We have a phantom toilet roll weirdo who won't use a bog roll that has less than ~10% remaining, so will start a new one, and then balance the newly started roll on top of the 90% used one already on the holder.

One time I used the toilet and there were 3 rolls in various stages of use balanced there.

Lovely new building and three toilets (one with a shower) between not that many staff. Only slight issue is that I work on the ground floor and the toilets are on the second floor.

Other plus is that the toilets are out of the way. You don't need to walk past any rooms to get there because they're next to the stairs.

When you are desperate, two flights of stairs could be a challenge yikes

Indeed. A ground floor desk wouldn't be good for someone with Crohns Disease.

It's a GP practice. There are patient toilets on the ground floor but I haven't needed to use them. And thankfully, my bladder and bowel control is fine.

Slightly off topic but the practice also has "beverage stations" on each floor which is very cool. No sloshing coffee all over the stairs.

Recently moved in to a new building. When fully occupied there will be probably 200+ people on this floor. 2 gents loos, each with 2 cubicles and no urinals. Seats are already starting to get loose and we've only been here a couple of weeks

Loss of urinals is serious. Hope that's not a trend irked

there is someone in our office who will always flush the toilet before and then after using the toilet. Weird

64 traps and 64 urinals for 2000+ blokes on site.

They don't look great most of the time.

Small office of 14 at the absolute max, 50/50 split male to female, with 1 toilet for each. Absolutely no problems, the only complaint being that some people 'forget' to bring out the finished toilet roll.

Although the stories we get from site aren't pretty, including, but not limited to, contractors using toilets in the incomplete houses. When they've not been plumbed in yet.

I do that.

I grab a few tissues, wipe the toilet seat and flush, before doing my business and flashing again on completion.

I do that occasionally - usually because someone has left their efforts in there, a stload of bog roll hiding something, or you have to clean up after them because the previous user might be a tax paying adult, but is unable to control their dick and hold it straight.

I do that, whenever I have to wash away the mess that the people before me have left. It's disgusting.

That smell of stale piss that you get if you don't? That's particles of their piss that you're breathing in. Not nice at all.

We have 5 loo's where I work for about 45 people I think.

1 Downstairs, which everyone avoids doing a number 2 in, apart from the CEO.
2 Upstairs on one side, and 2 on the other side. One of each has a shower in it.

Condition? Downstairs is fine, but the upstairs ones vary - often run out of bog roll because people use the last one and are too lazy to replace, ditto with leaving skid marks. We have a phantom clogger also. They get cleaned once a day in the evening.

Narks a lot of us off!

Wherever I've worked over the years the men's toilets have been fine, but I've heard some gruesome stories about the women's toilets. Funny how women like to paint men as the dirty, disgusting ones.

Pretty bad as numerous agency staff use them.
Cleaned only once in the mornings too.
Sounds like my work. Toilets shared with office and WH staff.
Disgusting.

Last office the toilets were the other side of the wall off the corridor. Probably 2m from the office door.
Always smells of st in the corridor which wafts through to the office. Makes a change to the drunks stting outside in the alley though.
Mind you the women’s toilet was worse. One day someone came back from their declaring their was a poo on the floor.

Worst in the world.
Forever replacing seats and lids.
One day I just had enough.
Had these fitted.

Won't be breaking these anytime soon.

Surprisingly cut down on the toilet rolls we went through.

No more broken seats or lids
