Dear New Guy,

Re: The "men's" room

It has come to my attention that you have not been properly inserviced as to proper bathroom etiquette. In this office, when we enter the bathroom we lock the door, both girls and boys. We have found that this makes for a much more pleasant experience as well as keeping unexpected guests at bay. Along those same lines, we knock on the door before we try to enter, then we try to knob, if the door is open it means the room is not occupied! If the bathroom is occupied, the door will be locked and the knockee waits his or her turn, thus far this has worked out very well for us.

You may have also noticed that we have approximately four men in the building and sixty-seven women. The concept of "men's" room is a fluid one, if you are in the bathroom it is considered a "men's room", if I am in the bathroom it is a "ladies room". Just because it says "Men" on the door it does not mean it is always a "men's room".

So to review:

We always knock first before entering the bathroom, both genders,yes, even the guys!
We always lock the bathroom when it is in use, both genders - yes! Even the guys!


Sincerely,

File Girl.
