School I used to service had a student who would crap in little used areas of the building and smear it on walls . It is a big Victorian style building so lots of nooks. The principal teachers and custodians did everything they could to catch him. It wasn’t until we installed cameras that they caught the kid. The head custodian showed me the tape. The kid was expelled. So there are crazy people out there. The kicker was two weeks later I went into a small pizza shop near my house and the kid was behind the counter. I turned and walked out.

[@Indi_Waffle_Girl]

Good choice. Poop hands pizza sounds like death 😂

[@amanur1518]

We had the same issue at a school I used to teach at, or so we thought... We would get to the building every morning and at least one teacher would find waste smeared on a wall or in a corner somewhere. All the teachers would joke about which classroom "the phantom shitter" would strike next We even had a special assembly about it and the headmistress pleaded with the kids to please stop and asked the person who was doing it to come forward so we could get them counselling. It turned out that there were a couple of stray dogs who had found a way to climb into the building at night and it was the dogs pooping everywhere.

The idea of not washing my hands after going to the bathroom grosses me out to no end. And if I know someone hasn't washed theirs and I see them touching the food at a buffet I won't touch whatever they had their nasty hands on. After all, that's how other people can end up causing an ecoli bacterial outbreak.

[@ivymcassey2405]

The lady in the 1st story is beyond a hero for cleaning up after other people’s poop 💩 & pee mess & equally for standing up for herself.

[@MegaGinia]

As a beginning teacher, we were told to befriend the cleaning, cafeteria, office, and other support staff. Best advice ever! I imagine it holds true for any job, really. If you have an ally in support staff, the sky’s the limit! A little kindness goes a very long way, which is a lesson Karen cannot seem to grasp. Edit to add: I wish more stories had music in them! You are a gem, Mark, who brings joy to all!💗💐✌️

[@lisanygaard2720]

Good advice. (I actually also work at a trucking company, and the women’s bathrooms are disgusting.) I made friends with the custodians. They know everyone and everything that’s going on.

[@MegaGinia]

@@lisanygaard2720 lol. When I worked at a small coffee shop, I had to clean both the men’s and women’s restrooms, and the women’s was always 100 times worse to clean! Although, if we are talking about horrible restrooms, the boys restroom in the Kindergarten hallway at one of the schools I taught at could often be smelled as one opened the door to enter the building! One of the first grade teachers told of the time that she had to go into the boys room to fetch a couple of her boys who had been a little too long, and found a few little boys in the middle of the room, urinating as they spun around. Apparently they were “trying to make rainbows,” and for some reason, this made perfect sense to them!

[@Puppeteer007]

I was support staff (front desk) a while ago at a doctors office and you better believe that I was more helpful towards the staff who treated me like a human being over staff that treated me like garbage! But it was the same vice versa! I never had a problem asking for a favor because I was kind and friendly towards everyone, but another front desk coworker always complained that everyone was so unhelpful, well of course they are when you won’t even acknowledge them when they ask you something!

[@MegaGinia]

@@Puppeteer007 This is exactly right! It boils down to simply treating people the way you would want to be treated. Such a simple concept, but it amazes me how many folks just cannot seem to grasp it!💐💗✌️

I think I can explain nasty toilets in nice places. The Karens that regularly patronize said fancy places are deliberately gross to stick it to the cleaning staff, whom they look down upon.

I used to deliver to places that were not open, to the public yet, pubs etc. When I asked them to sign my delivery sheet, the cleaners would say, but I am only a cleaner.

[@cookieflips]

I used to work as a cleaner in Vancouver in 2015 and part of my route when cleaning up overnight was the Cactus Club, the kitchen staff there have absolutely no respect for cleaners. You'll find dirty cups, oily towels, spatulas, utensils, and food scraps, dumped all over the muddy floor sometimes mixed in or hanging off of boxes with produce or other food supply. I later learned this was how they instruct their staff to wrap up for the night because the "cleaners will get it ready for the next day" and I cannot imagine why kitchen staff act this way especially at a high end place where you expect kitchen staff to be hygenic with your food.

[@vagrantmessiah]

I was an OTR trucker for a while, the bathrooms at truck stops/depots/tank cleans (for tanker trucks)/rest stops were ALWAYS disgusting to the point where you'd have to wipe even the sink with a wet nap, this first story makes me think that maybe it wasn't the drivers that did this (not entirely anyway).

I don’t blame people for not believing the last story, it’s almost identical to an episode of friends where this delusional woman thinks Joey is a real surgeon because he plays one in a TV show and that the show is real and just filmed for TV.
