Having cleaned pub loos in the past I can assure you all that when it comes to disgustingness girls far outrank boys.

Kerrymum, we don't have the paper loo seat covers here because THEY COST TOO MUCH MONEY and our health as toilet users doesn't matter when there is profit involved!

I work in a hospital and in our outpatients department there is a SINGLE toilet between 50 members of staff, men AND women, which opens straight out into a corridor.

So, not only can you not get in it most of the time, you can't relax long enough for a no. 2 (which was probably hospital management's intention ) as there's always someone hovering outside, but it is usually in a DISGUSTING state and more often than not either has (a) no loo roll, or (b) a loo roll sat on top of the sanitary bin (very hygienic), or (c) no soap or paper towels.

Domestic Services only clean at night, so you can go all day like that, and apparently for 'health and safety reasons' they are not allowed to clean bodily fluids, so if there is a puddle of pee on the floor (has been before) or any shit, one of the nurses has to clean it up. (That also applies up on the wards, by the way, and includes blood and vomit).

Then we have to go and poke patients in the privates. Well, I don't personally, but you know what I mean. Hurrah for the Health Service.

(I think I need to think about my current propensity to either start or reply to poo related threads )

I suspect the pee on the seat was because whoever was there last actually straddled and peed because she couldn't bear to sit down on a public loo seat. Should have wiped it clean though! yuk!

The toilet that we have to use at work actually spurts out water so when you finish it looks like you have pissed on the seat when youhavent. Bloody annoying.
