Maybe there are some things you just don't want to know ...
I just finished visiting the restroom (why do we call it a restroom? I mean, it's not like we do much rest in there ... a lot of the time the noises I hear from the other side of the stall wall are far from that. Maybe I should pick up a bit of grammar from the UK and begin calling it the "toilet"). As I was washing my hands I couldn't but help shoe checking the other stall's occupant, white flip flops. As I was opening the door to leave she exited her stall, within 5 of my steps down the hallway the restrooms door opened - she could not have had enough time to wash her hands. Gross! I was just about to announce, "Just a warning, don't shake hands with any women wearing white flip flops today", when the culprit came around the corner. By the way she stopped and began talking to one of my co-workers I realized she was a student worker ... not to mention the way she was dressed - jeans, flip flops, and was that a sex pistols t-shirt? Moral of the story - do not shake hands with white flip flop, sex pistol wearing girls today. 6 comments from 3 users

Buy her hand sanitizer and wrapped it as a gift (secretly of course), and leave a note,.."good hand wasing makes for less germs" or something like that.

How about "Next time lift your feet so I don't find out who you are" ;) The sanitizer is a good idea, lol!

Don't they call it a "loo" or something like that in England? Why? Who knows. Maybe a Banos.

Yes, they say "loo", but also "toilet" I learned that lesson when I asked a friend who worked in a London pub where the "restroom" was. He immediately put on his best american accent and said "Excuse me were is the restroom" (and he always sounds like he's trying to impersonate John Wayne when he does an American accent). Then I was given a lecture about how it is a "toilet", not a restroom, or a bathroom, because you do not rest, or take a bath there. :)

In the Philippines it's the "comfort station" that sounds ahem relieving:D

Sometimes I do my best thinking in the comfort station. My 6th grade teacher would say "I'm going to go think" when she was going to go use the toilet. To this day if someone at home asks me where I'm going when I get up from the couch I'll reply, "to think".
