A matter of Manners

[Jaybird180]

I was in the head the other day and while at the sink I noticed a gentleman (let's just call him that, since he's...."high ranking")-
Anyhow, I saw this gentleman come out of the crapper and just walk out! No washing, NOTHING! I dred the upcoming office Christmas party when I may have to laugh and joke with him, with images are in my head of Mr. Poo Hands. No way in hell would I introduce him to my wife, so he can try and feign niceities and try and shake hands with her....

What would you guys do????

Run away! Run away! Run away! Run away!

Are you sure he crapped while in crapper? Maybe he just tucked in his shirt or blew his nose or something.

Or it's his safe place.

Maybe there was a sink in the crapper? Maybe he has a personal stock of moist towelettes?

 

[DSB]

Maybe it's his habit to lick his hands clean when he gets back to his office.

A.use toilet paper. B.use finger.How many people that you've known in your entire life do you think choose option B.

I think the title nailed it. Even if he was doing something relatively innocuous like tucking-in or had plans to wash elsewhere, he should go to the sink and make the effort. I don't want to have to think about other people's personal hygiene. I know other people are filthy, but at least go through the motions to let me think that you're clean. It's a matter of manners.

Edit: That said, what can you do except grin and bear it and use a ton of alcohol-based hand sanitizer on everything that he goes near?

Wait untill he offers you a piece of candy.

I am amazed how many people do not wash their hands after using the restroom. I see it all the time where I work

Carry wipes with you and pull a Monk when he shakes your hand. If he asks, explain why.

Also, goodbye Monk.

Some people are barbarians, plain and simple. There were enough at my last job that my buddies and I kept a brown list. No shaking their hands, no invitations to lunch, and for God's sake don't touch my keyboard!

 

[valmara1971]

Easy this one when he goes to shake hands offer him your left hand as I believe this is the hand associated with wiping in most middle easten cultures. He will know why you have done it and so will you.

Yep.

Unfortunately that happens quite often. On the other hand my wife tells me the ladies are not much better...

I had an old high school friend visit last night. After glory-daying and recounting embarassing stories for some time, he went off down the hall to the bathroom. Remembering one more quirky thing from our past, as he returned to the living room, I sang out a saying his mom had kept on an embroidered doily in their powder room when he was a kid:

"If the soaps not wet, you're not done yet!"

He meekly said "I'm going to go wash my hands now," and left the room.

And not just the shlubs you expect. In my last job, I witnessed a one-level down from CEO (at one of the largest companies in the world), dressed in his $5,000 Armani suit go straight from the urinal out the door, with no stop at Mr. Sink.

I know it's mine.

A gentleman would never offer his hand to a lady for a handshake, unless the lady offered her's first....
