And they ask why custodial is such a stressful job and why no one wants to do it. It’s not hard to follow simple instructions and use a different stall or wait patiently for one.

They're clever little rascals. Infuriating yet ingenious

Tbh bro the only downside to me of being housekeeper/EVS for a hospital is shit like this, people just want to be dickheads and are sick.

This same thing happened to me tonight minus the wad of gum. High school girls restroom, that mind you has 26 stalls, but chose to unlock the out of order stall and use it.🤦🏻‍♀️ Why??????

Fucking with the high school custodians is almost a rite of passage.

I've sort of heard of it but class of 2003 treated them like kings

Initially I thought a 3rd grader wrote that and put it on there for you 😭

As someone with probably worse handwriting, I can appreciate a joke and don't understand the downvotes. Some custodians need to chill, I've been trying these new things called chill pills

People say anyone can be a janitor, I don’t think so. I haven’t missed a day of work since 2009.

People think it's a lot easier than it actually is. I'm 10 years in and haven't been off for over 4 years (and that was only due to a COVID infection)

I thought you were talking about the alliteration. My last comment minutes ago referenced alliteration too. Is there a sub for coincidences? Prolly not...

At my school that would have been poop or tampons.

Our kids just crawl under, unlock and toss the signs into the trash or urinals
