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.

What I don't understand is why everyone else's poo smells so much worse than OPs who start threads like this. Exactly. Why are 'tradesmen's' shits so much more stinky than other people's? Answer: They're not.

FredFlinstoneMadeOfBones · 02/11/2018 13:48

Ok he may not have been able to help needing a shit but leaving the toilet dirty is not on.

How was he meant to clean it with no toilet brush?

Oirobnooo · 02/11/2018 13:48

Topseyt ...sorry!

BrokenWing · 02/11/2018 13:48

I had a young female colleague in work come up to my desk and say she'd just come out of the toilet and someone must have had a poo before her as it was stinking and why would they do that?

After the initial incredulous replies of that's what a toilet is for, does her shit smell of roses and sometimes people get caught short discussion, she continued to be adamant that noone should shit in a shared toilet other people use to pee (sort their hair, make personal calls) in and could smell.

All I could do at that point was to tell her to piss off and stop being such a snowflake. I am finding it harder and harder as I get older to tolerate snowflake behaviour.

I think it’s rude not to use toilet cleaner, bog brush and air freshener not to clean up after yourself if these items have been left easily seen and available in the toilet. But otherwise OP, go to your doctor you don’t sound well.

I just needed to offload.

Pun intended?

Mia1415 · 02/11/2018 13:49

OP - I mean this in the nicest possible way, but your reaction to this and perspective on hygiene and toilets really isn't normal.

ilovesooty · 02/11/2018 13:50

I just needed to offload

So did he. Grin

GreedyBastard · 02/11/2018 13:50

Your shit must smell of roses? Hmm

Its a toilet thats what they are designed for you know to shit in!

Getting your marigolds on was a tad dramatic wasn't it but you sound overly dramatic anyway. A good glug of bleach around the rim and on and any skids lid down leave for a while then flush would have sorted it out.

GreatDuckCookery6211 · 02/11/2018 13:50

I think you're on the wind up here OP.

Oirobnooo · 02/11/2018 13:50

Friends and family are welcome to poo at my house but not randoms

You should get that embroidered on a doormat

Thisnamechanger I love you. That's my Christmas shopping sorted and it's still only the first week of November!

Delivery charge refund? On what grounds? He delivered your item, did he not?

Hysterical

ilovesooty · 02/11/2018 13:51

Snap Bertram

Pursefirst · 02/11/2018 13:51

I bet he flushed with the lid up too...

GucciKnickers · 02/11/2018 13:51

I'm with you op. Delivery drivers really shouldn't go for a dump in client's homes. I wouldn't be outraged or nearly cry but I would think it was grim and what a cf.

'Can you shit on command like? Must be nice'

People would be doing dumps in the gutter walking down the street if they didn't have some kind of control.

mintyfresh00 · 02/11/2018 13:51

Just think of all the little poo particles which now live on your walls and ceiling from where they were flung all around you bathroom when he flushed... GrinGrin

Topseyt · 02/11/2018 13:51

Get a plaque put up outside your front door saying "No Pooing in this House Except for Friends and Family".

You really are being daft. And hilarious too.

Nesssie · 02/11/2018 13:52

Friends and family are welcome to poo at my house but not randoms - then you should have said no....

If you don't have a loo brush how was he suppose to clean it?

Also, this reaction is way over the top for the situation.

WitsEnd2018 · 02/11/2018 13:52

I do have a lot of issues with hygiene type stuff which I think doesn't bother other people and I do get upset when things like this happen.

I can't bear to listen to people sniffing if they have a cold ( just blow your nose!), long straggly fingernails freak me out, BO, coughing & sneezing without hand over mouth.....I find a lot of people quite revolting!

Chocolatecoffeeaddict · 02/11/2018 13:52

The smell will eventually go, it's not worth getting stressed about, although I agree that he shouldn't have done it. Smelling out a stranger's house like that is rude. It would be another story if he was a builder and in your house for a longer length of time, but I'm sure a delivery driver could have gone to a public toilet.

Dahlietta · 02/11/2018 13:53

Took a dump in my house and then he had his sandwiches.

Love this! Cold, calculating bastard. Grin

PhilomenaButterfly · 02/11/2018 13:53

derxa tbf, DH used to be a tradesman, and the only person whose shits smell worse are DS2's.

IAmNotLikeThem · 02/11/2018 13:54

Delivery driver probably thought your home hygiene was not up to his standards, have you considered that OP? Probably thought your taste in furniture was tacky also.
