Just Use The Floor

Once upon a time, I used to work in a clothing store as an assistant manager in training. One busy Saturday, I was supervising the staff and taking care of the change rooms when one woman walked in with her little boy and wanted to try on a few things. I set up a change room for her and she went in with her little boy. While I was waiting for people to finish with the dressing rooms, I overheard the little boy saying to his mom, “I really have to pee mommy!” to which she responded, “Just wait, I’m almost done,”

Not a minute after that, the little boy said to his mom again, “I reeeeeeeally have to go to the bathroom!!” and this time, you could hear the mother’s frustration in the form of her growling and getting frustrated with her child. So, instead of changing back into her normal clothes and taking her kid to the bathroom, her response to this was, “Just pee in here then,”

The store I worked at wasn’t like a freaking thrift store or anything; this was a fairly high-end clothing store in a high-end mall with high-end clientele. Imagine my surprise when I hear the kid taking off his pants and ACTUALLY peeing on the floor. I knocked on the door and asked for the woman to leave the store. She came out of the dressing room and there was a huge puddle of kid pee all over the floor. The woman didn’t even offer to clean it up, she just took her kid by the hand and walked out of the store like nothing had happened and left us to clean up her mess.
