I had a pretty huge load the other week. I know it was huge because of the amount of **** that was peeking out of the water. If my **** is out of the water at work, it’s a pretty huge ****. There are high water levels in this particular toilet that is "my go to" at work.
I usually flush right after my first wave of **** hits the water, but I forgot to this time. So, I end up building up a pretty bad stench in there. I realize I forgot to flush once I'm near done. To give you an idea of how bad it was: I was starting to not like my own smell which is how bad it had gotten. At this point, I decide I should plan for an exit strategy - try and leave when nobody else is in there. I flush multiple times, but I can't get rid of the streaks/stains. I figure I've tried enough after 3 flushes, and make my way out.
Once I hit the stall door to go wash up at the sink, in comes a new hire that works down the hall from me into the bathroom. There is only one sit down in this particular bathroom as well, and he heads straight for where he had seen me just leave. My exit plan was ruined, but oh well, it was beyond my control at that point.
As I start to wash my hands, I see he had stopped in his tracks in the stall. He pauses for what seems like a good while a few feet away from the stall, and I figure he must be facing the decision, “I have to go, but how urgent is this?”
Based on my nasty to urgent-need-to-go understanding, he must have had to go pretty badly. I see him go in as I'm leaving the bathroom, and I feel a little bad for him at that point. I have been there before, and those are some of my more uncomfortable ****s. The seat still warm from the previous visitor; the lingering odor; the **** stains and streaks you can’t help but notice before you sit down. But, when you gotta go, gotta go now, so you bare the environment, and push through to the end as quick as you can.
So, I exit the bathroom. There is a coffee bar right outside, and I stop to get a cup before retreating back to my office. As I'm filling up, I hear the poor guy in there groaning. It must of been bad, because I've gotten many coffees here and don't ever remember a groaner I can hear from the coffee bar.
I can also pick up on two distinct types of groan types as I'm mixing my drink. There is what I call the good type of groan that comes along with an urgent dump. When you really gotta go and are able to finally let loose, the groan has more of a "ahhhh" ring to it. So, I hear that one, but then I also hear another type of groan being mixed int. It's the painful "uhhhhhh" groans. I can only imagine the "uhhhh" of disgust where from what I left him in.
So, I imagine this poor guy sitting in the stench and scene of what I left, in some type of horrible disgust that he has no choice but to take a **** in. However, he is also relieved to be able to let loose. It was like I had invented a new type of an emotion in a brief moment of this guy's life, and all of sudden I thought the scene in my head of this poor guy was going through was pretty funny.
So, I start laughing to myself. I realize he might think it's me out there laughing at the situation, cause if I can hear him in there groaning, he can probably hear me laughing. I move fast at this point, and retreat back to my office. Still laughing, trying to control it.
Me and him don't cross paths very often at work, but when we do, he has been clearly glaring at me for the past several weeks. We have yet to trade words since that day.
