Poop Rant
 

We have a river of poop in the parking lot where I work.

We also cannot use the facilities.

The river of poop is getting wider, and closer to my car, and I just washed it yesterday.

I might cry, for many reasons- one, because my car might have poop on it; another because I really have to pee!

For some reason, out of the whole city of Omaha, the sewer decided to get backed up here.

And now the smell is seeping inside! NOOOOOOOOOOO!

My advice..... Lysol and golashes. Good luck. :)

My advice....."We're gonna need a bigger boat"

that's gross, and not to mention a blatent health risk.

ICK. Health Department violations?

Why are they still having you work if there are no restrooms? and there's raw sewage so closeby -- i'd think the board of health would have something to say about that...

Are they springing you early?

Gawd, just the thought of it is so..... blech...

Sorry. Probably my fault. I've been having um..."issues" lately. I fear I may have overloaded the sewer system. I't's not like I'm even pooping anymore. It's more like my ass is throwing up. Ug.

I don't know if they have thought of letting us go early. I honestly never even thought of that. Everyone all day has been walking down the street to the gas station to use their restrooms, so they probably figure that they don't have to. I have the feeling that the only thing that would close this business down would be the second coming of Christ, and only then because the owner is very religious.

I know that I am going to have to walk down to the gas station myself this afternoon- maybe they have built a bridge of some sort over the Poopee River.

Yay! A poop bridge!

The obvious solution, invest in moon shoes:

This way you can hop, hop, hop to poopie freedom.

Step one: Get a canoe and a camera, go into the river and hide your paddle, have a friend take pictures of you doing this.

Step two: Pimp the pictures out to Hallmark under the concept of "Up shit creek without a paddle."

Step three: Profit!

That really sucks.

Uggg...I think I just wouldn't show up to work if there was a river of poop. Working is not worth getting hepatitis.

And I think there's some law that says that a work place must have funtional "facilities" on site.

I know it would be hard for a boss to send everyone home for a backed up sewer, but I can imagine it's not a safe or pleasent working environment.

That is so nasty! I can't even imagine having to deal with that. All I can say is I'm sorry.

Are we expecting a man eating great white shark to come up out of this river of poop? I loved that quote in the original JAWS :D

It's just a little "dooty"....a good rain will help clear things up in Omaha. But hey I'm 700 miles away from you so it's really not much of a bother to me at the moment. If this keeps up please let us know so I can buy one of those gas masks that were sold out of every supply house a few months back when the big terrorist scare was that we were going to get gased.

bahaha!
At my last summer job, there were "bums" in the basement parking lot pissing on cars. I know the managers car got pissed on. My coworkers were walking to their cars in the lot and heard some squeaking and dripping water err yea the sewage pipes were exploding. For one of the guys, just as he got into the car the whole pipe exploded and there was shit spraying and pouring everywhere and he rushed outta the place asap. I worked there just as we were moving to another location. Thank-goodness i cant drive :)

Apparently, a tree root grew into our main sewer line. The actual tree is on the city's property, so we have to wait for the city to come and fix it.

I am always one of about three people here until eight, so I haven't really heard any news about not having to work today. I will just do my job as normal. But they did put out of order signs on all of the bathrooms.

To fix the problem, they opened a pipe that is right outside the main entrance. It is fine if no one flushes a toilet, but when someone does, it becomes a bubbling crude. There was a long strand of toilet paper that came out of it and dried to the sidewalk.

It seems to me that there comes a point in management's mind that they think "Gee, everyone is taking long breaks to go down the street and use the restroom, and my tires are slowly being caked with shit. Maybe we should call it a week and go home."

Guess I will find out later today.

Just go. Dare them to make it an issue.

Start the weekend. Now.

Leave all the shit behind you. (heh)

Correction: Our porta potties just arrived.

I need this weekend.

Eeww! I feel for ya hon, really I do. Especially if you have to wait for Mayor Mike and his merry band of municipal misfits to fix it. Unless, of course, you work down by the riverfront. That seems to be the only area that gets any "attention" at all, anymore.

What a mess. ;)
Get us some pics.

Not that seeing a river of um... is all that exciting but if you're like me and stuck at home all day long, anything out of the ordinary is interesting. :hmm:

Sorry, they hosed the poop down the hill today, so no pics. I might be able to get a pic of our new restrooms, though.

Guess you guys were up the proverbial creek sans paddle for a while.
Glad that got cleared up before the weather got too hot.
A mid-summer situation like that would be dangerously unpleasant.

Shit happens.
