Canada BC specifically
The proper use of flushing toilets and bathroom etiquette
The industry I work in has many new Canadians and I believe they all need a crash course on this from the companies they are working for.
Not enough information. What are people.doing or not doing that isn't right? Do they take the middle urinal when there are 3 available? I had a coworker who did that and it was a little weird.
They constantly flush wet wipes and bottle caps down the toilet and it clogs up the pumps and pipes.
Also washing their feet/shoes in the sink before using the toilet.
This is my experience in the men's washroom I don't know what the female one is like.
How is that a New Canadian thing though? What countries are they from and what fucking intergalactic class missile proof God tier plumbing do they have there? Bottle caps???
Because mainstream media and Trudeau have stopped the real information about Canada from getting out, people don't realize that the Fallout games are really stories based on life here in the north. Bottle caps are currency here.
Kinda explains the exchange rate, ya know?
Nuka Cola goes well with ketchup chips, eh?
Ohhhh yeah they sure do bud.
They don't have any real plumbing at all in a lot of places, which is exactly how this happens. Throwing various things into a pit toilet that will just be buried over doesn't clog anything.
I guess I was more curious why people are popping the caps off their beverages while on the toilet.
"Don't shit where you eat" or some variant thereof is pretty universal; I (stupidly?) assumed "don't eat where you shit" would be equally so.
I'm surprised there's a place in the world where public restrooms are unironically considered reliable in the first place.
