Long time lurker, first time poster. DH thinks it’s quite funny, and IABU, but I’m really irked by this and I want to know what others think.

We’re having a loft conversion done, and have just had the en-suite shower room installed. Plumbing functions. The carpenter was in today and had the house to himself as we were all out.

He went to the existing bathroom, fetched a toilet roll, took it up to our brand new unused en-suite toilet, and took a dump. Nothing wrong with toilet in existing bathroom, it’s perfectly nice.

what was that all about? Does he hate us? Is he just a thoughtless male? Did he want to christen our toilet for us and leave skid marks as a gift? AIBU to be pissed off and want to complain?

For goodness sake it's a toilet. It's where people shit. It's what they are there for. Anyone would think everyone on here has Aunt Bessie shits, perfect every time. They probably think theirs all smell like lavender too.

It’s not about the actual bodily function THAT EVERYONE DOES!

Is everyone being deliberately obtuse???

I’m surprised at so many of these comments.

there was a toilet available which had the loo roll and a toilet brush he could have cleaned his skid marks with.
he went out of his way fetching the loo roll to use the brand new toilet and left skid marks not bothering to fetch the toilet brush and clean up after himself.

if he had cleaned up perhaps you would have been unreasonable to be upset. (Although I don’t think it’s weird to want someone from your family to be the first to use the new toilet you just paid for).

But he left his skid marks for someone else to clean up in a private home. That’s unreasonable and I’d be passed off too

Normal considerate adults clean up after themselves. They don't act like animals leaving their "mark" wherever they've been. Can't you see the difference??
