Men at Work

One of the commodes in our Women's Employee Bathroom quit flushing last week. An out of order sign was quickly posted on the door and a call was put in to building maintenance. A week went by without the toilet getting fixed. Last Friday I was trying to finish up a project at my desk before lunchtime, and I kept putting off a much needed run to the ladies room. Finally I could wait no more, and I rushed across the room and down the hall to the ladies room. I was in a hurry and not paying much attention when I entered the restroom, but I did notice one stall door was closed and the door to the stall with the broken commode was open, but the out of order sign was still posted. I could hear someone in the stall with the closed door so I rushed to the stall on the other side of the broken one. No sooner had I started taking care of business, when I heard someone banging on pipes in the other stall. OOPs! the maintenance men were in the stall behind the closed door working on the pipes. Well by now I was committed and it was too late to stop the flow, so I finished my business, washed my hands, and went back down the hall to the office. The women sitting at the receptionists desk gave me a funny look when I emerged from the hallway, and I asked them if they knew that there was Men Working in the Bathroom, they said they did, Well, I didn't I replied, and they busted out laughing.
Now that I think about it, I probably scared that poor Maintenance guy to death.
