    you gotta really question the mental wellness of someone who starts a company to produce a product that literally makes life worse for anyone that experiences it.

      I mean, I don’t take longer than a couple minutes to take a shit, but it does make it worse for those with health issues or trying to get a break with no other options

      Hus has Crohn’s. That’s covered by the ADA for now. Anyone with an IBD should join that lawsuit.

    I’d just start going to a restroom elsewhere with normal seats and take even longer breaks just to send them a message

    I think I first saw this a decade ago.

    Edit: And in that decade, not even a single post about those toilets being installed anywhere. Not one peep.

    Guys, guys! Take it from an American: Don’t be like us. This is some shit our employers would do.

    I know our lifestyle looked fun and enviable once we grew up and left the kingdom to live on our own. And it’s not all bad, but mistakes were made!

    Wouldn’t a couple of small blocks under the seat just fix this “problem”.

    I mean I’m surprised they just don’t put those homeless spikes on the seat.

        Or just bring a shitting stool to work. Label it a shitting stool. Talk to your coworkers about your new shitting stool. Tell them about the comforts of your elevated knees and how easily your stool slides out from your briefly exposed anus. Recommend shitting stools to management. Secretly sell shitting stools under the guise of girl scout cookies. Keep the best shitting stools for yourself. Give the squeakers to management. Let them understand the shame of an office fully aware of the state of their rectum. They replace the toilets to save face. People continue using your shitting stools because they enjoy feces expediently sliding out of their rectums. You’ve won

    I have a medical condition that makes it difficult for me to defecate, so doing so often takes 20m or more.

    I usually doo on my own time (because, like, ethic or whatever), but even so, this seems actively hostile to me and I wonder if there’s a legal remedy.
