My moral dilemma

Banned
I feel this situation was one of those Heavy Rain type of moments where it defines me and my ending in life. Whether or not I go through those pearly gates at the end. Criteria for the true ending you might say. So I ask you all now what would you do?

You're the last one in the office. You clog the toilet, but you can't visibly tell until you flush. After 20 minutes it sinks back to seemingly normal. The water rises to the point that anything would cause it to overflow so surely the next drop into that toilet, turd or paper will cause it to overflow and give someone a bad (you may even say shitty) morning at the office.

Do you unclog the toilet or do you leave it to be someone else's problem in the morning?

You send out an email before you leave that said "which motherfucker clogged the toilet at the end of the day?" This shifts blame entirely away from you and makes people aware of the problem so you're not surprising anyone.

Unless you work at a DNA lab, in which case you'd be fucked.
 
I'm one if those "you broke it you bought it" kinda dudes so unfortunately you shit the bed it's on you to clean it up.
You're a good person.
Are you going to have to unplug it with your hands or will there be some type of plunger involved?
There's a plunger.

You're a terrible person.
I think I made the right choice. I'm certain my place in the sky has been reserved.

What you did is a natural bodily function. If the toilet or plumbing system can't handle it, that's not your problem. I think you should leave it and be proud that you had an epic smash. Fair game, condolences to the next in line.

Yeah but....If it's ever figured out it was him that left it he will get the blame. See that's how awkward nicknames come about in the workplace. Shitty Steve. Tom the turd. Etc... You gotta at least make the attempt to unplug your shit.

I mean, I guess. If they could even figure out he did it, he can just say he took his dump and was in a hurry to get outta there and didn't notice. It's not like he tried to flush something weird down there.
 
For the record, I DID UNCLOG IT. I was just wondering what others would do in that situation. I couldn't imagine the next person going in there in the morning, flushing, and having it overflow. It's a private bathroom smack dab in the middle of the office. That person would have to fight the flood in the middle of the office where everyone can hear the struggle. The office of paper thin walls.

Good on you.
 
You already have a Pokemon girl as your avatar. So just leave it alone.
 
I've clogged the toilet once at home . Had to solve that by using a metal pipe and that worked. It was a memorable day.

Good man, yeah it's just one of those things where you man up and recognize if you did wrong you make it right.
I've had it happen at my workplace that has a public toilet and wanted to choke the person that did it.
 
I remember a guy that used to work with me and he took a massive ogre shit and came out of the bathroom and ran into our boss at the time. The smell followed him out of the bathroom somehow and it was like something dead that had just eaten something that had been dead for months and shat it and rolled over it. It was a masterpiece of horror. The tension was palpable and beautiful.
 
Leave an unsigned note on the toilet explaining that there is a clog. I'm not paid to deal with my work toilets. Even if I caused the issue, it wouldn't have been intentional. Home toilets are bad enough, but public / work toilets are on a complete other level of disgusting. Way too germy to go cleaning without getting paid specifically for that.

That all might change if we're talking about a frequently cleaned non-public toilet that is only shared with a few co-workers. Anything more than that, though, and no way.
 
I'd leave it. Makes for a great rib. At my office, I used to make holess at the bottom of styrofoam water cups and just mix them in with the stack :D

You should go to the janitor and tell them the name of someone in the office and that they clogged the toilet and left it for someone else.
 
I actually don't understand how this is a moral dilemma at all.

"I fucked up, should I act stupid and make someone else take care of this?"
 
jokes on you. i don't use toilet paper. just a bottle of water or soda cup and my left hand to wash mein arse.
 
If there is a plunger near by ( even a stick) problem solved, I'd get to it, to make sure the toilet is unclogged.

But if there is no way for me to unclog it (without touching the disgusting water) then I'd leave it. You have custodial staff at work don't you? This is such a common, lame, tame, "dilemma" ... I don't even know why the OP is talking about being "judged at the pearly gates" here! :messenger_tears_of_joy:

I usually save those kinda self deprecating thoughts, while getting out of the booth at the strippers, zipping my trousers after a handy.

That's not the case. Like I said, you look at the toilet and you can't tell it's clogged. It's not until you flush it that it rises and you realize it's clogged.
If your workplace bathroom doesn't provide a plunger then it's not your problem.

You have 4 options:
Walk out and say that you couldn't even go because the toilet is overflowing
Proudly walk out and say the toilet is clogged and you would have fixed it yourself it they provided a plunger
Stay in that stall for the rest of your life
Run out of there as quickly as possible screaming, "DON'T LOOK AT ME!"
