So my girlfriend put me in

[samplegirl]

the refrigerator this morning.
We were talking and next thing ya know I couldn’t hear her.
She was looking for 45 minutes until she found her phone inside the frig!
I told her I nearly froze to death.

1. I had a girlfriend who would take me (on the phone) to the bathroom with her

I'm still not sure how I feel about that but we broke up for many other reasons.

(wink)

3. I was paged for an IT issue

while the guy was relaying the issue I interrupted him and asked, ARE YOU PISSING?!?! When he didn't reply immediately I slammed the phone down. A few minutes later a coworker of his called to tell me the issue.

4. Oh, gawd - no way, no way, no way! Blecchh!

If my husband and I are in the kitchen and I need to "answer nature's call," I go upstairs to one of the bathrooms there rather than use the guest bathroom which is immediately adjacent to the kitchen.

If we are at someone's home and their bathroom is near where all the people are gathered, I turn on the water in the sink.

In the years before cell phones, I remember reading some travel advice to never use one of the phones that some hotels used to have in the bathrooms with the caveat, "Keep in mind what the other people using that phone were doing while they were holding it."

5. see, you understand bathroom protocol!

it should be innate but apparently is not

another huge pet peeve of mine is public restrooms, why is there so often pieces of toilet paper all over the place, is this how they treat their bathrooms at home?

6. Add to pet peeves women who somehow manage to leave...

...drops of urine on the seat of public bathrooms.

We have been married for 40 years, and I still always close the bathroom door. I prefer to floss and brush my teeth without an observer.

Yes, indeed!

7. side note

that pissing guy, turned out he was a newish employee with a baby on the way, and was terrified I would report him....a coworker quickly assured him (Skittles) would do no such thing, she probably forgot about it after she slammed the phone down.

8. Obviously you have not forgotten.

I'll bet he doesn't do that anymore.

Was this someone you had to interact with in person?

[Skittles]

9. well, forgotten in the vindictive sense

no, this was on offsite person

[3catwoman3]

10. "...an offsite person."

For which I am sure both of you were grateful and relieved.

[Skittles]

11. I'm betting he never made that mistake again

and that is what counts

[Skittles]

2. OK samplegal....clarify

she put her phone in the fridge WHILE in a conversation with you? Is she showing dementia symptoms or are you that boring?
