It doesn't take long to replace a toilet. They either messed up or something was wrong.
And why didn't everyone leave after learning the toilet isn't there, why did they temporarily reset so people pee AND POO and stink up the bathroom. I find that behavior way more odd.
All I can think of, is that it may have been a rare family reunion type of occasion, so that people who attended, possibly from near and far, were looking forward to a good visit of some duration. What seems very odd to me, is that the two doing the repair didn't think to wait a bit. They could have done it closer to the end of the afternoon, rather than shortly after the meal. It's kind of a no-brainer.
My great niece invited several family members for dinner. She’s single and just purchased her first house.
After supper, and after guests had had several cups of coffee, my great niece’s dad and boyfriend shut down the water to the house and proceeded to replace the one and only toilet in the home.
That side of the family thought nothing of inconveniencing their guests by shutting down the toilet for hours. The replacement job didn’t go as quickly as planned. The old toilet had to be temporarily reset in place several times for the elderly guests to empty bladders and bowels.
None of us were told in advance that the toilet would not be operable during our visit. Had I be made aware of that fact, I would have declined the invitation.
Who does that? Is this not odd behavior?
Am I wrong to be disgusted by what happened?
Would you do this to your guests and think nothing of their discomfort?
I don't want to read 11 pages of posts so I'll likely repeat a bunch of comments.
It was DUMB behavior on their part to attempt it with a houseful of people. No thought was put into what they were doing. If it was me, a bathroom urge would be my cue to go home.
And why didn't everyone leave after learning the toilet isn't there, why did they temporarily reset so people pee AND POO and stink up the bathroom. I find that behavior way more odd.
Right? The minute that working on the toilet starts, I'd consider the party over.
Sure, but when there's obvious maintenance going on in the only bathroom, that seem to be a pretty clear sign that social time is over.
It should have been a pretty clear sign to the boneheads that it was an inappropriate time to remove the toilet.
