Delivery driver just had a dump at my house!

AIBU? I've just had some furniture delivered and the first thing the guy said was, 'Can I use your loo?' I didn't want him to but felt that I couldn't refuse so I reluctantly said yes. He was in there for ages. He's had a smelly dump. It fucking stinks. I could have cried. He then bought the furniture in and I've just had to go and clean the toilet. I'm disgusted.

Boo OP I assume did not think the delivery driver would abuse the situation. He did. You mess you leave it clean and nice and nice for the next person. By the way this is someone's personal space and home. Seems to be plenty of people happy to clean up after others so let those enjoy that task go ahead. We also had this with carers and an immune deficient family member so unfair to do that to really frail people where hygiene is critical and they have to wait for someone to clean it for them. So OP say no. You could always regale the recent tale and for that reason it is No.

I work in a job where we are out on the road all day. We are actually told to use customer loo's rather than stop at public ones as it saves time.
It's not one of the rules I follow, but I totally sympathise with the bloke.

missF3dup · 02/11/2018 22:50

Oh my This is hilarious 😂 funniest thread I have read in ages.
Seriously though poor bloke, poor you with random poop.
Love the replies. So sorry 😂😂

WitsEnd2018 · 02/11/2018 22:51

He wasn't desperate ( well he didn't look it) he had a smelly crap in my lovely loo and then sat in his van and ate his lunch. I think he timed it perfectly actually. I had to skip my lunch though because I felt too ill to eat after having to scrub my stinking, skid marked toilet.

Poor bloke? - don't think so! He was shameless. Poor me - yes absolutely!

the real question is will the smell be gone by xmas. Who knows

LaurieMarlow · 02/11/2018 22:54

Just think OP, if you'd invested a quid in a lovely loo brush you could have saved yourself all this heartbreak.

PurpleAndTurquoise · 02/11/2018 22:55

Maybe he had IBS.

OhEctoplasmOnIt · 02/11/2018 22:56

I have to say, if someone asked if they could use my toilet I'd say no! I'm home alone with 3 toddlers and would be totally uncomfortable with it. I'd have to say someone was in the loo Grin

WitsEnd2018 · 02/11/2018 22:57

I will never get a loo brush, ugh. I had a bottle of bleach beside the loo which he ignored, so doubt he'd have bothered with the effort of giving the toilet a de skid with a brush.

I’d be pretty miffed to be fair. My husband works a job where he can be at a customers house for twelve hours working, he doesn’t use their loo. He does sometimes get caught short and if he needs to do a big stinky one he goes in the back of his van with a bin bag over a bucket. Not ideal or nice for him but respectful to his customers, he wouldn’t dream of stinking out their bathroom.

Boohissmiss · 02/11/2018 22:58

I’m sorry a smell put you off your lunch it’s amazing how doctors , nurses and everyone working in care homes ever actually eat . Smh

Dandeeli · 02/11/2018 23:01

I haven’t read the whole thread but I HATE this. I get that a shit is a natural bodily function blah blah but that doesn’t mean I don’t then disinfect the ENTiRE bathroom - handles and all - afterwards. They always shit in my toilet too, without fail.

LaurieMarlow · 02/11/2018 23:01

You're coming across as a bit deranged my love.

had a bottle of bleach beside the loo which he ignored, so doubt he'd have bothered with the effort of giving the toilet a de skid with a brush.

I've never heard of people being expected to bleach other people's loos with their bare hands before I came on mumsnet.

Thankfully I have civilised, decent friends who provide the use of their loo and a loo brush without drama.

OhEctoplasmOnIt · 02/11/2018 23:01

Doctors and nurses who get paid for it.

PunkrockerGirl59 · 02/11/2018 23:01

Oh get away Op, you're just playing to the audience now Grin
Nobody died. Your toilet is still in tact.
You, however, need to get a grip and buy a fucking toilet brush

LaurieMarlow · 02/11/2018 23:03

He does sometimes get caught short and if he needs to do a big stinky one he goes in the back of his van with a bin bag over a bucket

And this is supposed to be a better option than simply using someone else's loo? Envy

I've heard it all now.

TeddybearBaby · 02/11/2018 23:03

Shitting in your van = respect 🤔. Beyond grim.

Give me strength!!

Boohissmiss · 02/11/2018 23:03

Ah ok so he should have left her money for the smell that makes sense

Cressida89 · 02/11/2018 23:14

How do you use bleach "with your bare hands"?? You pour it out of the bottle into the loo Hmm

Cressida89 · 02/11/2018 23:18

Tbh until I came on MN I didn't realise people thought loo brushes were for smearing fresh shit round the toilet bowl

I always thought they were for routine cleaning.

I won't have one for various reasons but mainly because I really don't want people smearing shit about the place with it and then putting it on display by the loo.

Squirt of bleach on a wodge of toilet roll to easily wipe any above-water marks. Flush. Below-water marks will dissolve in bleach anyway. No need for a rancid brush.

Boohissmiss · 02/11/2018 23:19

Then how do you scrub it Cressida ? If nothing is available just pouring bleach down won’t get rid of skid marks.

LaurieMarlow · 02/11/2018 23:22

You pour it out of the bottle into the loo

But that alone isn't going to get rid of skid marks. The OP said she had to scrub it.

GabsAlot · 02/11/2018 23:23

you couldnt eat yor lunch? sorry ihad to stop there its hilarious

at least the dd had his lunch though eh!

Cressida89 · 02/11/2018 23:30

Why would it need scrubbing if you immediately wipe away marks with bleach and loo roll?

I wouldn't be averse to scrubbing with a toilet brush as part of a cleaning regime. But I wouldn't leave that brush out for people to smear into shit...
