Today, a little girl locked all the stalls in the girls' bathroom where I work and crawled under the doors. I then had to crawl around on the bathroom floor in order to unlock the doors. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I was using the restroom when a little girl tried to open my stall. It was locked, so she slid under the door and tried to have a conversation with me while I was pooping. FML
Today, I was in the bathroom at work. The lock on the stall door broke, and I couldn't open it. I was all alone and I started having a mini panic attack. After several minutes of frantically trying to fix the lock and hyperventilating, I realized I could just crawl under the door. FML
Today, I went to the bathroom in a mall. As I was in the stall, a woman tried to open it. I yelled out that's it was occupied but she kept shaking it to open it. It came up to the point where she had to crawl under the door to see that I was there. FML
Today, I went to take a piss in a public bathroom. Somehow, I managed to completely jam the lock. After minutes of trying to get myself out, I gave up and crawled under the stall, at which point someone walked in and was very surprised to see me on the floor. FML
Today, while changing my tampon in a public restroom, a toddler crawled under the door of my stall and asked what I was doing. I had to wait until I'd finished to open the door and let her out. FML
Today, my supervisor locked me in the women's bathroom as I was cleaning it. I heard the owner scolding him, so I waited for the door to open, thinking he got in trouble. It wasn't until I heard the front gate locking that I realized I'm staying the night in the bathroom. FML
Today, at work, I was on my break when I had to use the bathroom. I was on the toilet taking a dump when the door latch loosened and the door swung open. The little girl standing there took one look and screamed. Security busted in. My pants were still down. FML
Today, we had an emergency lockdown drill. The closest room to me was the bathroom, so I rushed in and went into one of the stalls like I was supposed to, only to find out that a girl in the stall next to me was shitting. And it didn't seem like she was going to be done anytime soon. FML
Today, as I went to the bathroom in a port-a-potty at a park, I forgot to lock the door. A little girl opens the door and then slams it right away. As she walked away I heard her say "no, there's a man in there". I'm a woman. FML
Today, I locked the door to our only bathroom so my two year old wouldn't get in and make a mess. I crapped my pants while trying to unlock it with the key that rests on the frame. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

That sucks. You should've told the parent to take care of her child's actions.

Well hey, at least you don't have to sweep that part of the floor now

You wouldn't have to if you were slightly smarter than the lock. I deal with this daily. I've never once had to crawl under.

How do you unlock it from the outside?

I don't understand how any bathroom can have stalls that don't have external keying for unlocking. I've seen them and I can't help but think that whoever thought those were a good idea needs to be slapped.

14 You could stand on a stepladder and use a stick / coat hanger to slide the latch over without climbing over or under the wall.

I don't know what public bathrooms in Canada are like, but here in the US 90% of the time the outside of the lock has a slot in it that you can fit a coin into to turn and unlock it from the outside. The other 10% of the time the stalls have a sliding bar lock and a magnet could in theory unlock those, though I don't travel around with a magnet so I haven't tested this theory...anyway, sucks you had to do that, hope the rest of your day was better!

I live in the US and I have never seen open-able locks like you're talking about. They sound like a great idea though.

Some bar style locks have indicators on them that can be used to unlock them.

Couldn't you open them with a screwdriver?

A lot of places have stalls that can't be opened from the outside.

This is one of the many reasons why I say the stalls should be extended to the floor.

Why didn't you just reach over it with a stick of some sort dummy?

What happened to kids these days?
NostalgiaFreak9 43
People who complain that kids these days are spoiled are surprisingly the ones who are old enough to raise these kids.

Nothing happened to kids these days. They're kids. The real questions should be what are the parents doing while their kids are wandering, locking stalls, crawling on public bathroom floors.

Yeah this has definitely been happening since bathroom doors had locks.

I remember doing that as a little kid
