Restaurants and toilets

Have you ever wondered why restaurants have toilets that require you to use your hands after you have washed your hands to open doors. Especially eating places that have food that require you to use your hands.

It really bugs me.

I generally wait until somebody comes in. I had to wait 3 days once.
 
I have never understood why they don't make the doors open outwards. If on a closer ( most will be due to fire regs) then you could push it open with your foot. Or back out.
At work we still have paper towels so I always hang on to a bit for the handle

Mind you, I was taught not to **** on my hands

I'm a grubby builder with a gut like an ox. We often eat with filthy hands and filth everywhere. I have lost count of the amount of times I have rodded drains and have had the contents splash onto my face and lips.

Man up.
 
Funny. I have done the same.. Or wash my hands until the fella next to me goes first

Yeah, Im not OCD or ultra hygenic, It just seems a waste of time washing hands only to put my hand on a handle of a million germs.

Not much risk of anything to do with toilets, quite a bit of risk of cold germs or flu virus

I have this horribly accurate 6th sense of mine that is screaming to me that you are that brickie who thoroughly enjoyed the pie, chips & gravy I paid for while totally oblivious to fact that everyone on site thinks you're an arseole & several of your workmates 'doctored' your pie with their poo.

Yes, Ive worked many a time in those conditions on site -that never bothers me. the open-in pub toilet doors does though.
 
Saw an article recently that said the door handles of gents toilets have lots more bacteria on them compared to the ladies. Ladies are more likely to wash their hands, apparently. And there are likely to be more germs on the handles than on the toilet seats.

So yes, I always avoid touching the handle on the way out after washing my hands. My tip is to reach up and push the arms of the door closer at the top of the door in the direction away from the hinges. This causes the door to open a few inches and you can grab the edge of the door, not the handle.

Another tip is don't use the khazi in Nausey's gaff.

Also - was in the bogs at a restaurant few years ago. Chef came straight out of the cubicle after doing a Donald Trump - straight out the door. No washing. Put me right off.

Just put a bit of bog roll in your pocket then use it to cover the door handle on you way out.

Thing that I don't get is places that have sensor flushes in the lock ups for hygiene reasons but then have to unlock the door to get out the cubicle. What's the point of that?

It's my girls two. I say to them wash your hands and don't touch. Anything until you get back to the table
 
I'm wondering if any of you fellas actually gets as far as taking your bio hazard suits off, for sex with your missus/girlfriend/partner? There are all kinds of yukky fluids to swap you know.:sneaky:
