Sounds like you guys expect a lot from your Port-O-Lets. The TP is the first thing to go here and nobody has any respect for the following guy.
Ours are pretty much useless by noon on Mon.

We tell each guy to bring his own TP - he's gonna need it.

My old boss was as regular as they get. Every morning at 9 o'clock he would squeeze out a log on a piece of plywood. He would then proceed to show off his creation to anyone that wasn't already hiding from him.

We started locking up the pots when one homeowner saw **** rings around his master bath bowl during a walk-thru. The locking of the johns coincided with the finding of turds in the sump pits. All of my employees basically told me to go f myself. After fishing out 2 sump pit catfish I removed the locks from the pots and placed a toilet brush with some cleaner in the trailers. We used to leave the water off in our models when not in use just in case a pipe broke during the week. One Sunday a realtor was locking up the model and noticed a huge stinker in the down stairs powder along with a BK napkin. She had checked the entire home at the start of the day. One of our "customers" dropped a duece in the empty toilet. I love home building.

I know a guy with a truck camper that had a portable toilet in it which he didnt plan to use, had no fluid in it. One of his friends went out with him and was in the camper fixing lunch while he drove. I guess a couple months later he found out the guy used the dumper.

probally a #1 seller
I've worked for a lot of builders and this is always a problem.
Had **** back up into a tub drain on a service the owner told me "I've never even used this restroom"
Also saw a plumber get pissed on right in his face while conecting the vent stack (I think it was the roofer)

On most of the jobs I've been on, we always have problems with the ****houses getting blown over by the wind. On the job I'm on now, when it got blown over, it would end up rolling a ways down the mountain side. believe me, after going in there after it's been blown over, any public restroom looks good by comparison.

i agree about taking a crap at home before or after work.i have a hand working for me now who takes at least three craps a day on my time and pees about a half dozen times or more.
i thought about that last week when i seen him out at the truck taking a wizz.ill bet he takes at least an hour a day on my time to use the restroom,and this is without a johhny on the spot.
and if you have a johhny on the spot,it will be used.i have had hands who could hold it till lunch or after work,but if there was a portable on the job,they were in there 3-4x a day
