AIBU to wonder if this really happened?!

I just came across this news paper story and I can’t quite believe someone would go to the news papers about this (AIBU yes ok!) but to actually go to the papers! I don’t know it doesn’t really add up and I find it hard to believe, AIBU to wonder if people just make these stories up?!

Yeah but person didn't shit IN toilet...think that's the point of the story! 🤢

But why go to the papers about it?! I don’t think it’s true but then maybe I’m just cynical “It was like someone had died” I’m mean really Hmm I’ve never known of two delivery people to come either Confused

How bizarre. I feel sorry for the reporter and photographer who went into work that morning, wondering what glamorous assignment they would be dispatched to. Would it be a glitzy London red carpet premiere? Opening of an exciting new multi-million-pound state-of-the-art shopping centre? Nope - a crapped-on carpet. "Oh, and just to confirm, we are expecting to use the 'graphic images' warning in the feature - so don't forget to take the high-microscopic lens."

What did it mean by the carpet 'carried through' from the bathroom? Did he look at the Andrex on the holder, think "Well, THAT'S not gonna cut it!" and waddle, pantless, outside the bathroom to perform the 'toddler bum-shuffle'.

Grim indeed. That's going to be fun for him, having to explain to his next employer why he left his previous job. Will he cite 'creative differences' - as in the customer was happy with her carpet with its existing pattern, whilst he thought it lacked a certain something?!

I hope the householder isn't a MNer. Considering how many need the fan and the smelling salts after they discover the delivery person or tradesman has done a safely-contained and fully-flushed away turd in their toilet, she'd be a shaking, shivering wreck for the rest of her days.

if it's true it's disgusting, not washing his hands among other things then going on to handle other peoples shopping. i feel sorry for the guy working with him too, i've had two people deliver before as one has been on training.

It said he was new and being trained, so the other member of staff will have been showing him what to do.

Oh I see, maybe it is true then was kinda hoping it was fake Envy still don’t get why someone would go to the papers about it though Confused
