It was an embarassment!
Let me tell your what happened on my second day at the factory at China.
After working for an hour, I felt a rumbling. Trouble! It is a sign that meant I need to visit the loo soon. Putting down my tools and informing my colleagues I will return soon without dwelling into too much specific of where I am going. I began my journey to my would-be smelly heaven.
No! No! No…..!
I quickened my pace and entered the toilet into a cubicle. Soon I was humming away happily minding my own business. Then I heard some soft voices which I did not really care.
Then like a lightning strike, I realized something was not all together right! Something was missing! What was it?
Damn! I don’t recall seeing any urinal as I entered the toilet. Was that female voices I hear just now? Shit! I hope I wasn’t humming too loudly just now. Scanning my cubicle, I saw a dustbin that I hope could prove my location. I opened the dustbin and I saw red.
“Oh Shit!” as I smacked my forehead. Wrong place I am! Finishing my business, I placed my ear against my cubicle door, spying for any female prescence. A flush I heard. Oh no! Someone else was in the toilet as well. Hope she didn’t figure out a guy was in the same toilet as she is.
I waited! Soon I hear faint footstep out of the toilet. I heard running water outside the toilet, assuming my counterpart was washing her hand. I waited still. The running water stopped. I waited still. I counted to ten. No! I did not hear anymore voices outside the toilet. No footstep! It is now or never!
Opening the door, I quickly walked out of my cubicle and into the corridor. I half expected someone would be there to witness my guilty face. Luckily no one was there. I turned around and I saw the female sign on top of the door which I just came out. And the male sign on top of the door adjacent it.
Sigh! Luckily no one saw me. Whew!
I remembered to wash my hand and quickly go back to work. I hope they did not notice my blushing face.
Chen Kee…
