RE: Dear Abby: Handicapped Stall

To me, whoever has the greatest need is the one I'll let jump in line in front of me.

If there's a 4 year old who is going to poop his pants, but the lady in the wheelchair behind him says she's fine and can wait, it only makes sense to let the kid go.

Also, I think pooping need trumps peeing need.

What if you are partially disabled. Like not "officially" disabled but still have a valid reason to use the bathroom. Like a broken leg. Can you get HALF a swipe card and see if you're lucky enough to squeeze between the half open door?

 I agree!

Maybe we should have separate stalls for each function?

 I've already admitted my horrible misdeed that I shall burn in hell for eternity for.  I have said repeatedly, I parked illegally in the handicapped spot when I had knee surgery and was in a full leg cast.  I am doomed!  I also rode the ridey cart.  I'm double burning.

DD rode the ridey cart once when she had a sprained ankle and had to go to the store for supplies for a project. She wasn't allowed to walk on it, and crutches make her clumsy. So she rode the ridey cart at 8pm at night. Please pray for her soul.

I accidentally parked in a handicapped spot. The store repaved and moved some spots around. I just parked where I normally did. Am I going to burn for that?

In MN, the lines on the lot don't last long. By the end of winter, you can't see them at all in most lots. If there isn't a sign in the ground that says its handicapped, we park there. I figure if we ever get ticketed, I will take pics of the surface and go to court.

 I will pray for her.  Not sure how much good MY praying will do though.  I'm already doomed.

I remember going to the store in the rain on crutches once.  Oh my living hell.  Crutches and rain do NOT mix.

 Yes.  And you've already admitted that you pooped in a handicapped stall.

I broke my foot once and they gave me crutches. I was utterly useless with them. I rode the ridey cart then. When there wasn't one available, I used the complimentary wheelchair and DD pushed. I am probably also going to hell.

I think they should put a little computer on the handicapped stall. It can ask you a series of questions to determine your worthiness of using it.

Are you handicapped?
Where?
How?
Describe your handicap in a hundred words or less.
Do you have a placard?
Do you need to pee or poop or both?
How many people are currently in the bathroom?
How many have obvious disabilities?
How many don't have obvious disabilities?
Is there a changing table in this stall?
Is there a mother waiting to change her baby?

We will evaluate your answers and get back to you in 15 minutes to let you know if you qualify for stall usage.

 After having worked at Target for 5 years...all I can say is...please use a toilet. 

 

I cleaned up poop from the fitting room (also a LOT of pee). People took a crap in there all the time. And little kids mistake the fitting room for potties all the time. It's a stall thing. 

we had a serial pooper for awhile. Pooped in front of the yoga pant wall once a week for about 2 months. Security could never find the culprit on the video - I even went in to watch it! 

lots of poop near the video games. Kids would sit back there and play them while their parents shopped. They would play and not notice they had to poop until they were pooping. Lots of poop back there.

 They poop  all over the store. Not just in the bathrooms...and a lot of the time...they poop in the bathroom, but not in the toilet.

 A lot of people look down on retail workers. The reality is, I probably made about 500 decisions a day. That one every minute or so. Most jobs don't require that kind of problem solving on the fly. It's demanding work. And try getting someone to clean up poop with a smile! Lol. As a manager, I usually gloved up and helped them out. I didn't like making someone do something I wouldnt do. So we cleaned it up together and then I bought them a soda or a treat from the snack bar.

Yeah, I think the thing here is the difference between entitled and not is this. If you need the stall and come in and people won't allow you to use it then that is a reason to be angry. Entitled is expecting people not to use "YOUR" stall even if you don't have the need to use it yourself.


   Entitled is much more than that.  Entitled is "i should have to suffer NO inconvenience in life".  I "shouldn't have to wait".  I "should be first in line".   You "should somehow magically KNOW that I NEED this more than you".  I "shouldn't have to work for a living to have the same things as you".  That is Entitlement. hmm
