Bathroom Horror Stories

Hey guys! Long time gaffer first time thread-erer. Anyway...

Working in retail you see some pretty messed up things (specifically in the women's bathroom). I thought it would be good to share some horror stories relating to public bathrooms or just that type of situation in general.

I'll start this off with the saddest story I've ever witnessed in retail. It's a story of a lady who came in with her son. After shopping we noticed something was off with her little boy. He couldn't have been older than three or four, but what was compelling, was he was squirming non stop and saying something to his mother. She simply ignored him as he continued to trail behind her.

That's when things got interesting. First came the smell. Like boiled egg saturated in garbage and excrement. Then came the view. Poop dripped, dangled and clung to his leg, like he clove to his mother. Of course we had no idea where she let him drop his treasure. And yes...it was a treasure hunt. Though there was no "X" marking the spot. Instead we were lead by smell and unfortunately greeted with a deep liquid mixture that blocked the entire toy aisle. There's a joke somewhere in there to be made.

Best part is the mother still didn't care. The terrible smell permeated through the entire store as this lady walked around the department still shopping, and even into the clothing section with her little turd factory still soaked with shame. Obviously management tells her to leave and clean up her son. Though I can't help but feel bad for the little guy as it seems he has a hard life ahead of him with a mother who treats him as a dog who needs walking.

That mom sounds like a total bitch. If my wife was doing that to our kid I would donkey punch her.

Wasn't there a thread with people who'd been in stalls and had other men start peeking under the stalls at them? Possibly grabbing at them? I seem to remember it being a university bathroom somewhere. Fucked up story.

That rings a bell. *checks archive*

Working in restaurant management for over 10 years, I have seen it all. Women are by far more disgusting than men. That's not to say I haven't seen some shitty things (literally) in the men's room, but when women have their period...jeebus...I have seen stalls that loooked like a murder scene. Bloody panties clogged in the toilet, on the seat, on the floor, in the sink.

That reminds me, I'm hungry...

Honestly, when you see it so many times, you begin to get used to it. Human beings are animals like everything else on this planet. Puke and poop don't bother me very much at all any more. The blood still gets to me though.

Probably similar tolerance to those in the medical profession I would imagine.

Well, when I worked at Mickey D's(funny cause this restroom topic originated from there). I saw a long deuce hanging off the sink where I was supposed to clean. Some assholes though it would be funny for someone closing the restaurant.

I didn't clean it up. My manager took one for the team and cleaned the area.....

That was like 7 years ago, it was my first job....and I was 15...

I laughed pretty hard when I saw it. Such a funny surprising picture. XD

Some older woman (not as old as you would think) shit herself in the grocery store that I work at. When someone went to check the bathrooms, mandatory visual inspection style, the woman was bathing at one of the sinks stark naked. She wasn't at all phased by the fact that someone walked in on her either.

I still remember in elementary school I was taking a shit. Some kid was in the stall next to me. Another kid is in the bathroom, who I believe is the other kids friend, called his name and then looked under the door of my stall. I think he was looking for his friend while also being a perverted idiot. Luckily I was just standing up as he poked his head under. I freaked out, called him a few names and quickly left.

What else. Some kids pooped and pissed on the floor at my middle school, but I never saw it myself.

At Borders we found porn mags in the mens stall on occasion. Sometimes straight, sometimes the gay mags we carried. None stained with cum at least, that I dealt with.

Water valve connected to the toilet bowl was turned off but apparently some douche asshat still decided to take a shit in it and can't be bother to turn on the valve to flush it.

It stayed there for few days resulting in maggots crawling around the bowl and dammit it's my turn on that week to clean it.

This is what usually happens. The employees won't clean it up, and if they do they'll half-ass it. I know what you're thinking, just fire them, but then I'm cleaning it up anyway. I can't really blame them, they're making 7-10 bucks an hour. The way I always looked at it was it's my restaurant, they pay me well, I better make sure it's cleaned up.

One time a toilet I saw at some resort gurgled and overflowed, flooding the bathroom with poopy water.
i'll admit that one time i flushed a toilet that was clogged up because i knew that shit would overflow. flushed it and got the hell out of there.

