So, my company is located in a crappy building (we are moving out at the end of the month), and there are just two pairs restrooms here (for about 200 people). The door in one of the stalls in male restroom is broken (the latch doesn't work), so if you need #2 that leaves 1 stall only.

I enter the room for #1 and while standing there, I hear these click-click-click sounds. Then I see there's a guy sitting in there and just playing gameboy of whatever.

I don't know what to say...

Get your gameboy out and start playing head-to-head games with the wire running under the barrier.

I'd whack the door and say, "if you're done goofing off on company time I have to take an actual crap, asshole."

Well, depending on how serious the need was.

Was he using the restroom was in taking a dump? I don't see what is wrong with playing his gameboy if he was actually taking a dump. Its the same thing as not playing it. It wasn't really taking up company resources, was it? I mean if he wasn't playing he would have been doing the same thing, taking a dump. If he wasn't taking a dump and all his clothes were on and he was just sitting there like an idiot playing gameboy then I think it calls for some type of disciplinary action.

I didn't check whether he was actually taking a dump or not. But the whole idea of playing the gameboy in the restroom... Man.. I mean, 'cmon, if you want to play it - just step outside onto the parking lot with the nice weather. We have tables set up for people to have lunch there. Noone's going to say anything...

Up-up-left-left-A-B-A-B powers up your dump to 300%. It's a pretty big boost. That's probably what he was up to in there...

Sure beats reading. I remember just leaving my Game Gear in the bathroom back in the day.

He was probably playing his cellphone. Alot of Cellphones have games, you know. I have Tetris on my and often find myself racking up points in a Tetris game while make'n gravy.

he could be playing with something much worse and the clicking sounds might be much worse sounding moans.

haha. I used to do that all the time.

I worked as a file clerk a few years ago. The job was easy, and no one really cared what I did all day, as long as I wasn't obviously goofing off and the filing got done.

I didn't have a computer, so whenever I'd get really bored, I'd sneak off for 30 minutes or so and play gameboy in the bathroom on an empty floor (office was in one of those office-park places... we occupied one floor of the building, but there were a few empty floors above us).

i never understood the whole do things while you dump thing. i mean damn, how long does it take you guys? especially since you can't wipe and do that stuff at the same time, so apparently it's just the crapping that takes so long. drink some metamusil or something, damn.

reading in the toilet provides a good excuse to get away from work for a few minutes. I don't have the time to do it in my current job (free time to run to the bathroom is seldom in itself, and usually involves me literally running there and back), but in college, just about any personal reading that I did was done in the bathroom (anywehere else, I'd feel guilty for not reading school-related materials).
