I legitimately love the spicy chicken sandwich from CFA and average one a week (it's a part of our campus) BUT you would never catch me defending them lol
I'm with Emilia, I ain't knocking. The indicator of whether or not someone is in a bathroom is if the door is locked or not. You forgot, that's on you.
If I was in there and someone knocked I would be very annoyed. There's a way to do this without us having to interact while I'm at my most vulnerable, like now I'm being forced to talk to someone because you can't check a door? Rude. I also get very annoyed when someone talks to me while I'm peeing or they're peeing. This ain't the time or place.
There is a system that unfortunately needs to be followed if people are too lazy to turn off the light when they leave 1. Approach and gently try the handle. If locked, go away. Do not wait outside the door. Find another restroom 2. If open, give a knock and wait 3. No answer? Slowly open the door. I’ve made it to step 3 and still walked in on some fucking weirdo I work with
I do not respond if someone knocks while I am in the bathroom. I always lock the door, so they should follow step 1 and walk away. An immediate knock is obnoxious
What the fuck? Always knock. If you’re in there and you locked, you say “yeah?” And they leave. A knock is way less intrusive than someone jiggling the handle while you are too fucking weird to respond
Them jiggling the handle requires nothing of me and does not intrude on anything. Having to speak to someone while I'm taking a shit is very intrusive and unnecessary.
Not saying one word to acknowledge the bathroom is occupied while people knock or jiggle the handle is truly insane to me and seems way more distracting and awkward
If I'm forced to say something because someone is knocking and can't take the major hint of a locked door, I will, it's just very intrusive for no reason.
If I didn't say anything when they knocked, I would be concerned they would come back with maintenance to unlock the door or something.
Yeah if I knock and try the handle and I don’t hear anyone inside, I’m assuming the door accidentally got locked and I’m telling an employee truly so weird to me
My system is fool proof if executed properly. Slight jiggle as to not disturb, knock, wait, enter. Again, this would all be solved much easier if everyone agreed to shut the light off after leaving.
My favorite dive bar (alexions) has a single person bathroom and I always lock the door when I go in and almost every time someone is turning the knob until it almost breaks off. I don’t get it. I guess they’re drunk?
Every bathroom door should just have some kind of indicator on the outside that shows it's occupied when the person locks it.
This week’s Double (along YKS saying the Doughboys didn’t like “Companion”) just shows how different my taste is from their’s.
