I don’t mind getting my hands dirty when I have manual labour to do, but I’m a hygiene freak. Whenever I have to use public rest rooms, I have to figure out how I will leave without touching the doorknob.
I'm the same way and always carry alcohol gel or wipies. BUT, there are some bathrooms that are so dirty that it might be better not to wash there. Jordan
there is a Seinfeld episode where he is changing his shoe laces and George asks him why he is doing that. Jerry responds "the tips touched the public restroom floor" I travel a lot and I have turned right back out when I go into some public restrooms. I can hold on another 20 miles!!!!! I use the bottom of my shoes to open restroom doors and to flush. I never touch those things. I also carry a tough gel hand cleaner with me at all times for occasions such as this. Raf
I always open the door on the way out with a paper towel and then try to make the shot in the trash as I exit. EZ wipes or handy wipes or whatever wipes have been in my car since Camille was a babe. Wipey Wipey
I have a very easy solution, at least in my daily life. I never use a wash room that does not belong to either myself or someone I knew. I cannot remember the last time I used a public wash room. Pocket sized gel hand wash is also a nice compromise when you can't get near a sink you trust.
So, you can hold it until you get home, you don't travel and you don't have a job. :rofl Wait until you hit 45+. You know where every bathroom is between home and your destination. You walk into a restaurant and ask, where's the bathroom before you're even seated.
Ok let me clarify this just a tad. If I am staying in a hotel that is obviously alright, since that is maid serviced and they have the little soaps and chocolates on your pillow. No wrong can come of that! So obviously travelling is fine, which provides me with a new home base if I do not have friends in the area. See? All safe :rofl
There's another Seinfeld episode where Jerry is throwing a belt away. This time it is his girlfiend that asks what he's doing. He says "The buckle hit the urinal". I wonder how many of those questioned that do wash their hands use soap? :rofl
Some things are just simply out of my control. But I like to minimize the risk where I can. Besides, my bathroom is really nice..
