Default PEEPEE

This weekend I was at the the mall when I had to use the restroom. I go in and do my business. I wash then dry with the blow dryer- which i hate very much becasuse it never really dries anything. I noticed that FOUR people used the restroom and never washed their hands and then went on their way .

My question to you is:
Do you fine people wash your hands after using the restroom all the time

Some of the times

Never

Some of the times. If the bathroom looks nastier than my hands. I don't.

A group of us were at a concours car show at the local university. We went to the designated restrooms in a classroom building.

The womans restroom was out of order and a maintaince man was trying to unplug the toilet. He came out, wearing gloves, told everyone that the toilet was plugged and then said he had to go upstairs to get a plunger.

Without removing the gloves, he then went over to the elevator, pressed the buttton outside and inside the elevator. He soon came back with the plumger. He came down the stairs, using the hand rail, with the gloves still on.

Our group looked at each other! YUCK!!

It's also annoying when your'e in a grocery store or a restaurant when there is no hand soap. That also means no soap for the employees!

My dad taught me not to pee on my fingers.


I usually wash my hands unless the sink area is disgusting.

I grew up on a farm. Sometimes I wash, sometimes I don't. No use going through life being all scared of germs. Do you wash your hands every time you touch money? Doesn't over 90% of paper money have traces of fecal matter on it? There is dead skin floating around us all the time. OH NOEZ!

Exactly. Ever go camping? No sinks around when your done peeing on the tree. You will also eat many things while camping that you would even think about at home.

I'm not scared of germs!! I work in an elementary school with 330 children. Some of them still in diapers. I KNOW they all donmt wash their hands.

While camping i understand- but inside in a pretty clean restroom- you would think most would was.

Germ-x is a good solution to a nasty bathroom. I have a big bottle of that in my car and use it everytime before I touch the steering wheel. Dont want to get my car sick.

Yeah, I think there should be sinks on the outside of bathrooms too lol! Cause you wash your hands, and then touch the same door handle to get out as the people who didn't wash there hands, I think I'm just a little OCD.

Nah I'm like that too. Just take the towel you used to dry your hands to open the door.

I work in a hospital and we are actually sent memo's on "Proper Handwashing Technique" from our Infection Controll department. Even with a hospital-grade anti microbial soap, you are supposed to lather and vigorously wash for at least 30 seconds. Then you are supposed to use a paper towel to turn off the faucet and open the door to leave. If any one of those steps is missed or cut short, it was ALL for nothing.

My personal theory on this kind of thing....if you obsess about every possible little germ, the first time one does get through it's going to make you sick as a dog. If you don't worry about it your body will build some natural resistance to it. If it doesn't kill me, it makes me stronger!

that is the same theory i have and tell my gf. When she was young, she alwasy used to get dirty and climb tress and what not. Now, she hasn't been doing that and when she gets sick, she gets SICK. She is kind of a germ freak and being with me kind of annoys her how much I don't care about germs.

I have a booger theory. When we're kids, most kids eat their boogers. Mucas traps pathogens from entering our bodies. If we eat the pathogens trapped in the mucas, we will slowly develop immunities to these pathogens and slowly become immune to more disease.

She laughs at me, but tell me, isn't that a logical theory!?

Believe it or not, that theory has been supported by actual studies. What you just said, is in fact, true. Gross, but true.
