First week at a new place....

When I was working at a local entertainment distributor, T.H.E., we had someone literally spray their liquid poo all over the toilet walls. You could smell it from our offices and the bog was actually on the warehouse floor. :eek:

I didn't see it personally, but the guy who discovered it said it was running down the walls and everything. We actually had an office sweepstake going, guessing just how someone could physically carry out the act in the first place. It turned out the person in question had 'gone' into a carrier bag then flung it around the room. :eek:
 
I had to work away in India in a Dell call centre training the call centre staff many years ago (never again), and while they may have you believe they are entering into the developed world, when it comes to call centres they can probably give us a good run for our money, but when it comes to bogs with them, Jesus wept.

In the Dell offices the toilets were a ****ing disgrace - these guys ate and **** like ****ing animals. They made the bog out of Trainspotting look positively gleaming. There were three cubicles - two "western style" (i.e. "civilised") toilets, and a hole in the ground. I thought it was bad enough when I went in there and there was one western style one free, with "muddy" footprints walking out of it, but that was before I walked in there whilst they were being cleaned.

The "cleaner" was equipped with one mop, and a cloth. No cleaning products, no bucket, no gloves. He would wipe the urinals down with the cloth, then go and wipe the sinks, making a good job of wiping the taps & tap handles. Then he'd take the mop, and mop the floor with it (the water needed was already on the floor, provided by the hoses by the toilets they used to wash their ****holes with, spraying their crap all over the bog/seat/floor in the process) - he'd then go into each of the toilets, mopping the floor there, including the hole in the ground, which he'd dunk the mop into and give a good scrubbing.

And the management wondered why the workforce was off sick all the time??

Reminds me of when I was working away in Turkey (moreso the eastern side) last year.

I was working in a huge distribution warehouse and had the sudden urge to go the loo. I hadn't been toilet in the warehouse yet (had saved it all for the hotel), so asked one of the guys if he could take me around.

We trudged off and came to a big portakabin. Walked in and the first thing that hit me was the stench. I took a peek into one of the four cubicles and upon not seeing a 'toilet', popped my head back outside and asked where the toilets were? He pointed to a hole on the floor of the cubicle. With **** all around it. With no toilet roll, only plastic spoons that you had to wash with a hose coming out of the wall. They also didn't have any hand bars, ... they must all be expert crouchers.

Needless to say I pretended to go but saved the real deal for the hotel.

For the rest of the week I didn't touch a bit of food / drink in the warehouse for fear of needing to go again.

It's crazy... you'd think they'd at least (by now) have porta loo's that they empty into a hole where they do not actually do the business... kinda shows what we've got here.

I'm not even being naive because i've seen the hole in the floor style toilets plenty of times (southern france, morocco, egypt...) but it was like these guys just made them as sick as possible.

People not bought up in first world countries in unable to use toilets shocker!
 
Hey forgot about this thread.

Anyway. I left ages ago so am happy to reveal that the company in question was BT. Not some exchange with hairy assed engineers but a place where much of the BT infrastructure is controlled from. It was a very strange place indeed.
