Bandanna tied around my head, knife in my teeth, and flashlight resting atop an ear, no problemo.
It cleans my kerchief and washes the blood off my knife, all with good lighting.
Thanks for that, Bob. It almost wiped out the mental image I had of how you'd do it.

You mean there's a different way to the foot method?
I see people go into a stall to make a deposit to the general fund, and they take a coffee and donut with them, and the sports pages.

And then camp out for a while.

I don't get it.

A dirty nasty place, made more so by the high volume (remember, about 40,000 people work there), and these Mensa members are treating it like a coffee break.

Yuk.

I miss seeing those trucks.
For ABF trucks I long ago came up with a meaning for the letters.
Can't post all of them here, but the AB was interchangeable with Ain't Been or Already Been.
I like mine better than Arkansas Best Freight.

The commodes at the Big Shed only have seats, no lids.

And most of the bathrooms are on the mezzanine level, so they make you work when it is time to go. You have to climb stairs to get there, and then take the stairs back to the shop floor.

There are a few restrooms that are either on the main floor, or can be accessed by elevator, for those who have a handicap or disability.
I was describing those shipped out the door and flown away.

I avoid taking anything into one of those places unless absolutely unavoidable. Let alone thinking of eating in there. Still I suppose those people would be less obese if they forewent that time of gutsing and guzzling.

We aren’t allowed to use those. A person can be fired for using them.

Back in the days before he discovered how to relax sitting idly by watching a smoker do it's magic.
