    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.

    O lord, a crappy subject! :D

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

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

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

    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.

    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.

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

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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)
