TOILET STOPS ON P&L

Post by rollo663 »

Our office goes live in the next month or so ,with delivery spans ranging from 4 to 5 hours .Should you have a toilet stop on your delivery arranged with manager or just use common sense when nature takes its cause ,as its leaving your partner waiting ?

Just use your common sense, if there are no toilets on your route and you have to drive 5 mins to the nearest one then so be it!

the planners are supposed to identify possible places for the staff to use toilets while out on delivery.
if they fail to identify any toilets then you could always travel back to the office

Toilet stops should already be identified on all walks anyway as part of the H&S legislation compliance. So if they have done their jobs all they have to do is transfer them to the new duties.

Take an empty 2ltr pop bottle with you, bog roll and an old delivery pouch.

Use the pouch for number 2's only!

Well the council have decided to close 75% of the public loos in our city, I hope the planners have identified various hedges we can use.

I whip my little man out for a slash just about anywheres I can get away with it....or a pop bottle in the back of the van(I advise using Oasis bottles)they have a wider neck.... or you run the risk of spraying piss all over your bags and parcels.....for number 2s I've s**t in the middle of a Daily Sport on many an occasion simple closed the paper and whizzed it into a farmers field as I pass.....failing that Asda carrier bags come in handy....put your legs through the handles and pull all the way up like a pair of undies..drop your banker and away you go....pull off tie handles and bingo(I advise using Morrisons) they're a lot tougher.
