A Slightly Gross Post
Let me apologize in advance for the topic of this post, but I can't be the only person in the world this happens to.
Now and then, when I go into the ladies' room here at work, there is an odor. You know what I mean, someone else has clearly had something that did not agree with them and the scent lingered. But, when you have to go, you have to go, so I hold my breath and go as quickly as I can. It seems when this happens, someone else inevitably enters the ladies' room while I'm washing my hands. So then I have a dilemma - I mean, I want them to know that I certainly didn't produce that smell, but really, what do you say without sounding like a lunatic? There's just no nice way to say "That wasn't me, I swear!" which of course would make them assume that it WAS you because why else would you be so eager to disclaim it? Sigh.

Best bet is to haul butt outta there as soon as possible. You're a gal, put a little bottle of hand sanitizer in your purse. That way, you can jet straight outta the restroom without saying a word. That's how we do it in the men's room, "silence is golden"... unless you talk about sports, then that's OK.

It depends on my mood. Sometimes I wait until the other person has finished and then go out and wash my hands. But sometimes I wash my hands very quickly and run outside just so they won't know it wasn't me...wait...
