    The toilet break was described as “urgent”.

    I’m surprised that they don’t have some contingency plan for this sort of thing. You know, like radio ahead and have a substitute conductor waiting at the next station. Because shit happens.

    Maybe they do have a contingency plan and it failed.

      It’s incredible how seemingly no business of any kind seems to understand this.

      Skeleton crews with no backup plans are seemingly just fine for all of them. I imagine because the cost of retaining extra staff to prevent problems is higher than simply “hoping nothing goes wrong and dealing with the disaster if it happens.”

      It’s cool though, since nobody needs jobs or anything. Lol

      I can only imagine even if you had a plan in place, many people might not be comfortable calling their coworkers and telling them they have to take a fat shit soon
