A grown-arse adult had squatted and crapped in the middle of the floor. In summer. It half melted before we could get someone in to clean it up. No one has ever admitted responsibility." —sarahe43842ff2b 2 The Condom Conundrum "Last week at work, the cleaner (who took a picture to prove it) found a condom full of urine tied up like some freaking water balloon and placed in the bin visible for all to see in the men's bathroom!! WTAF is wrong with people!" —j4f1acbad0 3 The Bad Hair Day Tap to play GIF Tap to play GIF @bounce_TV / GIPHY / Via giphy.com "Someone threw away their wig in the office bathroom. It looked like a dead animal in the trash." —daniellem64 4 The Abstract Artist "Years ago at my job, there was a mysterious female that would paint some of the bathroom stalls with her faeces and sometimes her menstrual blood. I went to report it to HR and they had already received several complaints. Apparently, she had been doing this on different floors. She ended up leaving the job, and no one would ever tell me who it was." —EmpressLockness 5 The Menstrual Message Tap to play GIF Tap to play GIF 20th Century Fox Television / Giphy / Via giphy.com "A toilet bowl with a lot of period blood in it. Fair enough, it happens. Especially if your flow is heavy, it doesn’t always flush away first time. But when I had flushed and sat down, I saw a lovely sight stuck to the back of the door. A sanitary towel soaked with blood. And to think one of my colleagues had done that. Oh, I forgot to mention — I worked in a maternity unit, and only doctors, midwives, and assistants could get into that toilet." —wavesandwonder 6 The Poop Pathway "There was shit on the floor outside the door to the toilets. Inside the toilets, there was a trail of shit from a cubicle to a sink to a hair dryer, and then out the door." —isabelb2 7 The Shower Sitch "There is a mystery shitter in my office. Twice in the past six months, an actual human turd has been found on the floor of the women's toilets. Not only that, but in a meeting with our building manager, he reported that the SHOWERS in the basement of our building are getting clogged with human faeces." —rart4652 8 The Satisfying Squish Tap to play GIF Tap to play GIF @snl / Giphy / Via giphy.com "One of the cleaners in work complained about the gents' toilets. Someone had decided to defecate on the toilet seat and hinges of the lid, so when they proceeded to close the lid, all of the faeces squashed into the hinges. Safe to say they had to replace the toilet seat. They have also found faeces near the main door to the toilets." —RohzieLee 9 The Phantom Pooper "We had a phantom pooper who would dump a load and just leave it. There was no toilet roll left in the bowl, so we knew they didn't wipe." —Janner 10 The Poo Stew Tap to play GIF Tap to play GIF @southpark / Giphy / Via giphy.com "I used to clean a small office building a couple days a week while I was in college, and one day someone actually broke one of the toilets in the women's restroom and left a huge turd clogged in it. They told me they had to call in a plumber to fix the toilet, so don't try to clean it or anything until it's fixed. Which is completely understandable, except they waited about six months before calling a plumber. Not even joking. I couldn't even call one myself because I didn't actually work for the office. They just left the toilet clogged the whole time and kept the stall door shut with an 'Out of Order' sign on it. Sometimes I caught glimpses of the toilet between the stall cracks, and the whole inside of the bowl had turned black; it was absolutely horrid. Then one day I showed up for work and it was magically clean and fixed like nothing ever happened. Whoever had to deal with that, bless them. I'm just glad it wasn't me." —hvitur 11 The New Office Gesture "Our big corporate travel management company moved into a brand-new office built just for us. One day early on, we walked into the women's bathroom on our floor to see a used pad stuck on the far wall. Grown women, for crying out loud. I still can't fathom what would have possessed someone to do that." —k4c2ed0631 12 The Snot Rockets Tap to play GIF Tap to play GIF 20th Century Fox / Giphy / Via giphy.com "At a building I worked at once, they called all the gentlemen together for a meeting about the men's room. I'd never seen it, I'm a woman, but turns out multiple people were blowing snot rockets and hocking loogies onto the ceiling. THE CEILING. Apparently a large area was just covered in human mucus." —christieh4f1025174 13 The Toilet Snack "Once saw a pizza crust and open container of garlic butter on the back of the toilet like someone was eating and using the bathroom. Gross!" —hollynicolet2 14 The Pube Purge "Two or three times I have seen trimmed pubes on the floor. I mean, who does that??" —kiribaberuk 15 The Territory Marker Tap to play GIF Tap to play GIF BBC / Giphy / Via giphy.com "I didn’t personally see it, but it was brought to the attention of our 50-person-strong office that a male employee was peeing in the corner of a stall in the men’s bathroom — not the toilet or the urinal, the floor of the bathroom." —joannem4181e4380 16 Jill s Explosion "For a couple of years I worked in this small cute café, which was pretty quiet and didn't get that many customers but had a lot of regulars. One day, one of our customers, let's call her Jill, comes up and tells me she's had an accident in the loo. I think to myself, No problem, probably just loo roll blocking the toilet or something. So she wanders off and I get the plunger from the cupboard and go into the toilet. Lo and behold, there is not only shit smeared everywhere, but also blood. It was quite literally a shitstorm. It was all over the walls, the toilet; blood had been smeared across the mirror, and the toilet was blocked with the fattest shit I've ever seen. I walked out of the bathroom slowly, saw Jill sitting at the table, and all she did was smile and wave at me." —1998rleigh 17 The Office Pet "A WORM. A WORM IN THE TOILET BOWL. It was long and red, so i thought it was period blood, but then i saw it moving around clearly ALIVE, so i jetted out of that stall real quick. I looked it up later and it was likely a tubificid, and they typically live in colonies in sewage systems. No wonder the plumbing is so bad at my building." —ravenouslittlehoneybadger 18 The Pink-Eye Epidemic Tap to play GIF Tap to play GIF @southpark / Giphy / Via giphy.com "Our bathroom is single-user, so obviously I didn't see it, but every single time one coworker uses the toilet, they leave an entire shower of used, orange-brown, rolled-up toilet paper bits aaallll over the toilet, floor, and sink. They also don't wash their hands, so pink eye goes around our office regularly." —fiddleogold 19 The Lasagne Lover "An entire lasagna." –rachele47ba33f84 Want your story featured on BuzzFeed Follow the BuzzFeed Community on Facebook and Twitter Some submissions have been edited for length and/or clarity.
