Toilet Talk

November 17, 2017 by The Yak Leave a Comment

Dear Yak,

  • I’m at work.
  • I head for the toilets.
  • An annoying colleague comes in right behind me and enters the cubicle next to mine.
  • She proceeds to chat to me through the wall while we’re both sitting there attending to business. She doesn’t seem to notice my unwillingness to engage her.
  • To make matters worse, I have Irritable Bowel Syndrome, so there are some… sound effects.
  • It’s embarrassing. It’s not the first time she’s done this.
  • What can I do?

Yours sincerely,

Toilet Talk

Dear Toilet Talk,

To be honest you sound like a bit of a snob.

The workplace has a very defined hierarchical pecking order, but this doesn’t apply in the toilets. Sitting with your pants around your ankles is a great leveller. Your colleague is clearly just trying to reach out to you. Just be thankful that it’s through the toilet wall, rather than under it. That’d be weird.

Personally, I find your use of dot points far more disturbing than your chatty colleague’s behaviour.

Hope this helps.

With kind regards,

The Yak
