I suppose Prudie has never had to walk through a puddle of piss to get to a urinal. We have someone in our office who pees on the floor, and it's disgusting and unsanitary. There's no way Pierre can avoid hitting the floor from two feet away. He's obviously got social problems that he inflicts on other people by peeing in the public space. Nobody should have to deal with this mess, and nobody should have to walk by a man who stands so far away from the urinal.

If it were me, I would tell him if he can't get closer to the urinal then he should use the toilet like a girl. If he has a problem with that, then I would go to HR or management. But it sounds like he is the kind of person who is doing it just to "piss" people off.

D

What?! You would go to HR about the way someone pees?

Listen to yourselves, people!!! HR would laugh you right out the room, unless they decided you were sexually harrassing the guy by watching him go to the bathroom. Good grief, find something real to complain about.

...I've worked in offices with guys who seem to pee everywhere but in the toilet and never cleaned it up. Never. If you wanted to use the toilet you had to clean off someone else's pee first, and I mean a lot of it. Disgusting. I posted a sign on the wall that
said "Your mother doesn't work here. If you pee on the seat clean it off." Didn't help.

why would these guys - men, i mean - have to involve management on something like this? Be men and deal with this guy straight up. be a man and tell him to stop pissing all over the place.

Some men have better control of where they aim than others. Maybe Pierre can urinate in his urinal from two feet away. I knew a guy who wrote "Merry Christmas" in the snow with his pee. Closest tracks were over four feet away from the perfectly written holiday greeting! "Stalled" can see this guy is better built than he is. Pierre could toss him around like a golf ball if confronted for standing a couple feet away from the urinal! He wanted Prudie to come up with the perfect phrase to 'tattle tale" to the boss about Pierre. His intimidated self should be glad Pierre isn't tapping his foot in the adjoining stall cause we all know who would be the 'beeyotch'... (LOL!)

:o)

come on, boys: easy solution: post a note at the urinals politely asking folks to be considerate of those around them, and not stand too far away while peeing

laminated, of course

if this guy ignores the sign, then you know that he's being a jerk and not just aloof, and then you have more solid evidence of what's really going on, etc.

no one should feel anxious about something as simple and necessary as peeing at work. This is not funny (ok, at first, yes it is, but) these problems are solved by communication, and in this case, careful communication. Are you really afraid that because he's a 'body-builder type' that he's gonig to beat you up if you say anything about his peeing habits?

come on, let's not be such prudes. we all pee, it's OK to talk about it, especially in a case like this one.
