Today, while at work, I went to unlock the washroom for a customer. Normally we don't allow customers to use the staff washrooms, so I was as surprised as the guy I found sitting on the toilet when I opened the door. FML

Same thing different taste
Patience
Today, I decided to use the disabled toilet in work to get a little extra privacy while I did my business. The cleaners who unlocked the door from the outside and barged in on me were nice and waited until I finished to apologize and explain there were complaints the door had been locked for days. FML
Today, I thought it'd be fun to kick open one of those unisex bathrooms in my workplace. I'm not sure who was more surprised, me or my boss who was in there taking a dump. FML
Today, I walked into the ladies' bathroom to find my male boss taking a dump with the stall door wide open. FML
Today, I had to use the restroom while at work. I had the choice of the stall with a broken lock, or the stall with a huge crack in the partition wall. Not two minutes after I sat down, I noticed someone peeking in. FML
Today, while at a fast food restaurant, I wanted to wash my hands. The restrooms were locked, so a cashier got the key and opened the men's restroom. This would have been fine if I wasn't a girl. FML
Today, while I was working a customer notified me that the men's restroom need some attention. Thinking that there was just a small mess, I walked into the restroom only to discover someone had taken a crap in the sink. Guess who got to clean it. FML
Brute force
Today, I went in the one-person bathroom at work to pee. Next thing I know, a woman forced the locked door open and walked in on me, because she didn't believe another person who said, "I think someone is in there." I'm reluctant to use that bathroom in the future. FML
Oh, hello there, don't mind me
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
Don't let the bedbugs bite!
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
I know what I'm doing
Today, I walked into a restroom at a restaurant, took one step inside, and realized it was the staff-only restroom. The manager was inside, staring at me like I was an alien. I just smiled and awkwardly walked out. FML

Isn't this why stores often have washrooms for the customers.

That and because if you don't you're an asshole

18- Well when I read washroom I thought of a room for washing clothes not a bathroom. Well until OP walked in on a guy on the toilet :p
MidnaLink 33
That, my dear would be a LAUNDRY room

What about a "powder room"? Not everyone is familiar with different terms.

To those who are obviously American, we call them public toilets, toilets, long drops, out houses, shitters, porcelain bus. "I need to go snap one off in the long drop, and afterwards I will wash the shit off my hands in the bathroom." A bathroom is where the shower, BATH - hence why it is called a bathroom and sink are. Yes washroom can in fact be a laundry where the washing is done. I hope I cleared some things up for those of you who prey on people who ask polite questions because they legitimately do not know.

While I'm sure some appreciate that you clarified the different words for toilet, I don't think the comment saying the people questioning the different phrases are "obviously Americans" was necessary.

I'm going to cry. That was funnier than most of the FMLs from today.

You could have tried knocking, OP:)
niallo 23
No one was supposed to be there, and OP had the key. Why woul she even Think of knocking.
mariab2898 13
I guess I just don't understand, because couldn't there have been another staff member in there? And they could have locked the door from the inside?
toaster123 11
yeah I've hard time understanding this fml too.
niallo 23
To my way of thinking, the staff bathroom must have had a door accessible to the public, hence the lock. When they opened the door and found a person there, I'm assuming there was only one toilet. This would explain one key and the shock of someone being in there when you have the key in your hand.

Staff bathrooms? Don't you have customer bathrooms instead of having to let customers in

OP probably works in a small convenience store which generally don't have public rest rooms. Which is probably the cause of all the public urination that occurs in my city.

I would be extremely weirded out... How'd he get in there in the first place? Dun dun dun...

Me know why! He ninja! teehee!
Welshite 39
You're just annoying. The whole "me know why" and "teehee" isn't cute. What's worse is that you wrote that for both of your comments on both FMLs. I refuse to believe you're 24 as stated in your profile. It's insulting to others of that generation.
missyfiona89 28
I know. I'm bored and it's hilarious how upset people can get over something so trivial.

This guy has some serious skills, taking a shit in secret is unheard of in public. Give this man an award.

Always knock first.

...When the door is already locked?

My guess is an employee left it open accidentally.
