a few years when I worked in an office where I finished at 5.30 but everyone else left at 5 or 5.15.. My body clock somehow set itself so that I always needed to go pretty much bang on 5.30, just after everyone else had gone home, so I was able to go to the (very nice) staff toilets and poo in peace and quiet.

Those were the days...

Did she tell you this off her own bat, or did you ask? Conversations in your office must be positively scintillating

Hell yeah I poo at work. When no-one else is in the office, I even take a book.

Those who say all pooers leave skidders in the pan - not true, all you have to do is pop a bit of paper in the pan before you go (also mutes plopping sounds). Also our loos have toilet brushes if it gets messy.

In my old job one of the loos even had a window so you could poo without leaving a stench, although if you came out of that cubicle everyone knows you pooed. But you know, who cares, we all poo!

I don't understand how people feel the need to poo but then avoid pooing for the next 5 hours until they get home from work. How does that even work?

"Who cares, we all poo" Exactly.

It can't be good for you to hold it in surely.

Matches don't cover the smell.

Just smells like burnt poo IMO.

DP said one of the first things he loved about me was when I let rip a massive fart in his presence .... my farts depend heavily on whether I've eaten the wrong things (bread being the worst) and as I have mentioned on the piles thread, I have ibs which sometimes means when I have to poo, I have to! I have known several people who only poo once a week

That is my idea of bum hell

I you suffer from IBS then you will poo wherever the nearest toilet is!

I never poo'd at work, only farting was the odd slippage after a wee. I also can't poo if oh is home.

Damnautocorrect I also can't poo if oh is home.

That is very odd. I can understand not in front of him (as it's not a spectator sport, although some folk don't mind) but not when he's in the house?

How long have you been living together? And what do you do if you feel the need in the evening . . . and he's going to be there for another 12 hours?

My workmate that I shared an office with about 15 years ago and I used to almost always go at the same time and have a natter while shitting.

She remains one of my best friends.

I poop at work but don't fart usually. When I was pregnant I had surprise farts that always stank. I used to hope that people thought they belonged to the older chap who sat next to me.

I used to have an app that you entered your salary into and clicked it when you went for a shit at work. When you got back to your desk it would tell you how much you'd earned while pooping!

I don't do either at work, dh finds it astounding that anyone can go a whole day without doing either!!

It is very bad to hold on poos when you need to go and it definitely causes problems with constipation.

Toilets are made to handle pop and wee and I have no problem using them for their intended purpose.

If I need to fart, I need to fart, although I do try to make sure no one is within whiffing distance.

No, the colleague in question doesn't have a DH

I do label my stapler though!

I rarely if ever pooed when I was working. I guess everyone farts but there are ways of not trumpeting one. One problem is I am claustrophobic and would spend any time in a loo not my own, wondering how I could get out of the cubicle if the lock jammed. Could I squeeze under the door, or climb up and over by balancing on hinges and handles and locks etc. Fortunately never happened.

As a child I would never even do a wee if out with my family for the day. I was absolutely desperate by the time we got home and would be like a bullet out of the car and up the stairs.

i want that app bump!! i love to poo at work, getting paid to shit! great :)

I do as many poos as possibly at work. Saves on toilet tissue at home!

Don't know why people are so embarrassed about it. Everyone shits. What's new?

Does she keep a diary? Honestly, who bothers to remember the location of every poo and fart for eight whole years? Does she have nothing else to think about?

I don't like to poo at work. I have a couple of times when I've really needed to but that's it. If I need to fart I go to the ladies and do it rather than at my desk.

That's just me though. I don't poo at other people's houses (except my parents ) either or in public toilets. My body just doesn't allow it!

This thread has had me nearly crying with laughter , it is so funny.

I would poo at work as I do feel that if you need to go, you should go.

I usually poo in the morning before I go to work so don't usually have the need to but have done before.

My problem is that where I work, staff and students alike have to use the same toilets so it is a rare occasion when no one is in them.

Also, in my job I don't very often have the time to have a wee let alone a shit.

And at home I am quite happy to have a poo with the bathroom door unlocked and if DH wanders in so be it.

My bowels are total slags, they will poo in anyone's toilet.

I don't understand the concept of being picky about what toilets you poo in. They are all the same.

Good grief, there has been a lot of pooh threads on here recently.

And it's supposed to be males that are anal!
