Man Power Mad

The urinals in the men's room at work are missing divider walls, leaving some of them distressingly open. It's meant to look like this:

|u|u|u|u|u|u|

But it actually looks like this:

u|u|u|u|u u

This means that for total coverage, and leaving a one-urinal space, as required by man law, there are only TWO urinals available for simultaneous use:

u|U|u|U|u u

This morning, when no one was around, on a lark, I used the one in the middle:

u|u|U|u|u u

Then, another guy walked in.

I have no idea what the chick equivalent of this is, but it's probably something pretty bad, like telling you you have lipstick on your teeth unsurreptitiously.

He played it cool, and for what it's worth, he made the right choice in a tough spot:

u|u|U|u|U u

Leaving his right flank open, but maintaining proper spacing.


I finished up quickly and moved on to wash my hands, but the compact was breached, and we both knew it.

I probably can't ever be a freemason now.
