Some of you may recall a previous post of mine about bathroom etiquette and the relation to our roles in society, or rather, lack thereof. I’d like to speak to you now about the fact that we do not work in a trailer park, please don’t treat it as such.At the end of last week, I was taking my normal trip to the café to get lunch, and followed my usual path from my office, through the corridor between buildings, down the stairs and WHOA! What the heck is that on one of the stairs….no….it can’t be….is that a huge glob of SPIT???
I regret to say, that yes…it was a huge luggie. That’s slang for a grotesque amount of phlegm that someone so graciously coughed up and chose to spit ON THE STAIRWELL.
Ok first of all…spitting is disgusting anyway. If you have to do it, do it in the privacy of your own trailer park, or somewhere out in the woods where no one can see you or hear you. Do NOT do it in the parking lot walking back to your car…do not do it on the sidewalk at the mall…and do NOT do it on the stairs at WORK!
I don’t care if you have the worst cold in the world, and simply can’t expectorate enough to clear it out…go to the bathroom and cough into a tissue. And while we’re on that note…don’t look in the tissue after you do it and then show it to other people. It’s not a new born, we don’t care how “precious the little thing looks” or how “he has my nose“. All we care about is your having your phlegm experience somewhere very, very far away from the general population.
Don’t make me call your mother.
