Poll: Just because

BubblyToes

Do you poop at work?

Me?  No.  I can't.

Rebekah1021

O.M.G - I have a strict no pooping in public rule I follow. I will go so far as to make sure that DH isn't home either. 

Pooping is totally private. I still squirm/giggle when I fart in front of him. 

Temp374386125003286

Yes, but it took me awhile.  It is a private bathroom - not with stalls or anything.

jettagurl

No. Because I don't work.  

But if I did, I wouldn't, still.  

JOEBunny

Not anymore, but I did.  Once I got into a sticky note fight with someone who insisted on peeing on the seat.  I would understand this in a public place, but our floor in an office building had maybe 25 women and 4 stalls, all professionals, not random port-o-letters. 

MelandJeff

No. Unless it is an emergency.

Jamaica_Bride

Nope. Pooping is for at home.

 

Gah, there are sloths at work who are SO gnarly about now caring when they poop or who might be in the bathroom. Gag.

I'm a SAHM now, but when I did work (outside of the home) I had to- had no choice with IBS!

However in school (high school & younger) I would have never! It would been so embarrassing!

by the time I was in college I had IBS and pretty much had no choice.

dnagal

Yes!  

JellymanKelly

Back when I worked, I always went to the faraway bathrooms that no one used. Both jobs, I was lucky enough to work at a place that had unused areas of the building. My coworkers, however, had no problem. I had a co-worker poop while talking to me stall-to-stall once. Ugh.

I don't work now but I can poop anytime and anywhere.  When you gotta go!  Its not good to hold it in.

expectingnothing

Yes. All living things poop!  I'd rather go than hold that sh!t all up in my body!

Ditto! Dood. Do we work on the same floor? Seriously, people have no shame. NO SHAME!

KoriBrett

Only when necessary.

CleoKitty

Considering my IBS issues I pretty much have no choice unless I'd rather sh!t my pants.

I am so bad that I won't even go into the bathroom after certain people have been in there because I KNOW they were pooping.  I'll hold my pee as long as I can.  LOL

And I ALWAYS have to poop as soon as I get home.  Always.  

shiloh17

Nope. Don't do away games! Only go at home unless its a dire emergency.

hippotree

Yes.  My name is hippo, and I am a work pooper.

Love this!  I only go at work if it's an emergency, I prefer resting my cheeks on their own throne when it comes to a dropping the kids off at the pool.

tammy79

No pooping unless I'm at home , I just can't do it.

r9stedt

Hellz yes.

Marchmamma

no way!  I can't poop in public.

Hell, I have a hard enough time pooping when DH is in the next room.

Jodi&Joe

After dealing with years of constipation, I seriously enjoy pooping.  If that happens to be at work, so be it.

I do have some courtesy about it, for the most part (courtesy flush, wait until the bathroom is empty (if possible), go to the far stall, etc but when I have to poop, I have to poop.  I'm not holding it.

hikerbeth

I did when I worked.  I was a 2 million square foot factory that was mostly men, so I was rarely in a bathroom with anyone else.

I definitely like to pretend I'm in a bubble in the bathroom though. . . I won't answer if DH or the kids try to talk to me. . . it's my private time.

goodheartedmommy

I poop on a schedule (other people don't do this?). I don't work, but when I did luckily it did not interfere with my once daily poop schedule.

penguingrrl

Nope, have never been able to poop anywhere but at home.

*Lu-Lu*

yes, girl.  Same time every day.     However, if my schedule is interrupted, there is no pooping in public bathrooms.  Can't do it.  Sorry.

Seriously? So what do you do if you really have to go and it's like 10 a.m.???

peekaboo716

Yes.

shouldbworkin

We have a special poop stall at work, complete with floor to ceiling walls with a real door and ventilation fan.

That really never happens to me! I poop at a certain time every day and it very rarely changes from that. And it happens to be a time where I'm almost always at home. I can't say I've had many times where it's an "OMG must go now."

I say that, and I'm sure I will be hit with that feeling a lot starting now. Because that's the way life works

I can hold it like a champ.

beanzer

I work from home so yes. ?But on the rare occasions I have to go into the office, I must be dying of stomach cramps before I will go there.

ridesbuttons

Of course I do.  Frankly, I'd rather poop outside of my own home.  Who really wants that nasty business in your own toilet?

Temp108743750006959

I can poop anywhere. Makes your jeans fit better.

YES!!!

ak1234

When I am pregnant, I do not have the option of pooping at home all of the time.  When you have the choice of sh!tting your pants or pooping at work, *I* choose pooping at work.  Like a pp, I do it in the most unobtrusive way possible - the far stall, courtesy flush, try to be alone, etc.

LOL...I guess my children just do crazy things to my insides because when pregnant (like 20+ weeks) I can go from zero to oh sh!t (literally haha) in seconds. 

Mominator

Every morning at 10am. My bm's are like clockwork

kickypants

I'm a first-thing-in-the-morning girl, right after my cup o' coffee , so it's rarely an issue. But in the occasional circumstance that I find myself off schedule, yes, I'd avail myself of the office restroom, invoking all the proper poop etiquette, of course (using the farthest stall from the door, courtesy flushing, rustling the TP to cover any, er, sounds, etc.).

This!  I mean, how does one hold their poop & just....not go?  When I gotta poop- I gotta poop,  so I go about that business wherever I may be.
