Bathroom ettiquette of coworkers

August 12, 2006 By Michele 1 Comment

Dear Mr. Executive Guy,

I understand that you’re the head honcho person for legal affairs. Not my boss, but up there. I get that. I get that you wear suits, have a nice home, the perfect kids & wife, and a 6 digit salary. I have a couple things to tell you.

1. You are one of two men in our suite. Out of 7. Us women outnumber you. Including your assistant. it behooves you to make us happy.

2. We only have one coed bathroom. We all share. Please be cognizant of this fact.

3. Please lock the door while you’re in there. When the lock says, “Vacant,” I’m liable to come in there. I just don’t need the visual, dude. We already shared THAT little experience, why do you want to relive it?

4. Why or why or why will you NOT put the seat down? Please see number 1.

5. When you do your little shakey shakey? Do it OVER the toilet. I must sit to pee, and it would be wonderful to stop trailing my pant legs in your piss, since you do this on the floor.

6. I understand farting while peeing. It’s natural, and certainly the proper place to do it at work. But PLEASE use one of the four air fresheners on the counter after. It’s just not fair for me to walk into the cloud when you leave the bathroom.

Sincerely,

Your female grossed out coworker.

the body of work…

If you’ve read for any length of time, you know that I work for a movie studio. I work in music. I help put music into films. I travel the people who make the music, help schedule the stages they record on, and PO and invoice and all that good stuff. Contracts and lawyers abound. I always hesitate to mention work, lest I be Dooce’d.

However – I’ll be doing no linking, and I’ll be cryptic. We have a movie coming out… One word, first letter S, last letter N. There are tights involved. I brought home the soundtrack last night, and let Poe listen. The main titles actually gave me goosebumps. And since Poe knows the song well – and what comic reader/movie fan wouldn’t? We were totally geeking, and I had a grin from ear to ear. I haven’t seen the film yet. I’ll see it in a special screening in a couple of weeks. But I have to say – for our portion… I’m so proud of this body of work. We did it justice. The original composer of the theme, Mr. W…..S would probably be proud of what was done with his theme. We’ll see. I so hope this proves to be a box office hit. We did good. I’m proud. Go see it.

Sightings

In working at the studio I come across people. Some I meet in the course of my work, or just say hi to, others, I’ve just seen going along on their business. Since I won’t be here forever, I thought it’d be fun to keep track and remember.

In no particular order…

Tour Guide Position

*~*ANNOUNCEMENT*~*

Summer tour guide positions available on a studio lot in Burbank, CA. I think you need to be 18 – and it would probably be the perfect summer job for college students. Contact me at sparksfley@aol.com for the details, if you have someone you think might be interested.

and away we go…

So. We’re up and running! I am, however, way behind on my archive uploading. I could, with MT, do an import, but with all the coding I would have to do anyway, it’s really as much work to do entry by entry. So, I’m still working on that and the other things I want to add to the site.

I haven’t talked to Stacey since Thursday. I’m sort of a slave to her schedule at the moment, and that’s okay. But I worry about her when I don’t hear from her in a while. She’s got a lot on her plate.
