I had a guy on my crew years ago who every morning would take a 1-2hr stroll to find his spot, well.......I start getting screamed at for lack of production(2-man bucket), so I get a dry wall bucket, a toilet seat, & fab up a back of the truck porta john.......even had a gallon of water to put in before the drop.

So then I get yelled at for not taken the guy to a public restroom & BTW, companies have no humor when you put toilet seats & hardware on the expense sheet!!


LXT........

1 to 2 hours? He must of been up to something else.
BUT in the defense of odd BM disciplines and techiniques I must say that I would think its the employers responsiblity to make sure that his crew has a place to take a dump.
My place? On my sparkling clean MOEN tawlet, the one with the air cushion seat and the stack of catalouges. Anywhere else just won't do, ceptin in dire circumstance AND the stories are good BUT habituall pooping on the job is something that needs to stop. Don't these guys have plumbing where they live?
 
just drop one in the paper bag the ya got from the liquor store and toss it under the seat of the bosses truck.:laugh:
 
All this time I've been thinking about buying a $50,000 RV for its bathroom if in a traffic jam. Now I'm goin to invest in an old chip truck.
 
enjoy that control while you still can, young fella. there will come a day when you can no longer trust a fart.

:hmm3grin2orange: My buddy you have arrived that is the mark of
experiance, I found that changing my diet helped a great deal and
water instead of six sodas per day! When you start to age you learn
healthy eating habits or else! I now only have that problem on occasions.
I always was fearful of catching something drinking after some of the
boys my last employer hired so drank coke and now work for myself
and my wife is there, so I feel I can trust her to not give me anything.
Before ya start calling me names I don't understand or can spell like,
hypochondriac or the like, remember these men would take off to go
to the doctor for warts etc on their you know and I don't and don't
want to know:laugh:
 
well, i dont really trust my farts sometimes.......

i guess that means im old now......

is there a club i have to join, or a contract i need to sign for this?
 
The diet now consists of fruit and water some crackers occasionally
staying away from fast food joints and then my wifes cooking at night!
I have definitely felt better since this change.

I hear ya......say I've given some thought to your canopy cannonballs.....kinda gives a whole new meaning to the acronym D.Z. now doesn't it.
 
I have no qualms about asking the homeowner, I mean it's better than marking your territory everywhere you work! But I have also been a climber and mountaineer since childhood, so the emergency Nalgege pee bottle goes everywhere! :clap:
