Denzel: Excuse me, where is the restroom?
Server: It’s down the hall, on your left.
Denzel: Thanks.
When I got into the bathroom, it was a mess. I walked into a stall and there was toilet paper all over the floor. There were no toilet seat covers and the toilet wouldn’t flush. Even the toilet seat was broken!
I gave up on the stall and decided 1 to use a urinal. I went to wash my hands, but there was no soap in the dispenser. I kept hitting the pump, but nothing came out.
When I turned on the faucet 2, water splashed all over my pants. I looked for some paper towels to dry myself, but they were out. I tried using one of the hand dryers 3, but that was broken, too.
I couldn’t believe what a mess this bathroom was. I just thought, what happened here? World War III?
