Possible handbook revision . . .

Everybody has to take care of business when nature calls. At work there is a restroom available for staff members only. I usually just pop into the one closest to our office which happens to be the one in the main commons area. I learn about alot of things when I go to the girls restroom during the school day. For example:
  • When two girlfriends are in side by side stalls they don't care who else is in the restroom, they carry on a personal conversation, back and forth about whatever and do not miss a beat, no matter what the topic is.
  • The restroom has become the new locker room apparently. Girls are constantly getting dressed for PE or sports in the public restroom, instead of the girls locker room . . I am stepping over people to get to the toilet . . arrrghhh! I asked them, "why don't you get dressed in the locker room?" "because it's too crowded in there". and it's not in here . . oh brother.
  • Teenage girls have to have their face 1 inch away from the mirror when they are applying makeup, fixing their hair or working on a zit.
  • No matter how many times they fluff up their hair with their fingers, they need to do it one more time.
  • Girls have gotten 100% better about not leaving graffiti in the bathroom stalls than back in the 70's, not much good reading anymore . . .
  • You will hear gossip in the restroom, even when they see you walk in the door . . "Hey girls . . don't talk that way about so and so !" . . oh there it is . . . the famous eye roll . .
  • Girls do wash their hands, I have to give them credit for that.
  • When you are sitting and doing your business . . don't fret when you begin to hear a strange noise . . tick . .tick ..tictictic .. tick . . tictic .. tick .. tick, it is the girl in the stall next to you sending text messages while sitting on the toilet . . oh my gawd!!??? Doesn't anybody just go to the bathroom anymore?
