Please Flush it!

So about a month ago I walked into the a stall in the bathroom at work only to find a really nasty used tampon in the toilet. I did what anyone else would do at that point… promptly turn around to go to another stall.  Unfortunately all the other stalls were taken and I really had to ‘GO’, so I reluctantly turned back into the stall closed the door behind me and flushed the toilet with my foot. I watched in disgust as the little red missile swirled around and down the chute. Afterwards, I walked back to my desk stopping at Marsha’s desk to tell her about my horrifying experience in the bathroom.

Fast forward to last Friday. Once again I walked into the bathroom… all but one stall was occupied. I walked in and what did I see? Another nasty used tampon floating in the toilet. It was like the one I had flushed earlier had come back to taunt me some more.  So once again I had to flush it. Did my business and headed back to my desk. Once again stopping at Marsha’s desk:

Me: Marsha, why don’t people flush their freaking tampons down the toilet???

Marsha: That happened to you again? That seems to happen to you a lot…

Me: Yeah! … like once a month!…

Ladies… please make sure your tampons go down the chute!
