Probably more than you care to know

Guys, you ever find yourself in a public restroom wondering, “did I just walk into the wrong bathroom?  Am I standing here using the women’s facilities?” and then realize that you’re standing at a urinal? 

Yeah, me neither.  I was just wondering.

…is stepping out of a stall & coming face to face with a woman exiting the adjacent stall. We actually had to check the door to see who’d walked into the wrong room, as there were no urinals at this establishment.

when you’re in the stall frantically trying to remember if there were urinals on the way in…

I glance up to check the sign EVERY time I use the restroom at work.  You would think after 10 years I would have figured it out.  But you see the Main Building at St. Ed’s can throw you for a loop.  On the ground floor the bathrooms appear in this order: Girl then Boy.  On the first floor it is boy then girl and the second floor is the same.  But on the third floor, where I work, it is Girl then boy again.  And the bathrooms on each floor are directly above the preceding floor…so if you are prone to walking and thinking as I am you may often walk in and feel your heart stop when you are jolted out of your reverie by the thought “Did I just walk into the men’s room?“.

We have two restrooms here. When I was the only employee (aside from the three execs), they were unmarked and we just used them willy nilly. But then when one of our female execs arrived, she placed little signs (crafted in Word and printed on the HP) on the doors marked ‘Girlz’ and ‘Boiz.’ I was irritated that now we had designated restrooms. Especially since there are 12 men here and 2 women. But then someone ripped down those signs and replaced them with ‘Dogz’ and ‘Kittiez.’ Now we have ‘Red Pill’ and ‘Blue Pill.’ So, I assume the restrooms are fair game again and I’ve been using both ever since.
