Don't know whether it's been here before but what's people's views on toilet workers?

Jay D

Just wondered what does everyone think? Personally I completely hate them. If I want to have a piss I should be just left to it right and not have a beggar there for when I finish...

I know they aren't aggressive any I've experienced but I really hate that in clubs, complete nuisance!

Use the ladies jax or a random corner, the managment should provide a place for you to go to the loo if you are using their facilities.

We are living in a recession. Learn to love and respect them Jay D. For tomorrow it could be you who who's spraying the drunk mans neck with sweet smelling aftershave.

Biggins

O lord, a crappy subject!

Naa, they don't bother me - and in this day and age and state of the country finances, any job is a good job!

admiralofthefleet

if you hate them so much why dont you just enter the toilet with your head down, do your duty, wash your hands and leave

Tigger

Maybe you could piss on the begger. That would make him leave you in peace or kill you

Isn't urine sterile?

You don't need to wash your hands at all! AND with pish smelling mitts you'll clear the bar.

Smart Bug

If you hate them so much, go into the jacks, crack one off in front of them and demand they cleanse your flaccid member.

Worked for me. They don't have toilet attendants in jail, though you still have to watch your back.

oztots

Its not half bad in ireland,

Here they have them everywhere, i mean you cant go for a piss in mcdonalds here without giving themn 20 cent.

Sean Quagmire

reminds me i was at a comedy show last week and i was bursting to go so i ran to the jacks mid-performance, went and stood at the urinal with one of those workings behind me. Fecking stage fright i was standing there for about 5 mins and Nothing!

ban them i say

rvd156

Next they will try and shake your D**k for a €1...

Really annoy's me....:mad:

Prof.Badass

I hate them too, why do clubs have them? is it to stop people from doing coke or something?

To me they're above chuggers and aggressive beggars.
When i go into the jacks i wanna relax and take my time and wash my hands and maybe fix my hair or something without being scrutinised by some guy trying to cheat me outta money (most of the time you can even get to the sink properly coz they're in the way).

If a club advertised themselves as not having a toilet attendant i would go there for sure.

Most defiantly yes, in some cases. As cameras are illegal to have in certain private areas, management have to work around that security issue.

Ever notice that some places also have blue fluorescent lights, this is to make life awkward too in the taking of drugs and shooting up in toilets. The lights in toilets make it harder for a druggie to see veins, etc.
Busaras Bus station for example, had to get the lights in for this alone. The situation had gotten so bad.

CoachBoone

Dont Bother me in the slightest. Anyone Ive ever come across has been in good form and Id always stop and have a talk with. Speaking of which, I learned all about Biafra from one too, see....educational and sweet smelling.

You'd have 20 cents bounced off your head if you tried giving a toilet attendant in Ireland 20 Cent!

Will still burn your skin when bacteria convert it to ammonia. (that's what nappy rash is)

Anyone noticed that it's only Nigerians working in these toilets? Blimey!
Plus i wonder if they are legal in the state?

Anyone watch that RTE program about exploiting foreign workers last night?

I've met a Ugandan working in one. (Or should that be an Ugandan?)

Yeah - it was brilliant. I picked up loads of tips.

Dinter

I love them.

I feel like a mighty whitey when they coweringly offer me aftershave and depserately try to dry my hands with their eyes averted.

It really bucks up my self confidence before I go back to the bar.

MIN2511

Hehehehhe...

Yeah Ugandan is right...

Ah you picked up tips? So did i!!!!


Only joking, your one was in bits at the end.. Felt so sorry for her

Aidric

If they incorporated cleaning your dirty hole in to their job spec I'd have a more favourable outlook on them. As it is they just make me feel guilty for leaving without washing my hands.

The club I used to work in sacked the guy in the jacks because it turned out he was dealing coke. And when I say "sacked" I mean they asked him to stop coming to the club. Apparently a lot of these guys just arrive at clubs and set up shop in the jacks. Club owners don't give a toss because it means they don't have to pay their own staff to keep the jacks clean.
My only problem with them is that they make a lot more money in a week than you would actually think and they don't pay tax as they aren't even employed.

Hellm0

I don't mind them so much when they actually put in the effort like having gum, aftershave, mint etc but when it's just some dude on his bluetooth headset yackin' away to whomever whilst mindlessly handing me a single sheet of kitchen roll well...I just don't like that.

I think you'll find a lot of places charge the attendants to allow them to work there.

rgt320q

I like them. A lot of them are pretty sound, often have the good bit of chit chat with them. I usually just give the chap whatever change I have in me pocket at the end of the night rather than tipping each time I go for a slash.

Chlamydia

I don't mind the whole tipping them side of things, I just feel uncomfortable when people wait on me, personally I feel unnerved.

