I'd agree on reading comprehension. He called out and an employee told the head clerk by radio. The head clerk did nothing initially because he thought it was a joke. He didn't hear the guy calling out himself. When he realized that it was for real, he called an ambulance. That sounds responsive to me, after an initial confusion which I grant is more than understandable. People don't get glued to public toilets very often. Fifteen minutes may be long to a guy glued to a toilet, and I can understand his being upset; but 15 minutes isn't very long for a response to a very unusual semi-emergency. The suit is frivolous, and I hope they don't bother with the trial.
From what Rich and Mark were saying about this, the guy was recovering from bypass surgery and passed out when he finally got some help/was being 'rescued'. What a weird story. But yeah, some of those Home Depot employees have a problem.
If I do take a crap in a public restroom, I look at the toilet seat to make sure that there is nothing on there at all, maybe he didn't care if he sat in piss or what.
i used to work carts at target as one of my first high school jobs, and part of my job was all the dirty work in the store. including cleaning the bathrooms. the sheer amount of strange ass weirdos i would see every day is ridiculous. when i cleaned the men's room (every hour) i wouldnt have to wait for everybody to leave, id just clean around and if some guy was using the toilet, i just wouldnt clean that particular stall. one time, some dude runs out of the stall when he hears my walky go off. he was sweaty, nervous, and hadn't flushed. he stared at me for a second, and then ran out of the bathroom. literally ran. that was just one instance. people are strange. so if i was cleaning and some dude was yelling that he was stuck on the toilet, theres no way in hell you could make me go in there. id call someone, but ive seen too many strange things that theres no way in hell you could make me open up a stall with a dude screaming that hed been glued to the seat. there's a reason i could only stand that job for like two months.
