Hey Pandas, What Should I Do About A Coworker Who Constantly Pees On The Toilet Seat At Work?
I work in a small restaurant as a server, and I'd like some input on how I can approach this. One of my coworkers, a dishwasher, always pees on the toilet seat at work, and I have to clean it up a few times a day. It's gotten to the point that I have to check the bathroom after every time I see him go in there. The bathroom is for customers too, so I can't just not clean it. It's really gross, and I feel like I shouldn't have to clean up after a grown man.There's also a language barrier—he speaks very little English, and I know very little Spanish. So I'd either have to use Google Translate or tell my boss or the chef, who can speak both, to speak with him about it, which I feel awkward about. I don't want to embarrass him, but at the same time, there are other people here who have to use the bathroom, including customers. How should I approach this issue?

Install a very large magnifying glass in the right position over the bowl so he can see what he's working with.
Serious answer... next time you find it, fetch him, lead him by the hand and point it out. He will understand "no". Then demonstrate how the seat lifts. Communication isn't hard for something like this.
I worked in a jail as an officer in central booking. When on nights there was this one lieutenant who would always rush in and use the bathroom and I always noticed that there was pee on the seat when he left. I wrote a sign that said "wipe off the seat after you go please! I know who is doing it and I am NOT afraid to let the whole jail know that you do! If you will not comply, you need to find a different bathroom to use or face the consequences. This is MY area not yours! Clean up your mess or I'll let officers and inmates know you pee on the seat!". Stopped happening after that. Also did that because that same guy wouldn't let me leave when my mom called and told me that !y dad had been rushed to the hospital...
D**n! You're awesome! I definitely can't put something as bada*s at that since it's also for customers. But maybe a note could work. Also, f**k that guy twice over! I hope everything worked out with your family.

Yes, checking the bathrooms is part of my job description. It's more about being courteous though. When if I drop something in the kitchen, I don't just leave it for the kitchen staff to clean up because cleaning the kitchen is "their job".
