Office bathroom etiquette poll....

The handicapped stalls take up 3 spots upstairs and we don't have an elevator...

 

[HintonJamesHeel]

Folks know the lay of the land typically. It’s useable if you are at work and no one really qualifies to use it. If it’s an unknown spot - you have to pass.

 

[StrangePackage]

Not if there are other stalls available. Statistically the stall closest to the urinals is the least frequently used and therefore the cleanest.

How could you?!

Well maybe if the regular toilets weren't designed to be the right height for a four year old boy, I wouldn't use the handicap stall.

not unless there is no other option. save it for someone who needs it.

You forgot one option: I’m a germaphobe, so if I need to take a dump, I’ll drive home and do it.

As the parent of a child who is full time wheelchair user, I never use Handicapped stall and am very disappointed at the way able bodied people leave that stall all too often a disgusting mess we have to navigate

In my building I have 10 restrooms in easy walking distance. I've never had an issue.

I would prefer a bidet over our john Wayne toilet paper.

The handicrapper aka the Taj Mahstall at our office is absurdly high and therefore uncomfortable to sit on. I'm 5'11" and my toes barely touch the floor. That said, no one at our office is in a wheelchair or otherwise (visibly) handicapped, but even then, I will only use it if no other options are available.

 

[Kingpin]

Another etiquette question. Why would anyone choose to use a stall to pee (and mess up the seat) when there are multiple open urinals available. I see it all of the time. Can someone who does that (there are many) explain to the rest of us why you would do that?

 

[fourheels]

Accessible - not Handicapped.

I didn’t say me. I said it needs to be an option.

Being able to in the friendly confines of your own home is one of the more underrated perks of remote work.

I get that and if my desk was downstairs I would absolutely agree BUT I'm upstairs and we don't have an elevator and no one who would require the stalls is assigned to desks upstairs.

That, and having your pets around.

Indeed...we actually had to shut our building down for 2 weeks to fix the plumbing issues for RTO.

This is a good example of real-life game theory.

 

[NOVAHEEL13]

I didn’t say me. I said it needs to be an option.

Unfortunately, that wouldn't work for me because heading home would require me to go off base, drive 20ish, take a ish, then drive 20ish, then wait in line for the MPs to check my ID so I don't get shot try to get back on base.
