    How about washing their feet in restroom sink. One man always do it in our office restroom. (sample image from link below)

    again, religion being used as an excuse for fails to adopt to a new culture.

    This one I don't have a problem with, but I've spent a lot of time in the Middle East. Understanding why foot cleanliness is a prayer ritual is helpful here.

    Its hard to really say anything more than what @CaptAmerica said, not without violating TW rules anyway. I'll say this though: even if I were completely ignorant as to the significance of clean feet for prayer ritual, I'd still rather someone clean their feet in a workplace sink than see another unhygienic gross MF'er zip up their pants or exit a stall and leave the bathroom without washing their hands.

    Understand the prayer ritual and so ...
    Will be nice if people just do it secretly in a new country/area (culture), he can uses wet paper towel and clean his feet without put the feet up.
    Common sense will help bring peace to our world.

    I consider the port-o-potties at work "workplace" bathrooms since the only real/decent bathrooms are located in the control rooms or administrative office. Thus, when I am forced to pee in a port-o-pottie because I can't make it back to my office building, I treat the port-o-pottie as I do any office bathroom: don't pee on the floor, minimally touch things, and use the liter jug of hand sanitizer to clean my hands. I sure as hell won't poop in one though. I don't want my ass to rot off.

    This being said, I have come to be entertained by the doodling and graffiti adorning the walls of every.single.port-o-pottie. Some folks are pretty talented artists, and others write their hatred for one of their coworkers in the most interesting of ways.

    I don't understand two things, however:

    1. Why are there dicks drawn in every single port-o-pottie? Someone will call someone else a homosexual, but then draw a grossly anatomically exaggerated but highly detailed penis on the wall.

    2. Common sense dictates that when looking at a pile of poop in a toilet, one will see the toilet paper top of the poop... so why is it thats not uncommon to see the toilet paper underneath the poop, or completely absent?


    Side note: a few weeks ago some poor bastard at work died of a heart attack while on the toilet. What a shitty way to go.

    I want to tattle on every disgusting bastard who does this to their mother and grandmother. Justice will be served.

    Wife is a GM of a popular restaurant. Her stories have thoroughly convinced me that as disgusting as men can be, women by far are worse.

    Can confirm. I cleaned toilets to put myself through college. Women's restrooms were by far worse than men's.

    Some stuff. Not a lot, just some.
    They don't use regular TP in porta-lets. They use the TP that dissolves.

    Really? I'll be damned.


    But that still doesn't explain the paper underneath the poop.

    I am obviously very inexperienced with pooping in port-a-potties.

    The other reason you don't see paper on top has to do with the way the air flows through the john. The "chimney" vents the odors by drawing air through the seat opening...right across the mud mountain.

    Prevents back-splash. You want a blue ass crack?
