Cable guy just pooped in my child's toilet?

Question

If you are a cable guy or repair person of some nature, is this okay? What is the propper ettiquette for handling these situations?

To top it all off, he asked my DH to jump is van before he left!

Should I call Direct TV to complain? I'm a psycho mom, I know...

Answer 1

That just isn't right... why didn't he use a real toilet instead of a child's... complain to your TV service.

Answer 2

While it might appear a bit gross, sometimes you just can't wait.  I am sure he doesn't make a point of trying to p**p in as many client's toilets as possible.  Perhaps he was feeling sick?  Is he going to tell your husband "um, no. I was hoping to take a c**p. Would that be alright?"  Would you actually have said no??  I am also sure that he probably didn't leave his lights on on purpose to make his battery die.  I am guessing it was a company car and if there was a problem with it beyond that it was not his fault.  He could have waited for someone from DirecTV to come help him but then he would have been late for his next appointment and I see no reason for your husband not to be courteous enough to help.  You would want the same if your car died.  Like I said, I understand your feelings.  It seems gross and like he was needing your for a lot but he was probably feeling bad and having a bad day.  I doubt he was TRYING to be rude about anything.  Give him a break, I say.  

Answer 3

People have to use the toilet.  It's a fact of life.  What do you expect a service person to to?  Carry a porta-potty with him?

If you are concerned about germs, clean the toilet.

Answer 4

punch him... call the company and get him fired... thats not right!!!

Answer 5

I agree with the person above me.

But when you do it express your true feelings not just that your upset.

Answer 6

Answer 8
