WHAT DO YOU THINK of people who use cellphones in public restrooms?

[jswordy]

To me, that is the lowest of the low...that they cannot "wait until they eliminate."

Or are they so dense...so stupid...so ignorant...that they do not know that the person on the other end is hearing all that flushing, and knows where they are? Or that it pisses off other people in the restroom? Or the next stall? To have to hear their inane talking and farting and pooping away, all at the same time? That it violates privacy?

1. I always flush whatever's nearby when I hear someone on

a cellphone.

2. i think that swirlies should be strictly enforced in this case

[sui generis]

3. I worked with someone who had IBS AND talked to his

SO exclusively from the stall, while blowin' and goin'.

that's not love, it's mental illness.

9. YOU KNEW A COWORKER HAD IBS! I find that hilarious!

[sui generis]

11. uh, I used to sit right across from the jake

and it had very thin doors. I could tell you who had corn for lunch and how much.

7. Now THAT's funny!!!!

I find them frightening, diconcerting, discomfiting....especially if you are sitting there in a quiet facility, grunting away in relative peace, and all of a sudden you hear someone bellowing in the next stall..."Hey, howya doing?" (You talking to me????) "What's up?" (Er, I'm sitting here taking a shit...who ARE you, anyway, and why do you care????).

5. My wife talks to her mother

while sitting on the can taking care of things. When she did that with me, I would hang up. She got the hint, but still does it with her mother.

:shrug:

I don't want anyone or thing bothering me in the stall.

6. I make it REALLY obvious that they are in a bathroom.

I walked into the bathroom at my last job and I saw someone sitting in the stall. Not only were they clearly on the cell phone, but I could hear them typing, so I know they had their laptop on their lap as well. It annoyed me even further because I am in the IT department, and $5 says if there was a problem with it, Mr. Shittyfingers would have brought it right to us without wiping it down.

So I make a lot of noise. I run the faucets, I flush, sometimes I will even let out an "Ahhhhhhhh!" at the urinal. I was in one public restroom where there was someone in the stall, sitting down, literally YELLING on the phone. And not even angrily, that was just his normal volume. It got on my nerves so I yelled back, just as he was done talking, "Could you be quiet for a minute? I can't piss when there are people yelling." Much laughter ensued as I walked out.

10. The worst one is when a guy STANDS AT THE FRICKIN' URINAL

and yaks away, holding his cell with one hand and his, uh, hose with the other. I'm right next to him, and he's going, "Yeah, I'll get that paperwork out to you in just a few minutes." And the M-F actually ANSWERED THE RING standing there!

DUMBASS SUMBITCH!

[aden_nak]

12. Oh, that's when you just flush every urinal in the room.

[jswordy]

14. Heh...won't work. This happens all the time at work...

...and THEY'LL FLUSH THEIR OWN and keep yakking away like it is nothing.

I won't have a cellphone, myself. No way.

[underpants]

8. I actually ran into this two days ago

and was thinking of starting a thread.

At first I thought he was talking to me.

15. this was weird...

At my old job the management's restroom had a phone in the toilet stall next to the toilet paper dispenser. :wtf:

I could imagine being on the receiving end of a call from there...."Hey Harry, yeah, how's it going? Hey, hold on a second, will ya? Grrrrrrrrunt! Fwop! Brrraaap! Ahh!
...So, anyways, about this order here...."
