Bathroom Moments

I have one complain being the only girl (with the addition of the receptionist) in the company. That is among 50-60 other guys.

We don't have girl toilet.. *sob*

In my building, we have one bathroom with two toilets side by side, and another toilet on the other end of the room. These are shared with the other 30 guys.

The first bathroom is a bit more private, which means there aren't so many people passing by. But everytime I go to that toilet, I pray so that nobody is in the other toilet. I would do my business really quick, and go away as soon as possible before anybody else coming.

I got pretty lucky, I don't meet people so often in this bathroom. But if I do, I'm not sure whether it's just me, but the moment becomes kind of awkward. Especially if, God forbids this happen again, both of us release ourselves in the same time, where you both can hear each other.

I would manage the timing smartly so that we wouldn't have to meet face. If I come first and am in the toilet, while the other guy comes after, I would either finish my thing very quickly and slip away before he goes out of his cubicle. Or I could stay a bit longer until he finishes his thing first and goes before I do (you know how guys are much faster on this).

I don't even have room to be annoyed with the toilet seat being up or down. I just don't want to meet guys in the toilet! Is that too much to ask? Sometimes I just want to tidy up my hair, see myself in the mirror, or wash my hand longer, without having to rush like a devil trying to catch me.

These past 2 weeks, I tried to go to the second toilet. This one is just next to the kitchen and in the middle of the lane connecting 2 main rooms. The door doesn't go until the ceiling. There's about 1-2 feet gap and you can hear the steps of people passing by (which means they can hear me too, if someone cares to listen that is).

But I found out that I'm more comfortable with this one. At least I don't have to worry about that awkward moment to meet your opposite sex in the unisex bathroom. I can stay a bit longer and be girly with the mirror (there's one inside!). So I decide not to care about the fact it is in the one of busiest pathway in the office. As long as I'm inside, hopefully nobody takes notice that it's me.

Guys wouldn't understand how important bathroom moments for girls.
