Workmen who aren’t toilet trained

I can complain about them right?
Not flushed and no toilet paper

... and I think he did it on purpose to piss me off

I’ve told the boss he needs to toilet train his workers

Yuck, I had a kitchen fitter once who crapped in my only toilet, didn't flush and turned the water off before I discovered it. Fucking bastard. That "gift" stayed there for hours until he turned the water back on. I was too young and embarrassed to say anything at the time but I'm older and wiser now.

Perhaps he did flush and it took the paper but your loo doesn't have a very good flush?

CurtainsOpen · 21/05/2019 10:24

Ooh been a while since we've had one of these!

I had an electrician dispose of grit and plaster down the toilet (he was drilling into the walls).

I mean, for FUCK’S sake. Lazy twat. Of course plaster etc doesn’t flush and welded itself to the bottom of the pan.

Lucky got him we were about to rip the bathroom out. I don’t know what I would have done otherwise.

I had one who pissed all round the toilet, onto the floor. Filthy bastard.

NannyRed · 21/05/2019 18:31

I had a new bathroom fitted by a plumber who left the door open when he took a piss. Unfortunately I went upstairs for something from my bedroom and caught him full flow!

happyhillock · 21/05/2019 18:35

I had a gas engineer in, he went to the loo and left you know what on the loo seatConfused i phoned his boss i was furious

ThorosOfMyr · 21/05/2019 18:45

Oh yes. I had some here working in the garden for a few days - but of landscaping and turfing. One of the workers asked on day one to use my toilet and I always say yes (had many builders etc work in my house before) but my god! It was utter carnage. Literally shit all over the bowl and pissed over the rim and all over the floor. Sad

I honestly felt like crying as I cleaned it up. I'm sure it was a two fingers to me. And I'm always an accommodating client - tea, biscuits etc. Arsehole.

It was so disgusting that for days 2 and 3 I deliberately left the house until they'd gone home so they couldn't use the toilet.

kalinkafoxtrot45 · 21/05/2019 18:48

I’d be hauling the dirty fuckers back in to clean it up themselves! In my best fishwife voice! As I once did to a manky house guest.

As I once did to a manky house guest.

That you would do that is quite something.

Cherrysoup · 21/05/2019 19:08

I would definitely get the workman back to clean up if I saw that and he was still working. That’s fucking disgusting!

molemonkey · 21/05/2019 19:23

I own a deli/sandwich shop and have an outside toilet with hand sink, airfresher always kept clean.
But a lot of workmen use the shop and ask to use the toilet and omg they piss all over the floor and seat.
Dont flush, and only yesterday was I scrubbing crap from some dirty git.
I now have to check once someone has been in incase a customer who knows how to use a toilet correctly wants to use it!

kalinkafoxtrot45 · 21/05/2019 22:33

headinhands Why so? Damned if I’m scrubbing up after a grown man in perfectly good health.

I had this, and I asked the team leader to clean it (he did!)

DorothyZbornak · 22/05/2019 00:29

I once caught a workman pissing up against my wall in the my back garden. This was a man in his 40s.
The real irony of it is that he was a fucking plumber!!!

ReggaetonLente · 22/05/2019 00:43

A delivery driver asked to use the loo the other day and against my better judgement I said yes. Stinking radioactive yellow piss all over the seat and floor, and pubes on the seat too. Why? How? It would take a concerted effort for me to leave it in that state. I maybe get behaving like that in a public loo where there's some anonymity but in someone's home where they're going to know it was you? Vile.

NorthernSpirit · 22/05/2019 00:55

Dirty bastard.

I’m presuming he wasn’t potty trained when young?

God knows what state his own house is in (maybe someone cleans his shit up after him)?

Totally unacceptable for a grown adult.

KissUntilTheyDieOfRabies · 22/05/2019 01:03

Just to lighten the mood a bit, I had a plumber come out to me and I didn't know the water was off at the point when I had to leave a bum sausage and luckily I was able to blame the kids but I've not made that mistake again.

I went nuclear this week, because between the kids and my OH and our "if it's yellow let it mellow" rule, none of them are flushing (and the smell suggests there is pee outside of the loo somewhere) and it reeks like a seaside urinal, midsummer. You know the smell. I've been going in, flushing, using bleach, flushing again, leaving the window open and using the extractor fan.

I use the en suite. Thinking of sticking a notice outside it saying "for the sole use of KissUntilTheyDieOfRabies" seeing as I'm the only one who cleans either bathroom.

Had I seen it before they left he'd have been cleaning it himself with his tongue
