    I’ve talked on the shitter. I heard someone dying and asked if they needed help, they never replied, just did up their belt and fled in panic. Never again!

      I rather die alone on a toilet than talk while pooping. I’d flee too.

      Yep. Heard a coworker vomiting her guts out in the accessible stall and I asked if she needed help. Turns out she was just having morning sickness.

        A few months ago I went to a steakhouse with some friends and learned that 3 ladies from the wedding party in the party room had had too much to drink and were sharing a stall (small bathroom with only 2 stalls) puking their guts out for a solid 20 minutes straight. As we paid and left we saw the paramedics arrive to escort the ladies off of the premises and an employee poised and ready with cleaning supplies to begin cleaning up the wreckage their stomachs had wrought upon the porcelain.

      Your use of “bloke” implies you’re in the UK, so perhaps it’s just manners… But as someone who has worked in a large, multi-cultural office in the US, it is definitely a cultural thing. There are some people that have no problem chatting on the phone at full volume, in an echo-y stall, while audibly shitting. And I mean audibly lol.

      I have had one experience where I was sitting in the middle stall, of three, between two people who were having a full-on conversation back and forth over me. I kept like clearing my throat just in case maybe they didn’t realize someone was there… Nope, they just didn’t care lol.

      Just the thought of behaving like that is mortifying to me lol, especially in an office where I have to then interact with those people…

        I experienced that in New Jersey once. A man was speaking Spanish, presumably while on the phone. And he was very audibly taking a shit. He even continued talking while straining to push the poop out.

            I kind of get that. But I still feel it would be incredibly rude if someone called me and I could hear them on the shitter. But that’s my personal sensibility.

              I think the idea is that the other person just hears occasional ppppts or running water and assumes the person is in a busy boiler room or cooking.

      I’ve been in men’s room recently that didn’t have urinals in view when I walked in. Which did give me a slight panic for a moment that I had walked into the wrong door.

      I opened the first stall door, and there was the urinal. Interesting.

      They had also adopted the European style of floor to ceiling stalls and stall doors. It was actually a very nice experience.

        The stall only contained a urinal? What happens if you need to take a shit?

          You don’t use that stall. What happens if you have to shit at any given time, go looking for urinals?

          It’s a bit weird though yeah, especially if you are waiting in line for that stall to open and only when entering discover it’s not going to suffice your needs.

      I don’t know about being mad, but if a coworker tries to talk to me in the restroom regardless of specifics they immediately go on my “perhaps has body in basement” list. Usually it’s the Cxx people…who are sociopaths. So the math works out.

          That was my first reaction as well, but probably C-suite people, like CEO, CFO, etc.? (I say “etc.” here bc I can’t think of any more:-P)
