Sounds like a plan to me. Restrooms at fast food places, gas stations, and rest areas have really got to get better.

OOoo, don't forget dental floss. Lots of people flush dental floss.

I, too, have noticed how we Americans abuse our own toilets. I often see people flushing Q-tips, paper towels, condoms, and whatever else. Also, without the university charging residents and paying for housekeeping staff (for whom I am eternally grateful), the bathrooms would be a total wreck! Just take a look on a Sunday night (Housekeeping gets weekends off) and you'll see that the mess is growing fast.

Please, America. Respect our toilets!

Because sometimes, a single flush just isn't enough.

Yes! PooperGal, great report!

Educating people on proper bathroom care, and respecting the room itself is something that needs to be done at an early age. However, when you have businesses keeping shoddy restrooms, a lesson in good business practice is called for.

Clean restrooms make customers happy. Happy customers come back (granted, your other services must be good too). Loyal customers are responsible for the majority of revenue. More revenue = more cash in the wallet, which is why people start businesses in the first place.
To me, it makes no sense for businesses to keep dirty bathrooms if they care at all about making money.

Disclaimer:
I'm not an economist/business owner, nor have I taken any business or econ classes outside of the required courses in high school and college. If you are an economist or have a degree in business and you disagree that clean bathrooms make a difference, then please educate me on the matter.

Neither am I an economist/buisness owner, but Subway's crappers are some of the dirtiest I have seen, and I go to subway often.

Of course, the guys who are handling your food are probably using the crapper regularly, and not everyone pays attention to the sign about employees having to wash their hands. You might want to re-think eating in a place with gross bathrooms.

KOC, you're an exception. Most of us know you are willing to gamble with your body.

I hope not to have such problems as I encountered at KFC in my next two reports, KOC @ Outback Steakhouse and KOC @ Taco Bell.

Toilets are people? Is that what he said?
Poop on!

I`ve shat in many Malaysian toilets and they`re generally OK, if smelly. I`m working on another Travelog on the most heinous and weird shitters I`ve come across around the world which I hope to have ready in a few weeks - there are a lot of shitters to consider, it may have to be a serial report.

Box-- If it's serial-by-nation, that'd be great! Kind of like a Fodor's For Toiletting.
