What workplace?
Why would I put poo in the feet washing machine though?
Mr. Jobs?
Excuse me, WHAT DO YOU MEAN THAT THE BIN IS FOR TRASH AND THE TOILET IS FOR POOP‽
I’ve lived completely deceived, swindled, scammed… I won’t believe in anything again…
To be fair I’ve blundered across some toilet atrocities over the years that would’ve made me wish they’d just used the trash can instead.
Right, got it, so I pee in the bins? I mean I must do, or else what are they there for?
behind every sign is a story
I love that this is clearly ChatGPT, too.
Can you imagine writing that prompt? On a work computer?
You run into this a lot working in agriculture. Cultural differences.
Sometimes class elitism is called cultural differences.
Often times people (or towns, or cities) who use bins for toilet paper is because their plumbing can’t handle the toilet paper being thrown into it, and upgrading it is just prohibitively expensive.
And then they get called gross, or weird, or outdated culture, when it really is just “I didn’t choose where I was born.”
Except if it was just generated by a sloperator for a dumb joke, which is almost certainly the case here :/
I think it’s a real photo, but I find it hard to believe that is a real poster.
The photo may well be real, but the poster itself is definitely made with ai.
So it’s OK to pee in the bin is what I’m getting from this
Why would you do that when there’s a perfectly good sink right there?
curious where is your pfp from?
Floor’s too good for ye mfckers
The sign implies the bin is for anything besides human feces. Human pee would be fine. As would dog semen. And dog feces. And dog blood. Hell you could put a whole dog in the bin as long as it has no human feces.
Actually it doesn’t specify human anything, it just says “number 2” which, logically, would encompass fecal matter from all species that have separate tracts for urine and feces.
Therefore, one could surmise that only feces from species with a single tract, such as birds or fish, would be acceptable to place in the bin.
What if other animals have different numbers?
So you’d need to remove the feces from the dog, before putting it in the bin?
That’s just good practice in any case
Goddamn AI slop.
To be fair, when I went on a vacation to Mexico, the hotel indicated exactly the opposite…
I mean you still don’t put the whole dump in the bin though, just the paper you used. Pretty common in a lot of countries.
is there anywhere but the USA that doesn’t do it the right way?
I sincerely hope all of those countries have ubiquitous bidets.
Saw a sign saying “dont throw toilet paper into the toilet” in a middle eastern country last summer and was very confused.
The pipes are very narrow then and there is risk of clogging
it is more about the disgrace it makes water treatment, it clogs the treatment system, making the costs of treating the water much higher
No shit
Toilet paper also requires specific processing of the waste water. It’s normally screened off and sent to landfill when it reaches the treatment plant, but I imagine many countries wouldn’t have this infrastructure.
In the USA anyway toilet paper is legally required to dissolve in water within a certain time frame. Maybe this is not the case in other countries
ask any water treatment plant worker and they will tell you, that is a dream, toilet paper shouldnt be flushed at any situation
Makes perfect sense
Flushable wipes are NOT
I’ve heard of places where they have you put the used tp in a trash can because the plumbing can’t handle it.
But aside from that, and from tossing a dirty diaper in the trash can, I can’t imagine how else you might wind up putting the poop anywhere other than the toilet.
I’d rather shit behind a tree than be stuck in a small room wirth the solid remains of dozens of peoples shit.
Every toilet you go into you’re stuck in a room with some different levels of people’s shit, I’d wager, minuscule or otherwise.
That’s the majority of South America.
And Greece
Guess lots of counties with underdeveloped infrastructure
Even many Europe countries do the same which i’d argue many of them do not have poor infra
Just because you found this in a workplace toilet doesn’t mean the workplace put it there.
Great way to troll your fellow workers. Especially if you make the inverse of this sign and replace only some of the copies.
Maybe it is because I am not a native english speaker, but why is the feces/poop/shit called “number 2 waste”? Never heard of that expression.
So many wrong answers to your question. It’s simple - number “two” rhymes with “poo”, leaving number one to be pee.
That sounds like it doesn’t make any sense… why is pee not called number three, then? Maybe you thought of that explanation yourself when you were little?
“Number 2 waste” is an unusual phrase to native speakers (or at least THIS native speaker), but this poster is made with AI.
“Number 2” by itself is commonly understood to mean “poop.” Children will usually say “I have to take a number 2” instead of “having to take a poop” because it’s considered more polite. Number one is pee, by the way.
As for the origin of this phrase, I have no idea. It’s very very common, at least in the USA.
From internet: “In schools (especially from the 1960s onward, though likely earlier), kids held up one finger to ask to pee and two fingers to ask to go “number 2”.”
The expressions have stuck around ever since.
Interesting
Growing up, number 1 is pee and #2 = code brown
In the Netherlands the “elegant” cryptic way of referring to it is “de grote boodschap” [the big/great message], ie “I need to deliver the great message to the toilet”.
“Boodschap” sounds like what my butt says to the toilet, so it all works out?
I’d say that AI slop belongs in the bin
“Keeps the toilet clean”
Huh?
I mean look, nobody gets a degree in graphic design with this in mind, might as well phone in a few bullet points and get home by five.
A roommate’s mum was visiting from SEA and at one point we noticed that that bathroom was smelling like shit. We discovered a bunch of used toilet paper in the little trash-can for tampons and stuff.
Had to ask our roommate to please explain to his mum how European toilets work.
