Dear Ava K Lamb,
At the country club where I work, the toilets are not in stalls, they are in completely enclosed closets. As a result, the autoflush toilet sensors, which ostensibly are light activated, do not go off until one opens the toiletcloset door completely. Sometimes someone tries to go past me as soon as I open the door, and walk into the toiletcloset before the toilet has flushed, meaning my shit/blood/tampon is still sitting there. I have learned to keep blocking the doorway till it flushes...but what can I say to the person who's trying to go in that would make things less awkward?
signed FLUSHED WITH EMBARASSMENT
Don't sensor toilets have a button on them (near the scensor)
So that you can manually flush before the light?
I tend to go that route.
Otherwise...I like the block the door plan. Maybe you could strike a pose...or make a business card to hand out that explains why you blocked the door. (dear madame, in your haste you have forgot to wait for my feces to flush, you should step back unless you would rather stand here and count to three)
Or tell them ---"don't nudge past me please, I have poop on my hands"
Or leave something in the stall that you "remember" as you exit STALLING the stall transaction! (ohh i seem to have left my tunic on the TP dispenser)
Or bring construction flood lights or a flashlight in the bathroom with you to shine on the censor (whichever works) before you exit!
I like your question.
Ha, you could put of "police line do not cross" tape up ---and exclaim "if pooping is a crime, I'm guilty"...
Thanks for the great question, many people , million, are probably suffering in silence
I wonder how far you are willing to go to solve this !
Hope your having fun and your bowels are smooth
Xox
