In reply to:
there was a streak of doo-doo on the toilet seat. This is in the bathroom of a frickin' IT department
So that doesn't just happen where I work, then? I don't know whether I should be relieved or horrified that people in a whole other continent can't seem to manoeuvre their arse over the centre of a big porcelain bowl either!

The 'chewing gum in the urinal' thing happens with alarming regularity too. Not surprisingly, there is usually at least one urinal overflowing or one cubicle labelled 'Out of order' in any given week.
