If they don’t want you to flush paper down the toilet… why do they provide you with so much on the walls?

I just heard a news story about a store's toilet exploding and covering a dude in shit (who is now suing). I can't help but think this is that very bathroom after they were taken to court.

Knowing people, this might as well be the bathroom before it happened.

Had so many problems with people flushing paper towels and throwing used toilet paper in the trash at my old job.

The latter was usually recent immigrants that didn't understand you can flush toilet paper.

Not sure about the paper towels though.

Sociopaths. Had a regular customer who would do this then tell on himself but try to blame it on "someone" like it was already there when he got there. Chief, we've been open 15 minutes, you're the first person to go in there today.

Given that small typed one, it sounds like they've had troubles where there wasn't enough toilet paper so people waddled out to get a paper towel to use. But who exactly is going to stop mid poop to kindly ask a staff member for more toilet paper? If they don't want people to flush paper towels, get a toilet paper dispenser with two rolls.

Apparently as long as it's not a paper towel you're alright. So go ahead and wipe your tush.

Doesn't say anything about flushing cloth towels

Better test it by flushing some trash first to make sure it works

A place I used to work had a similar problem with people flushing the wrong kind of paper. Turns out the company, which sold expensive charcoal grills, wasn't putting enough tp in the employee bathrooms.

As long as you help clean afterwards.

I wish we could activate them to explode. So many seemingly normal people do not know how to properly operate a toilet. This is not a race, ethnicity, sex, gender, etc. problem; it's across the board. What's really frustrating is that often it doesn't impact the morons offender as much as an innocent person that does know a toilets functions and limitations (think apartment life). It's not fucking rocket science, people.
