Am I the only one who does this?! Feel massively judged by my friends

[Hatsoff92]

Girly dinner this week - not the classiest of conversations but it was somehow brought up that I use the loo at work for all ‘eventualities’.

They were horrified and said it’s strictly wee only for them.

Am I really that unusual?!

This is one of the situations where it’s actually an advantage to be a wheelchair user. Disabled loos are usually completely separate to the main toilets. Not nasty exposed cubicles for me, I poo as I please!!

I knew a bowel surgeon socially for a while. They frequently said that their best advice to anyone is that you should always go when you can, regardless of anything else.

‘pushing cloth’ - OMG! That’s the funniest thing I’ve read for a long time. I’m in agreement about going at work, if you need to go, why wouldn’t you, especially if you’re getting paid?

This has been done to death on MN.

Is MN a sarcasm free zone? How are so many people confused by jokes?

What’s that got to do with it?

reminds me of this classic

I'm not a fan of pooing at work or anywhere public for that matter, if I can absolutely avoid it.

But choosing a wooded area over pooing at work is WILD!

What they mean is they have not needed a bowel movement during working hours. It's common for people to go in the mornings on waking and then not need it again all day.

If they actually urgently needed a shit at 9.30am having arrived at work at 9, I cannot perceive them holding it in till they leave at five thirty and commute home? If they genuinely do such things they'll end up so severely constipated it could be life threatening!

If you gotta go, you gotta go. Nobody 'likes' crapping at work or in public toilets, but needs must.

Boss makes a dollar, I make a dime / That's why I poop on the company's time...

But wouldn't there be people offended by the use of a sarcasm flag, probably the same who were 'offended' by the late, much lamented laughing emoji?

I suspect most of them shit in work but didn't want to admit to it.

In my experience there are two types of people. People who have to manage their bowels when the moment requires, and those who don't need to, or often, can only do so under the correct set of circumstances.

Both groups find the others impossible to understand, and in my experience the latter group (of whom I am one) often feel superior to the former group.

I suspect that in reality, the former group will experience better overall bowel health long term, so they may have the last laugh.

After an operation I was given Tramadol and Cocodamol pain killers. I had to stop taking them after a couple of days as I felt so bunged up I was feeling sick. A work colleague once told me that she had IBS-D and would rather have that than constipation.

I poo quite a bit, sometimes two or three times in a day depending what I may have eaten but as the saying goes, better out than in, although I am one of those people who only really likes to poo at home.

As a card carrying anti-capitalist, I consider it my moral duty to spend as much work time pooing as possible.

I hated it, but sometimes you have to.

But if you don’t poo when you need to, you run the risk of smelly gaseous emissions.. And then your colleagues will give you dirty looks !!

Never fails to amaze me how any mention of toileting immediately must mean a poo troll is in our midst. There are some really juvenile people on MN.

WHAT?
You go & do a wild shit instead of in the toilet? That’s messed up! What do you do with it? Pop it in your handbag? Doggy poo bags? Cover it in leaves?
mind boggles!!

“Pushing cloth” 😂😂
we say “turtling”

I think it's called a shy bowel, when you don't get the urge in public toilets, only in private

I don't think most people do feel the same

Sadly, you're very wrong. Vomiting feces is caused by intestinal blockages, or very severe constipation.

Thank you. Pooh is a bear FFS.

Paid for poo - absolutely!!!!
