In the Toilet

2:43 PM Edit This 4 Comments »

Years ago, I was kind of addicted to the series, Ally McBeal. Lawyers were gathering around in that particular series, and that was where the first time I knew a thing or two about Calista Flockhart and Lucy Liu.

Well, the one thing which captivates me the most and keeps in my mind so vividly, is the toilet placed in their law firm. Well, it's a unisex toilet. I could not recall specifically what had happened in that very toilet, but I do remember that funny things often happen in there.

Now, when it comes to the year of 2009, a unisex toilet appears again in my life. That is, a toilet which is located in my current workplace.

It's somewhat strange when you enter the toilet and seeing a female washing her gentle hands in front of the mirror. And sometimes, when I enter the toilet, I could took an accidental glance at a female who just entered one of the cubicles in the toilet.

One more thing which I found quite awkward... Well, maybe not for the others, but I actually feel awkward myself. The story goes like this, there was a time where the OPP went so smoothly, and one of my female colleagues was somewhat giving me compliments on how well I co-operated with her throughout the seminar. After the speech, both of us were going for a loo, as a result of a long test of patience.

So, each of us entered different cubicles respectively (Hell, of course we did that). But my colleague was still talking to me even we were in our respective cubicles. She kept saying stuffs about our seemingly countless co-operations in the near future, even when we were in the moments of pee-ing.

Just imagine, those were the moments where we were having conversation while listening to the dripping sounds of excreted, liquidal materials at the same time. Well, I responded by having some cynical laughs and told myself not to speak much for I had my little business to do throughout the urination period.

Wow...that was quite embarrassing, wasn't it?

Yours is an incident where two different genders shared a toilet accidentally, whereas mine is a somewhat COMPULSORY stuff which is, for instance written in the company's policy, and sounds like, "hey, two of you must share the same toilet!" LoL!

@shilei,

Well well well... if you guys are talking about incidents in secondary school, I had one such occurrence during primary school.

Back then, I just shifted to a new school. Naturally, I was suck at recognizing the route as I was still a newbie (but this disgraceful thing still remain to be one of my weaknesses, to be frank), so accidentally, I bumped into a female's toilet, in which I thought that it was for the brotherhood.

Out of the blue, a somewhat fierceful and puzzled stare was on me from a girl who had just came out from a cubicle.

Embarrassed, I ran like a road runner without giving a second thought.

Oh boy.. I think I'm a memorable man in her heart till now :)
