Dealing with the rantings of your crazy boss or overzealous receptionist is one thing, but what do you do when your office’s resident passive-aggressive note-leaver doesn’t even work there? Casey in San Diego (a.k.a. RunBarbara) says that’s the situation she’s found herself in at her job.
The offender, Sandra, “has met me a total of twice, both times for less than a minute,” Casey says. Yet for some reason, when Sandra (the aunt of the owner) stops by the office once a week to water the plants and drop off supplies, “she leaves these strange notes EVERYWHERE — and she almost always directs questions about said notes to me,” Casey says. “I often have no idea she posts these notes until someone asks me about the odd directions in them.”
Below, a small sampling of Sandra’s delightfully bizarrre directives. (Just click on the photos to enlarge.)
I’d like to think this note was posted immediately following the “potluck”…

So, is Casey in Human Resources your full name?
Also, what do you do if your “diarrhea” is a bigger job than your “throw up”? May you then “throw up” in the toilet and “shit” in the garbage can?

I’d like to raise a bit of concern at the fact that bathroom cleanliness and pot lucks followed each other so closely into this woman’s stream of consciousness. Somewhere in that connection lies the solution to the “big job” puke sessions – I’m almost sure of it.
To her credit, last time I puked up “Mongolia” ribs, hats and leftover birthday cake, it was a three-bagger episode that I would not subject to any delicate lady toilet so THX Sandra does have a point…

I just spent 10 minutes trying to a find link to this episode of Oprah I saw a long time ago.
I’ll just have to explain it…
There was this housewife who had bulimia and instead of throwing up in the toilet like the rest of us skinny bitches she threw up in clear trash bags and saved them at the back of her closet for garbage day. Then she would lug them outside and leave them for the garbage man to pick up.
At the time I was so confused, if she really wanted to hide it from her family why not just puke in the toilet and flush.
Now my confusion is no longer… her pipes couldn’t handle the big jobs!
Thank you PAN.

My favorite sentence ends, “please respect that women are scientificaly (sic) proven to be cleaner and do not use our bathroom if you are men.” By failing to punctuate, she implies that women are scientifically (this is the proper spelling) proven not to use RB’s office bathroom. Or maybe they only don’t use it if I am a man, which I am. Mind-boggling…

How does she know “ladies” are throwing up in the bathroom? Does she hide out and listen? (Because I can’t imagine even “old pipes” that could handle a shit but not puke.) Who the hell ever heard of bagging up puke to throw out in the garbage when you have a toilet right there? And how often do the ladies in this office throw up, anyway? Maybe the potlucks are to blame!
What a complete whack-o! If she doesn’t work there, then wtf????? However, the entertainment value of these notes is immense, as long as you aren’t Casey in Human Resources.

These notes re just too full of gems.
Hey, it’s scientifically proven that if you don’t bring food to potlucks, you’re not supposed to eat, and if you don’t eat, you’re not allowed to throw up in the toilet, either.
(p.s. if a pile of puke is a big job for the pipes then how does it handle MENS poop)?

“Attention employees, there is a potluck in the ladies room on Friday. Please don’t eat any food because I don’t want to buy more. Also if your a mens please do not use the ladies room, you’re messy, hold it all the way down the elevator and ask for a key to the locked men room. Thank you.
Thanx,
HR
PS. Throwing up is private that’s why we don’t want mens in the restroom. Please throw your throw up out in the dumpsters outside. Your fat-asses keep puking too much for the toilets to handle. It’s ok to throw up in the trash can and get it all over the floor. “

I love them… but there is a nagging thought in the back of my mind that they are a bit too good.
Anyway, I want to know why the bathroom for the mens is kept locked.
If a mens has an “emergency” “throw up” or “big job” situation and runs to the toilets to find it locked should he:
a) Quickly pop next door
b) Run to human resources to find the keymaster, run back and do his most private business
b) Run to human resourses and shit or puke in Casey’s trash can?

I also wonder, since THX SANDRA uses the qualifier “IN THIS BATHROOM” if employees are permitted to “THROW UP” those “BIG JOBS” into the toilets in the locked downstairs bathroom, after obtaining the key from Casey in Human Resources and being told where to go, of course.

I’m still trying to figure out why in the world she segued from “don’t use our bathroom if you are men” to “there’s a potluck on Friday” in that first one. WTF? Talk about an appetite-killer. She’d better keep a very close eye on just what those nasty mens are bringing to said potluck now. Karma is a you-know-what, Sandra. You may be digging into a steaming bowl of Big Job Throw Up Stew on Friday… and you’ll only have yourself to blame.

One question for Sandra, though… do you segregate your bathrooms at home? I mean, if you can’t stomach the idea of mens being in the space where you do your private business and things that are private to ladies, I can only conclude that you don’t let them use your sacred powder room at home, either. (Am I overthinking this? Has Crazy Sandra gotten into my head? Into all our heads? Was that her evil plan all along?)
Casey/RunBarbara, I commend you for not only sharing these gems, but managing to go to work every day without clocking this loon.

Sandra is such a total bitch and clueless asshole! If I worked with her I’d be scheming on ways to get her ass fired out of there. Jeez! I hate the woman!
To call her a cunt is an insult to cunts. I LOVE cunts. They are the loveliest part of a woman. Let’s call her a bitch or something.
I think I’d be importing puke and slathering it around the ladies room as a gift to her. I’d be having airline vomit bags imprinted with her name and distribute them to all.
I’d be having an invitation only staff party held in the men’s room and leave her out as being too insanitary or too insane.

I LOVE that women are apparently scientifically proven to be cleaner than men. When I was a teenager working retail, I had to clean bathrooms as a part of the job, and the men’s was never a deal while the women’s room was always, ALWAYS disgusting. From nasty poo all up the toilet to tampons and pads not always making it into the disposal box intended for them, the women’s room was always nasty. I kind of want to meet this woman and betch slap her.

I’d like to know what scientific survey this woman is speaking of. Because I have seen some pretty horrendous women’s bathrooms.
And maybe if she wasn’t throwing so many “Mongolia” potluck dinners, people wouldn’t be puking and shitting all over the place, precipitating the supposed need for that last note. And how does she know that people are barfing in the toilets anyway? Did Roto-Rooter call her and tell her they found chunks in the plumbing?

I have a couple of questions:
If you “throw up” in the trash can in the bathroom, take out the bag and dispose of it down-stairs in the “facilities” dumpster (whatever a “facilities” dumpster is), what is the next lady supposed to do? She obviously cannot throw up in the toilet since the pipes can’t handle “big jobs”, but now there is no bag in the trash can so she can’t throw up there either. Can you get a new trash bag from Casey in Human Resources for $5 or do you need to use your “Mongolia BBQ” hats?
And I have to say, the whole dentist clip art thingy has me totally creeped out. What does THX SANDRA think a dentist has to do with all of this? Maybe he has the extra trash bags!

This lady (Sandra) is psychotic! I also work with women like this. And every time they try to tell me what to do, as a man I do exactly the opposite! I even try to use the ladies room on purpose now. Why? Because the women at my work put notes similar to the one above up on the women bathroom. Yet, somehow these same women were still always in the men’s room ALL THE TIME. But that was OK you see. Now I just use the woman’s room first, makes my job more fun and stresses the hell out of some! It’s a beautiful day.

Apparently these problems are escalating from this diabetic/dieting potluck. Potluck food= guys cloggin up the womens bathroom pipes with some serious dueces and womens severe bulimia.
