    I know this was at a Budweiser and I'm pretty sure at the Van Nuys plant,but its been a few years. Ya know how ya gots to drop the empty in one lot then go down the street for the load?
    Well,this mighta been before the drop lot they got now...but the one thing I remember clear as a bell is...the security guard's office was IN THE MEN'S ROOM!!
    I apologized to him profusely cuz I couldn't stop laughing about him having to guard the poop! He was a good sport and said he could almost tell what the drivers were eating by the crappy smell they left behind...:biggrin_2556:

    Take a dump in a bag, then call the trash company and health board that there is feces in the trash at the place.

    See what happens then.

    I was just there recently. I thought they had an operational facility. I'm trying to remember if that was the unisex bathroom with the door that doesn't lock. I remember hanging a sign on a door handle that I wrote on toilet paper to let others know it was in use. Can't remember for sure where it was though.

    Drivers need to pick up the phone and turn these companies in. Its part of the health safety codes. If no one turns them in it won't change. Drivers like to sit and wine and cry but refuse to help themselves. I have pulled away from the dock to drive to a restroom. And had my dispatch call the truck and I just explained to I had to use the restroom and the receiver would not let me so I disconnected from the silo and was heading back to a gas station. Miracles of miracle all of a sudden this plant that said they did not have a restroom found one.

    I don't necessarily disagree with the actions of the other drivers, but there are other ways of handling it sometimes.

    Who you going to call? Everyone at the state and even my dispatcher did not care.

    On the side of the building where the docks are, there are no doors. Only lights.

    They are the state office I called along with the county office.

    They stated it was the right of the business owner.

    Okay 1st off nothing will stop "the call of nature" you can't provide a bathroom? I'm pretty sure I can find a bush that's looking a little dehydrated. I can hold my #2 a while.

    As far as no public restrooms in retail, I've never had a place refuse if I've asked politely. I remember as a child being lead by my mother and a store manager all the way to the deep dark recesses of a supermarket to "go potty", all mom had to do was ask.

    When I used to have a retail shop, we had to modify our only toilet to be ADA compliant, even though it was for employees only and the resulting mods took up a quarter of our usable backroom storage. (yes we let customers use it, except for one ocassion where a guy started comming in once a week to use the loo. He'd come in the back door, use the bathroom and leave, never bought anything. Never figured out where he was comming from and he wasn't homeless or anything. Just came and "went". Boss finally asked him to not do it anymore.)

    What I want to know is, I can understand spraying wide, but how do you get #### on the walls? nermind,,, I don't WANT to know! some sloppy MOFO's out there.
