AIBU - Staff in softplay toilets

Hope this is the correct place to post.

Took DC to a soft play last week.

Took DC (4 yo) to the toilet, as we walked in a cleaner with her trolley arrived at the same time, came out of the loo and saw that another member of staff had followed them in and were having a "cuddle" (one was standing behind the other with their arms around their waist with their head on their shoulder.

I ignored it and tried to hurry up DC but nothing is slower than a four year old who wants to try every soap dispenser and hand drier!

What annoyed me was it was clear they were getting impatient waiting for us to leave, looking at us and rolling their eyes and a big sigh etc.

Am I being a terrible prude thinking it was a bit inappropriate, I always thought I was open minded (and not exactly Snow White in youth 😉) but it seemed a bit strange in soft play centre?

Or do I need to get a grip and leave the star crossed lovers in peace - they weren't hurting anyone really?

Not hurting anybody indeed, but, they were at work, and thus should have been working, not cuddling. It's inappropriate for that reason. And huffing and puffing and rolling their eyes at you, when you were using the room for its intended purpose was completely unnecessary!

I would have taken as long as possible just to piss them off. There’s a time and a place and the soft play toilets are not it…