Humans. How do they work.

TBH though at least she cleaned herself up. Not many people do that.

Yeah, I can understand why it might be frustrating when your employee's are pretty ineffective in situations like that. While I'm only making minimum wage, I understand that regardless, its still my responsibility as an employee to clean the facility because regardless, its actually in my job description.

However, one must also evaluate the fact that I was an immature kid who really isn't depending on the job specifically. I'm only working for pocket money, my parents pay for a good number of my needs.

So its a weird issue.

Moral of the story, keep an eye on douchebags because they'll do stupid shit, like crap in a sink after they buy their meal. :/

Disgusting mother. People should not have children unless they're willing to take responsibilities associated with having one.

When my older brother was in elementary school, he had just finished using the bathroom and was washing his hands when the custodian entered and discovered a huge log in one of the urinals. The custodian picked it up in his bare hand, held it up to my brother, and said, extremely angrily, "Did you do this?" My brother said no and got out of there as quickly as possible.

I was on a high school band trip and we had spent the night at a church gym. On our last day there, a select group of boys, me included, had to clean the bathrooms. In the girls' bathroom, a friend of mine went into one of the stalls and removed the little bag that the girls put their assorted disgusting items in. Before he could get it into the trash bag, it burst all over the floor, and we had to clean it up.

I always thought these stories were pretty bad, but after reading some of the others mine seem pretty tame.
 
High School, it was the last class of the day and I really had to piss, I went to into the bathroom and opened the door to the stall farthest from the entrance and I saw it...

A hulking turd the size of a pringles can laying draped over the toilet seat. Half of it was hanging in the bowl and the other half, somehow staying together and hanging free on the outside.

As I turned away I saw another little treat -- a nicely pinched loaf tucked away in the corner of the stall. Some people, lol.

I used to work for a cleaning company and my misguided view of women as dainty delicate flowers who never pooped or farted was shattered daily when it was time to clean the restrooms. It didn't matter if we were in a high class law firm or medical office, or in a retail store, or in a small office with 1 person restrooms. The women's restroom was more disgusting almost invariably. Men are known to miss the target a lot so there is always some piss on the floor, and occasionally there would be some shit on the toilet seat or whatever, but that is child's play compared to the women's restroom.

Huge (and I mean fucking huge) mountainous regions of wet toilet paper on the floor, blood and shit and piss everywhere, in directions where you would be completely baffled as to how they got it there. I mean on the SIDE of the fucking stall. On the wall behind the toilet. In the sinks a few times. Splatters and chunks, the whole fucking shebang. Feminine hygiene products galore. Matter of indeterminate origin in colors I didn't even recognize. Tons of hair in sinks and on the floor. Panties that looked like they had been worn for 12 years and then left behind. Ugh, just remembering some of that shit is making me nauseous.

This was in the time before cell phone cameras, and while the conditions were so rank that now I would never use my phone in there lest that disgusting particulate matter sully my electronic device, I think the younger me would not have been able to resist snapping a few shots for posterity. If for no other reason than because the sights often defied description. And it was me and my buddy's (whose family owned the company) job to clean these putrid abominations. Luckily they paid us well for being teenagers and for doing some disgusting work. We probably cleaned around 150-200 different places while I worked there so it was a nice size sample.

I only did this job for about 5 months, but that small slice of time was enough to completely alter my view of women. Not into anything terrible or negative, but that parade of feculence permanently removed the veneer of women as being this pure and clean opposite of the piggish, disgusting male. No, they can wallow around in the shit with the best of us. I've fucking seen it. I stared into the abyss and the abyss changed me forever. The fucking horror.

When I worked at a movie theater, one time there was a stall that was exploded with poo. Like all over the toilet, and on the walls of the stall and on the floor. And on the ground there was the guy's underwear and his socks. It makes sense that he left his underwear because he probably had an accident in there, but it was kind of weird that he left his socks. I mean he probably got them messy because of all the poo everywhere, but then the rest of his clothes must have been covered too. Also there was some change on the ground. I think he was leaving me a tip.

