How a Person Treats a Public Restroom...

   .. tells you an awful lot about the kind of person they are.

   It may not seem intuitive and it is certainly a little gross but I do think it is true.

   I work in a large office building with mid-sized men's and women's restrooms located on each floor. I can't speak for the women's restrooms but in the men's restroom on my floor I have witnessed some things that are amazing.

   We've all seen people leave toilet paper fragments on the ground beneath stalls but the frequency with which I see people not wash their hands, karate kick to flush toilets (both sit down models and urinals) without using their hands, and leave urinals unflushed is appalling.

   People, would it kill you to not be fucking pigs?!

   What this has told me is that I now have a list in my head of the people that

   A) I would never shake hands with or accept a high-five from
   B) I would never loan anything to that I wanted to use once they gave it back
   C) I would never help out of a bind because it is clear they are so selfish they'd never return the favor if I needed it.
