Coloured guys/gals in Toilets

Eircom_Sucks

not a racist thread and please dont post any racist comments

my beef is with the guys who are in the toilets with the counter full of deodrants , aftershave etc

how do you personally feel about it , i hate it

i wash my hands after going the toilet and because i dont want the deodrant or aftershave they look at you as if your a dirtbag

to me it may aswell be beggers at the bank machines , u feel so aukward

Cookie_Monster

they especially don't like it if you piss on them instead of a urinal

Jesus Wept

lol@coloured.

El Weirdo

Coloured? Is it the fifties?

OutlawPete

Everyone is "coloured".

I presume you mean; black people.

Anyway, it bugs the fcuk out of me that they are there and I cringe for them.

I respect them for doing it, but wish that all establishments would stop this practice, there is NO need for it whatsoever.

I can turn on taps myself thanks very much.

I avoid these places. Black mark against a pub in my book.

It pisses me off that someone expects money because they hand you a tissue to dry your hands. Move your ass out of the way of the hand dryer please.....

kjl

They seem to drive you to bad grammar

Think a mod should ammend the thread title, because it is actually boardering on racism.

I personally hate them, they stare at you while you was your hands... and no thanks i can dry my own hands, i dont need you to press the button for me.

In fact some of them switch off the hand dryers at the switch. I always switch it back on, it drives them mad.

It's amazing this creepy practice didn't die out with the so-called Celtic Tiger. I don't feel awkward about not tipping them. You are entitled to wash and dry your hands without paying for it.

kjl

Simple solution, do what I do.

Take all their products, gum, sweets, aftershave and then just say you don't have any change but you will get them later.

Jesus why is every post on this site populated with uselss posts by people pointing out peoples grammar and spelling. GET A LIFE

Who still uses the word 'coloured'? Actually heard the BF's parents use it the other week and had to bite my tongue. It sounds ridiculous. How do people still think it's the PC term?

Anyone remember that 'Blacks in the Jacks' article in the Slate. Legend.

So is every toilet attendant in the country black then?

I don't like them either, but I tip them once for a quiet life, and then I ignore them thereafter.

Is that the one where they quoted Samantha Mumba saying that it is where they belong?

You should have a comma after Jesus, "." should also be a "?" as you are asking a question, and you've misspelled useless.

smash

has anyone ever bothered putting in a complaint with a venue about this practice?

Lock it up :D:D:D:D:D

My name is URL

They're usually fairly sound in my experience

but that's got nothing to do with it really...

Badly titled thread is badly titled and doomed to fail.


I will take this opportunity to remind some people of this particular section of the charter.

Thanks


Grammar nazis not welcome
Not everybody is as perfect as you are. Some people have learning difficulties. Some people are dyslexic. Some people are stupid and finally some people just don't care about their spelling and grammar. It's not your job to police them. If a post is illegible, contains excessive text speak or lacks paragraphs/punctuation etc., you may point it out nicely. Once. If someone has already done so, leave it alone.

If someone is an established user and their spelling/grammar is not great, they have probably had it brought to their attention many times before. There is no need to highlight it again.

Feel free to report any posts that may need moderator attention.
