Why don't mexicans flush toilet paper down the commode? | |
| Anonymous Coward User ID: 2122560 07/27/2012 09:12 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | My Bro IL often travels to remote areas of India and says open trenches of sewage in the streets are common. Also if you can find a public toilet there will be a stick with a sponge on it sitting in a bucket of ugly water but no paper. He carries wet-wipes everywhere. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 8668963 |

All you have to do is get the system pumped out every 4 years or so. I would not go to their house if I could not flush the toilet paper. That is sick and disgusting. |
| Anonymous Coward User ID: 15751650 07/27/2012 09:16 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | ughhh I used to be friends with a girl who did that in her house. Trouble is we live in Toronto and she lived in a quite well off part of town so I never understood why, at her house, we were not allowed to flush toilet paper down! She most definitely did NOT have a septic tank, and she was not mexican! She was italian. I did it once because I had my period and did not want people at the party staring at my blood in the wastebasket and she pretty much kicked me out of her house. Too weird |

It's most likely not the factory's fault, so no need to be so RUDE. In Mexico and Guatemala and other southern nations, plumbing is not what it should be, as are many other things. Toilet paper clogs the septic system where they come from. I've witnessed it many times and in many different places in New York with southern immigrants. They just don't flush the paper. |

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. Quoting: hawk8414 ![]() ![]() |

After every single event we held there would be piles of used tp on the floor and shit in the urinals. It was utterly disgusting. So glad that place shut down. I lost all respect I had for hispanics working there. But I did grow to appreciate blacks much more. At least they did not shit in the urinals.

| zadok User ID: 1575030 12/05/2012 01:40 PM ![]() 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. At least they don't use their hand like Obama! That's what Muslims do... |

Mexico doesn't have plumbing in a lot of places and that is how they do. I worked at a hotel with mexican employees and the toilet always had a trash can full of shitty paper and it smelled like shit in the bathroom. FUCKING DISGUSTING. It should take 5 minutes for those fucking people to realize we have flushing toilets in America, and they can flush their shit paper. They are fucking hardheaded morons. |