Speaking of uncomfortable, what's with the username? You're not coolsmileygirls alt account perchance?

GhostInTheRuins

I always think it's halarious when you're in a dirty kip like eamonn dorans and they have one of these guys in the toilets. I don't think I've ever given them money (Not while sober anyway)

Tails142

I was in a Dublin club there recently, cant think of the name of it, used to be called Mono years ago. Was going to the jacks during the night as you do, and washing my own hands, taking a piece of paper off the guy, throwing it in the bin and walking out.

On my third trip to the jacks as I was finishing up and walking over to the sink, the 'toilet attendant' says to some other guy, "Thank you for the tip, this guy has been coming in all night and hasnt given me any money", and gestures at me.

The fookin cheek of it! As I was quite blathered at this stage and far more cheeky than I normally would be, I said to your man, "A tip!?!", and he says, "I dont get paid", so I say, "I'll give ya a tip, get a bleedin' union!!" and headed out. Was afraid to go to the jacks for the rest of the night so headed home about a half hour later. Bleedin cheek of it, I generally do tip 50 cents or so but for whatever reason decided I wasnt gonna tip that night, maybe because the pints were €5.60 and I figured I could take a piss for free.

Nothin worse than sticking your hand in your pocket and pulling out a 2 euro when those cnuts are waiting for ya to pay up.

On principle now I never tip them, no point in encouraging that behaviour. Think I remember ages ago using some fellas aftershave, might have been in Q bar and then trying to walk away and the fella that time grabbed me by the arm till I tipped him, not too sure on the details of that one as I was fairly rat arsed at the time but there ya are.

pierrot

i hate it. i dont think anybody gets anything out of it, so i dont see why its there. i am capable of turning on the tap myself ffs!

Stercus Accidit

Pissing is free, I don't want aftershave, I have some at home that wasnt 2€ a spray either.

I can barely imagine the money these lads pull in in the 3 hours or so they "work".

Screw all these unregulated chancers in bars clubs begging outside etc. they are all chancers making more than an honest worker would.

Fuck 'em.

Sea Sharp

"If you want to get some pussy freshen up, if you....... etc."

They annoy me. They nearly make you not want to wash your hands just so as to avoid being harassed.

GhostInTheRuins

Oh yes, I remember now why I don't give them money. One night one of them accused me of robbing money from his tray, just started screaming "Give me back my 2 euro" at me while I was calmly drying my hands. Needless to say I didn't take a piss for the rest of the night.

Acacia

Why are there no toilet attendants in girls' bathrooms? Are men incapable of washing their own hands or something?

My guy friends are always complaining about them, you can't even go for a pish in the dingiest of dives without having to pay for it, it seems.

What? I've come across a fair amount and I can't stand them. I ignore them as much as I can. If they hand me a towel or something I'll thank them and then leave.
But none? there are plenty.

That's strange, I've never come across them.

You must go to fancier clubs than me.

ShooterSF

I never give them a penny. bollix to that I quite capable of drying my hands and if a club wants to be posh enough to have someone attend to my toiletry needs fair enough but I aint tipping.
What I love is a nightclub in my home town got renovated and spent a fortune on those fancy dyson power dryers you put your hands into but they go unused cause theres always an attendant there with his kitchen roll. :rolleyes:

Well they got rid of that video off Youtube pretty quickly. They're getting damn speedy these days so they are.

Funny thing was I was reading through this thread thinking 'I'm going to find that bit off the IT Crowd on Youtube and post it up'. You beat me to it but the forces of copyright control look like they got the better of both of us.

When will this madness end? :mad:

What can I say, great minds think alike.

I don't know what's wrong with that video though, it doesn't work when you try to play the embedded window but it does work when you follow the url link. strange.

R.D. aka MR.D

i generally don't like them as i feel uncomfortable with the whole concept of some one helping me dry my hands.

although one of them did kindly point out to me that i was bleeding excessivly from my foot one evening (stepped in glass and had forgotten between leaving the dancefloor and getting to he bathroom), and wrapped my foot up extremly well and wouldn't let me stand up or leave until one of my friends came to get me.

a doctor would have charged me 50e for the job she did on my foot!

Dead right there , at least a good squirt of an indoor plant sprayer up the cigar cutter and a swipe of a moist wipe might earn a tip and be of some use.

Otherwise waste of space.

You know, I've never seen any of them in my life. To heck with them and their begging ways.

Mint Sauce

i for one welcome our toilet atendent overlords

JC 2K3

I find it slightly unnerving that, without fail, any toilet attendant I've ever encountered has been black, and I'm beginning to subconsciously associate "toilet attendant" with "the black guy in the jacks" as a result..
