Boys Bathroom

 One of the thing I'm responsible for doing at my job is cleaning bathrooms. Usually this isn't too bad. Go in, spray everything down, wipe it all off, and done. It only takes like 5 minutes for me to get both the boys and the girls restrooms cleaned up. And of course I do this everyday. And sometimes, when I walk into the boys bathroom, I can't help but wonder just what in the hell they do in there.
  With winter being here, we salt our sidewalks and parking lots. Its great at melting off the snow and ice and such, but it also tracks into the store on people's shoes leaving white footprints all over the place. Well, one night I was following some of these footprints, and they went into the boys bathroom. So I open the door so I can mop them all up, and while I'm looking at them, I notice something... The footprints go directly to the garbage, and thats it. They didn't turn towards the toilet or the urinal, they just faced into the corner with the garbage can. But I just dismissed the oddity of it, mopped them up, and continued on my way.
  The next night, when it came to mop, there I was, mopping up footprints again. Sure enough, they lead to the boys bathroom. Yet again, they don't go to the toilet or the urinal, they stopped in about the middle of the room. By this time, I couldn't help but wonder why none of the footprints actually approached either of the main components of the bathroom. So I decided I would watch for footprints for the next little while, just to see if I ever had a set that actually went up to the toilet/urinal. For the next week, there was only one night that they actually approached the toilet. I just can't help but wonder just what the hell they were doing in the bathroom. I'll admit, when I think of this, I get this mental picture of all the guys that go in there trying to piss into the toilet/urninal from across the room.
  We have these little things that we put down into the hole of the urinal. Its just a cleaner thing, kinda like the toilet bowl cleaners that you can hook onto the rim of your toilet. Only this one goes down in the urinal hole. Its got a round center, with little holes all the way around it filled with the blue cleaner, and a kind of triangular outside that keeps it from going down the drain or wiggling out of place. We have to change these about once every two months of so, depending on the number of times that the urinal gets flushed.
 Well one night, I went in to clean the bathroom, and the inside of the urinal was blue. Some individual (I'm going to have to assume that it was a small child) had dug their fingers into the blue cleaning stuff in the little holes, and thrown it all over the inside of the urinal. I looked at it for a moment, went and got my coworkers so that they could enjoy the "Wtf?!?" experience, and then proceeded to clean it. Or try to. I had kind of thought that if I sprayed it with our restroom cleaning spray and flushed the urinal, it would just kind of ooze down and into the drain. This was a very ineffective attempt. That blue stuff was stuck, it wasn't rinsing off, and it wasn't wiping off with a papertowel. I had to scrub it vigoriously with a damn toilet brush, and some of it was STILL stuck on there.
  I'm still assuming (and kind of hoping) that it was a little kid that did this. I have to wonder how well the blue stuff washed of his hands. But my main question was what in the hell would possess anybody (include a kid, unless under the age of 3) to put their fingers into the thing they all piss on and throw it all over the urinal. WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT?! EWWWW!
  And the other most interesting thing I've encountered in the boys bathroom was smell. We all know guys smell. Its just a fact. But sometimes it kind of amazes me just how much they can smell. I was went in to clean they boys bathroom recently and couldn't believe the smell. No, it wasn't a nasty shit smell, well not exactly. But you know when you go to the zoo, and you walk through the reptile house, that damp, humid, funky smell? Boys bathroom smell just like that. I opened the door, and my first thought was "Zoo". I have to ask, just how did that particular smell get created in a boys bathroom??

  Its things like these that make me seriously wonder what the hell men do in the bathroom. Women use the restroom almost twice as much as men (where I work at least) and yet, I never have the issues in the womens that I have in the men's room. How many things can men really be doing in there???
