Potty mouth

I have never understood those people who feel the need to take a phone call in the bathroom.
On my way out of the office tonight I stopped by the loo and there was some chick in there on the phone.
We have so many little conference rooms where someone could go to have a quiet phone call.
Why take your phone into the john?
The other thing is that we have those auto-flush toilets.
So even if someone wanted to try and be discreet on behalf of the toilet talker, they cannot.
FLUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUSH!!!!!!!!!!!!
Me, even if I am in a restroom that does not have those auto-flush toilets, I flush away without guilt.
If you take a call in the crapper, you have to expect a little flushing.
I once was in there and some 20-something girl was a couple of stalls away, crying to a friend over some breakup drama.
Really?
You want to do that while hovered over a commode?
Go to a conference room.
Go to your car.
Go find some other place.
It's not only rude to the other people trying to pee in peace, but it is quite rude to the person on the other end of the cell signal.

Not to mention that the echoes of their voice bounce obnoxiously all over that confined space. Makes it hard to concentrate on, shall we say, the task at hand.

I know!
And do they really think the person on the other end of the call hasn't figured it out?
