What'd I Miss?
I always seem to walk into the ladies' room at the office in the middle of a conversation that either I really don't want to know about or I missed something vital. I had mentioned before that I'd post some of the lines I've walked in on, so here goes:
"And that's why I always wash my dishes with bleach." And that's why your pets and children are dead.
"I love this job, you don't have to touch anyone." What did you do before??
"Every time I go to Children's I get pink eye." Maybe you should stop going there and putting germy things in your eyes.
"That lady is so needy, every time I call her, she wants to talk to me." Yeah, I hate it when I call someone on the phone and they want to talk to me.
"I'm PEEING! Yeah, I'm in the bathroom. I'm on break, I only get like three breaks a day." I sure hope you're on the cell phone, lady, although really, couldn't this conversation wait two minutes?
So that's a random sample of things I hear right here, in the bathroom our office shares with a couple other companies. It's possible that these conversations were totally rational if I'd heard the whole thing. But probably not.

The last one is my favorite. Where else is this person peeing?

You know, Patrick, that was exactly my first wonder - did the other party ask "Are you still at your desk?" :D

And you know what? The bathroom isn't the place for these conversations. I don't know about you, but I don't like talking - to anyone - while in the bathroom.
