to think it's rude for a workman to turn up and immediately ask to use customers toilet?

[no5hit]

Had a guy come to fix a faulty window today. This person was a complete stranger. First thing he says to me is "Can I use your loo". He then proceeds to spend 10 mins in the toilet having a stinky shit. I found this really rude. I understand he may need the toilet but there are cafes and restaurants nearby and he could have gone at work before he came to me!

Am I the only who burst out laughing at this thread? Especially at userlotsofnumbers cross face. I take it you don't have a digestive system but if you do, what comes out smells of roses?

Put some of this in your loo, OP. That'll learn the dirty bastards.

Ha ha ha re Badge rs Arse bog roll

Fucking filthy pigs, I hate shitting workmen.

We had a brand new toilet put in and the dirty bastard went and had a shit in it before he left. I was fuming

Where do you expect him to poo OP?
If he has to go, he has to go.

Oh I was wondering where today's unwanted poo would be coming from.

Most people don't use other peoples toilets or even public ones.
They wait until they get home and use their own.

Op you do know that it's actually a great privilege if someone shits in your toilet!

Also it's often called a shitter for a reason

Toilets are for shitting in so don’t be surprised when people shit in them.

Get some cheap essential oils, keep a bottle in each loo/bathroom. When a workmen or other non-family member (because family members will all know and do it anyway) asks to use the loo, smile and say 'Please shake five drops of the oil in the brown bottle onto the water before you go.

You have so much less odour to contend with and they've discovered something they can buy and take to clients' houses with them and avoid complaints from people like the OP.

I work in that type of job, and we are told to use customers toilets, rather than spend time stopping at a cafe or supermarket.

Just fuck off and do it somewhere else you foul pig
He's not the foul one.
How horrible.

Really roseblossom??
You mean when you're at work for am 8 hour day you'd never use the loo? That is the workman's situation here surely.

DH and DS are builders, many other family members "in the trade" as well.
DH and DS both try to "go" before they leave for work, but sometimes, you know, bodies aren't always predictable and they have to use the facilities at work. They are normal blokes, and are quite capable of not leaving a mess at home or at work. Just because they work with their hands doesn't make them have filthy toilet habits, FYI.

There is also a female plumber in the family, would you also refuse (or complain about) her using your toilet?

I don't know what it is about MN. So many stuck up people getting so possessive about their toilets.

Toilets are refuges of peace where women go to meditate. They should never be used for shitting in.

Most people don't use other peoples toilets or even public ones.
They wait until they get home and use their own.

Is this really a thing? Do most people really not use the loo outside the home?

If you're out all day on appointments, there aren't always public toilets available. I hate asking a client if I can use their toilet. I would only ask if I were desperate

I hope you never get caught short OP.

In fact, actually I do No one can predict their bowel movements for the day ahead, you are being really rude and unreasonable.

he could have gone at work before he came to me!

Eh, he is at work when he's at yours, you are work - bit of a piece of work judging by your frothing and angsting over some bloke having a shit.

Oddly for a site that brings up SN regularly (which is good - usually), I've never seen anyone say "what if he has bowel issues?" or similar. But even if he didn't, it's still not unreasonable for him to need to use the bathroom. It's a basic human need.
It's a toilet, unless you have some very strange artistic installation it's for using. Get over yourself.

A man dares to shit in a toilet!! Whatever next

Wee if fine but not a n.o. 2 imo. Go at home

I agree Julie. Toilets are for hiding from naggy 2 year olds, or simply for escaping the pressures of modern life for a while.

Come to think of it, I haven't pooped since 1989 when I was a nipper. Once I grew out of nappies I did the ladylike thing and just stopped taking a dump altogether. I was brought up, not dragged up.

YABU and precious as shit
