A start-up company has invented a toilet that tilts downward, making it uncomfortable to sit on for more than a few minutes, in order to increase “employee productivity.”
UK company Standard Toilet says that the new loo is sloped 13 degrees downward in order to put more pressure on the legs, making it painful to remain there. “
Anything higher than that would cause wider problems. Thirteen degrees is not too inconvenient, but you’d soon want to get off the seat quite quickly,” company founder Mahabir Gill told Wired Magazine.
Gill admits that the main benefit will be to employers frustrated at their staff spending too much time on their phones during bathroom breaks. More
What are they calling it, the Scrooge Loo? – Dr. Tar
Great get them installed in Washington – quick.
The cure for sh*thouse polio.
Anyone who works for someone who would buy these should quit.
That is saying I think an employee may be abusing the system so I am going to intentionally inflict pain on everyone.
…won’t work with me…I haven’t sat on a Company toilet since they went all Third Worldy, pretty good at squatting now, though, my legs are the best part of me…
…so what do we tilt to stop people from shitting in the streets?
Now there’ll be a whole new generation of skid marks.
…some may remember an earlier thread where I posted about there’s a REASON that the hardware stores display the toilets fairly high up and tilted at a sharp angle. That, too, is to prevent…deposits…and it works pretty well, at least with the people who are drunk enough to think shitting in a display toilet is funny, but probably not practical for daily use…

“…so what do we tilt to stop people from shitting in the streets?”
SF streets already severely inclined so this idea won’t work.
I guarantee that a FedGov employee would learn how to sleep on one, comfortably, within a fortnight.
GUARAN-fukkin-TEED.
And Demonrat staffers would learn how to shit off the side, onto the floor, just as quickly (they actually did this in the Rayburn Building some years ago).
izlamo delenda est …
Just do like some eastern countries do and use a hole in the floor you have to squat over then wash it down with a bucket of water.
Install it in congress.
I suggest they install a “punch before you pinch” time clock, so the miserable loafers could have time spent in the bathroom deducted from their paychecks. Bah, humbug!
Lawsuits will be forthcoming. Claims of leg problems, hemorrhoids, knee and foot pain. So many people will be on disability companies will have to hire even more people. Good Plan.

…now that you mention it, what’s up with THAT??? Many, many times over the years, I’ve been told that “Shit rolls downhill”. Has my whole LIFE been a lie?!?
…oh, the great imponderables of life…
Forget it, Supe, it’s Fecaltown.
