I kind of forgot another place I worked at. I worked at a Lockheed facility in SW Denver (Littleton) and one building lobby had this big wood monolith. Behind it was some hidden bathrooms and it was a very quiet and private one at that. Also the executives didn't sit too far from there.
One time, I needed to go badly and was coming back so I ducked into the bathroom. While I was on the toilet, I heard the door open, something muttered and then the person left. About a few minutes later, I was finished and when I walked out, some "suit" was giving me the nastiest look. He made some comment that the bathroom was reserved for visitor and executive usage only. I mentioned there no sign indicating and he mentioned that if the bathroom is not marked with signs, it is not meant for common employee usage. Also in front of the building, many of the parking spaces were reserved either for visitor or executives only as well.

When on a major airlines flight from LAX to Mexico City I was in coach close to 1st Class and nature was calling me. Instead of walking to the rear of the plane went into 1st class.
A flight officier stopped me and said the restroom was for the 1st class passengers but for now go ahead. I turned my head looking to the rear of the plane and thought "do I have to go to the rear of the bus".
I work in a very large hospital and we have one bathroom (one stall) for 30 people. You can bet your life that when it's finally your turn the place will be a disaster. How on earth paper towels get shredded, scattered throughout the bathroom and even shoved down the sink drain.... I will just never know. Not to mention the various liquids on the toilet seat and floor. And how does soap end up across the room nowhere near the sink??
Traveling down the interstate and needing to use the restroom, I stopped at a rest area and headed to the restroom.
"Hi, how are you?"
I'm not the type to start a conversation in the restroom and I don't know what got into me,
But I answered, somewhat embarrassed,
"Doin' just fine!"
And the other person says:
"So what are you up to?"
What kind of question is that? At that point, I'm thinking this is too bizarre so I say:
"Uhhh, I'm like you, just traveling!" ??
At this point I am just trying to get out as fast as I can when I hear another question.
"Can I come over?"
Ok, this question is just too weird for me but I figured I could just be polite and end the conversation. I tell them:
"No..I'm a little busy right now!!!"
Then I hear the person say nervously...
"Listen, I'll have to call you back. There's an idiot in the other stall who keeps answering all my questions!"

Good for you! And people wonder why many of us can't stand executive management.
LOL this thread is hilarious! My ex bf works in retail and he would drive home (20 mins each way) to take care of business and drive back to work. He can't do it public because he likes to take off his pants etc when he goes. Anyways, I'm the opposite. If you got to go you gotta go! At work, I notice the restroom is used less around 10ish and of course lunch time so I try to go around those times.
i was working at a major fortune 500 company and there was an incident were a disgruntled employee started sh*tting on the floor in the bathroom, then it led to smearing sh*t on bathroom walls and mirrors. this was in the womans restroom. women were absolutely horrified
I was reading this thread and this post literally stopped me dead in my tracks.
If I might be allowed a small pun, "holy sh*t!!!"
The human mind is certainly a most fragile instrument, isn't it?

Anybody ever seen the TV series with Toni Collette and John Corbett called United States of Tara? It was a good show, until they cancelled it (boo!!) ... but this smearing poo in public restrooms thing sounds like something "Gimme" from that show would do...
