Lights out
So yesterday the lights went outside in the foyer area of our office, which also meant that the lights in the shared kitchen area was out and the toilets had no lights either.
Luckily for the kitchen and the toilets, there are windows(although it’s opaque) so when the lights all of sudden went dead- I wasn’t completely sitting in the dark.
Good thing- i couldn’t pee in my pants (in fear) hahaha- funny now, wasn’t funny when it happened.
Now the thing is with the ladies toilets is that to get out to the foyer area, you need to open 2 doors. Basically, whoever designed it figured that they didn’t want people to “walk” straight into the ladies toilets, so as you walk in, you almost walk into a small little room, then there’s another door to open the toilet/sink area.
Personally I think it’s a pointless design because the “room” you walk into isn’t big enough to even be a janitor’s closet but whatever.
Now-this little room doesn’t have any windows, and when the lights are out- if you’re not quick enough to open the second door to “light” then you’d pretty much be standing in the dark.
I already find the ladies toilets are tad creepy as it is- so I was struggling to go to the ladies toilets because I was already creeped out by the dark “foyer”/”hallway”. The only way to combat the “not standing in the dark” thing was to stretch out like I was in a yoga class as one door opened- I’d reach over for the other door handle and then when the door opened, I bolted out of the toilets like a scardy cat that I was.
I’m chicken as shit, seriously, so much so that when I realized this morning that the light issue still wasn’t fixed, I drank the minimal amount of water so that I wouldn’t be going to the toilet every 20minutes live I have been for the past 3 weeks.
Good news is- the electrician came in just now to fix it
Now I can go back to drowning my body in water
