I was on a call yesterday and I really had to go the bathroom... so I muted the phone and tossed my headset onto my desk. Hoping they wouldn't ask for me while I was gone. While in the restroom... I saw a co-worker use the urinal while on a call, then keep talking on his call while he walked out... no flush... no hand wash.... just walked out and kept talking. I have never done this... and wondered if anybody else thinks this is as wrong...

Sometimes I pretend I'm using the bathroom when I'm not just to make the other caller uncomfortable.


But it's not a poll option.

yes, but on cordless phones, not bluetooth  ;D

when you gotta go you gotta go.

Not only do I not do it, but when I see someone in the restroom with me I flush repeatably and try and make as rude a bodily noise as possible just so the other party on that call knows how they rate.

everyone know what a "blue room" is?

i have been in situations where i was taking advantage of a port-o-let, and someone was trying really hard to get me on the 2 way radio.

i finally answered them, and they asked where the @#$ i was....so i told them.

VERY wrong, and fortunately have not witnessed anything similar yet.  Remember a David Sedaris piece awhile back where he was discussing this sort of thing with his sister and she admitted that she had talked to him while on the pot and had explained some of the sound effects by claiming she was "opening a jar"   :-X

when im drunk and have a gallon to pee out, i usually make a call. it gets lonely in there.

Back before bluetooth I used to try to scare people that were shouldering a phone in the bathroom to see if I can make them drop it in the can.

Thank you for posting this. I was going to post a similar thread. 

A few weeks ago, I was in the gym locker room and saw a guy texting with one hand and p*ssing with the other.   :-X  As he walked by..of course avoiding the sink to wash..I made a camment under my breath.  I think he heard and it embarassed him because he then circled back around to wash his hands.
