Bathroom Etiquette
I'm sorry to have to write this. I never thought it to be necessary until the events that took place in the bathroom at work today. Let me break it down for you. THERE ARE NO MANNERS IN THE BATHROOM. Let's say you're in a stall brownberrying. Or maybe you're taking a poop nap. If the guy next to you sneezes, you do not under any circumstances say bless you. The whole point of stalls in the bathroom is to maintain anonymity. They're not in there and neither are you. It brings up the age old question: If somebody sneezes in the stall next to you, but nobody's there to hear it, does anybody need to be blessed? I say no. It's awkward. What are they supposed to do? Common courtesy says you're supposed to say thank you. But just because you gave your voice up to be IDd doesn't mean they should too. That's a lot of pressure, so just don't do it. Even if you recognize their shoes. You don't say anything. You don't know them.
