I've heard of shit like that before. I'm 99% sure that are the people who own the factory skimped on things like proper plumbing and are forcing these workers to put their soiled waste paper in the garbage because it would back up the toilets I bet half those workers are illegal so they can't protest the shitty conditions otherwise they lose their job (while the people you consulted are making off with highway robbery from cut health costs and dodgy ethical codes) |

I know several actual legal American citizens who work there. They tell me the same thing. They never flush and they throw it on the floor or in the wastebasket. People are retiring early because they can't put up with it. They're afraid to use the bathroom. Management will do nothing about it because the perps are in the 'protected class' and are afraid of 'disparate impact' law suits. |

No lie! My sister went to China and saw that first hand. She said she was glad to get back to civilization here, lol! She said the traffic would be going by and there was some man right out there next to the road using the bathroom. lol! I'm sorry but hell at least build a damn decent plumbing and sewage facility to handle this. 100,000 sperm and you were the fastest? LMAO! Straight jackets are on the left. Meds are on the table. And if you hurry, you might be able to get into our group therapy session for special people. |

If the bin is full of tissue, I assume mine should go with it. If it's not I flush everything. If there's nothing but a shower hose next to the toilet trench, I assume it has a purpose lol. Now my question is: when you get to the toilet that has nothing but a few wash clothes hanging around and no tissue at all to be seen, what are you supposed to do? Is there like a "guest cloth"? Were you supposed to bring your own? Do you share? O_o Helium. [link to www.youtube.com] |

We have multiple toilets in our homes, we demand every store have a toilet, all hotel rooms have a private bathroom. Every one of these places have roll after roll of toilet paper, a modern plumbing system, and a way to wash/dry your hands afterwards. I remember the first time I stayed in Europe and I was like "WTF!! Where is the toilet in this hotel room!!!". I went to ask and someone staying there said it was just up the hall, but the shower was in use. Sick and disgusting. |

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 14408911 07/01/2012 09:30 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | A travel site for Central America does state that since the plumbing is different in those countries, you are not supposed to flush the toilet paper when you use their facilities. So then when those natives come to our country, they are probably still under the impression that they should not flush toilet paper. Old habits die hard, just like you would find it hard to remember NOT to flush the toilet paper if you were in those countries. |

| thetrickybigguy say hello to my little friend... User ID: 18915309 07/01/2012 11:07 AM ![]() Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | As a traveling production consultant, I'm in contact with lots of personalities and cultures all the time. Quoting: Stinky shoes 1377396 In one Texas factory that I visited, most of the labor force is Mexican, Guatemalan, Salvadorean, etc... When using the restroom facilities, I noticed a big plastic waste container next to every toilet -- stuffed to the top with soiled toilet paper. Though disgusting and putrid to look at, I figured that the sewer lines must be backed up at that factory and tried to be understandable. However, I was told later that this was not the case, and "that's just the employee's culture, since they don't have plumbing where they come from". Really? WTF? This was an American factory. How is that allowed? The rest of the facility was vibrantly clean, modern, and very well decorated. The restrooms were totally filthy and disgusting. I actually felt like I needed a shower when I left that place. some beaners don't even use a toilet....
