The Public Restroom Knock

[Beirut]

Oh my, this brings back memories.

Back around '82, I was a security guard at an office building in Montreal. We get a fire alarm on the 15th floor. I fly up and clear the floor (including the bathrooms) I had to go into the women's can and make sure it was empty. I open the door and yell out who I am and what's going on and ask if anyone's there. Then I do it again because I see a closed stall. A third time...

"Security guard! We have a possible fire on this floor, is anybody in here?!?" Finally this woman in the stall answers feebly, in an blisteringly annoyed voice, "Yes... I'm in here".

"Well sorry lady, but if you can hurry up and finish peeing, the building would like to burn down if you don't mind."

Anyway, false alarm. But seriously, some people...

I don't ever use public toilets, as they usually are to disgusting to even go near.

I remember the toilets at Burnden Park....but then I'm probably suffering from post traumatic stress disorder.

I have heard US toilets are weird and have a large gap at the bottom of the door.

I usually say "You can come in if you want, but you'll have to sit on my lap".