You should have punched this horrible excuse for a human being in the fucking mouth.

It seems there's a rather glaring omission from this thread. I can't remember who it was, but he posted a thread about his memorable trip to a grocery store.
 
One time I was in the women's washroom because the maintenance lady wasn't working and they needed someone to check out some complaints that customers were making so they told me to go in. One of the toilets was literally covered in diarrhea. I mean imagine the toilet seat is a cake and shit is icing. It was dripping down the sides and everything.
 
Back in the good ole middle school days, I would walk into the bathroom and see a huge turd in the urinal. I saw this at least 5 times.

Another time I remember walking into the bathroom and thinking "damn this place smells like shit". I took a piss like normally and as I go to wash my hands I realize someone smeared shit all over the mirror.

Another time I walked into a bathroom in college and though "damn this place smells like cheese". As I go to the urinal I realized someone puked all over it. I was grossed the fuck out but I tried to go into the stall as I really needed to piss. I found that the stall was covered in puke. I mean this guy must have been 500 pounds to puke that much. Sick fuck.

Oh my.

With that said I asked my manager why there was always poop in odd places in the womens bathroom. He said that women don't like to spend a lot of time in public restrooms unless its a really chill type of restroom. So when pooping they don't let their bottoms touch the toilet to speed up the process I guess. This of course means if there is a volcanic rumbling in their bowels its going to spew all over the toilet and possibly the walls. I don't know how much of this is accurate. But that's what he says.
 
I just looked up the post I made in a thread last year, which backs up some claims from earlier.

Regarding women's restrooms...

I got my first job during the summer break before my senior year of high school. It was pretty simple, a department store was closing and I had to help them around their huge clearance sale, dispose of unwanted goods, and other stuff that needed to be done. Anyway, one day my boss tosses me some latex gloves and laughs, telling me that there's a situation in the women's restroom. I thought, at least it's not the men's... But I was wrong.

I set up the "Out of Order" sign in front of the door and knock to make sure it's empty. I go in and immediately I'm greeted by an unusual stench. It's not like the smell of feces and stale urine you get in the men's, it was some of that, but it was all mixed with this gross flowery scent. I see the problem. I guess someone tried to "hover" and completely missed. I would understand if they got a bit on the floor, but they unleashed their entire bladder into this massive puddle, which trailed into the center of the room and into the drain. It was gross, but hey, accidents happen, so I get a mop and clean up. My boss comes in and ask what I'm doing. I explain, and he nods and says, "Okay, but that's not the situation." He was also wearing gloves at this point, and was carrying disinfectant. He opens a few stalls and we see what's happened

I have been in some disgusting bathrooms. Bathrooms where degenerate nutjobs had smeared their own feces on walls. Where plumbing has clogged. Where bowls had overflown with urine. But til this day, I'd never seen something as disturbing as that bathroom stall. The rim of the bowl was caked with feces. The floor was covered. But the weirdest thing is that the walls were... I don't even know how to explain. It was like someone took several rounds of buckshot, and replaced the pellets with crap. Some kind of excretory explosion happened here. I can't comprehend how it could have happened. My boss was kind enough to assist me, and gave me an early lunch break. But it still haunts me. It haunts my dreams.

The feces thing was never rivaled by any other event, but the pissing on the floor was a common occurrence. Besides that, there was an immense disregard for hygiene. Pads and tampons were just left lying around. Blood could be seen on the floor and sometimes on the walls... It's terrible. It truly is.
 
It's one of my roommate's turn to clean the bathroom but it hasn't been done since last year. Fuck that lazy bullshit. One of them will have to clean it when we move out and that'll be nasty. I'm not giving in.

I also work retail. Got a complaint about the men's restroom. Go in to see water-sludge all over the floor coming from the first stall. Go in to see the shit-water-sludge filled the bowl to the brim.

Someone apparantly had diarrhea but couldn't make the toilet. They took their shitty underwear and shorts, put them in the bowl (yes the clothing was in the toilet bowl.) The evidence suggests that he then FLUSHED, what the heck? I'm so glad I wasn't the one that had to clean it up.
