People not washing hand after bathroom

[queenofnines]

A lot of people like to claim, "But I only peed, what's the point?!"

The point of washing your hands after going number one isn't because pee makes them "dirty", but because it is a good opportunity to clean your hands in general from the day's activities. Let's face it, when else do people really take the time to wash their hands?

That is so gross. Why would anyone not wash their hands?! Especially in public places like restaurants or shopping malls. I always use a paper towel to open the door after I wash my hands in a public place (I don't like using public restrooms so I avoid them as much as possible, even more so when they aren't very clean/nice looking). It's more of a challenge to open the door when there aren't paper towels, but I manage.

Forget not washing hands- what's even worse is not washing it properly.

I dont know how many times ive seen someone walk out of the stalls, just dip their hands in water for 2 seconds and walk out. 30 second rule people!

I've never actually seen this but I believe it.  If a person isn't concerned about it, why would they worry about others?  I've seen countless people be very protective of their computer (for instance) and then wave another's computer around like it's nothing.  I had a friend once take a microphone and swing it around by the cord.  If they can't see the value in the actual items they can see, why would they concern themselves with these possible items they may or may not be carrying.

It's really sad though cause it seems like most humans are only out for themselves.  I'm not saying drop everything to help others, but just don't go around hurting people at least.  I think washing your hands is a small thing we all can do to make the world a little better.

it should be a habit for people to wash their hands after using the bathroom. don't the people that don't feel icky?

I 100% know what you mean its just plan nasty once they come out and you see that they did not wash and they start touching stuff all over the place the DAM GERMS!!!!.

I guess I don't really pay attention.  There are worse things in the world to worry about.  It's different if a person works in food service.  I work at Walmart and 99% of the time there is NO soap and NO paper towels and I really don't want to just run my hands under cold water and then dry them on my pants.

This is the reason I don't like shaking hands with people.  I notice in bathrooms women run their hands under the water without using soap or don't even bother.  I don't eat other people cooking and that includes some of my relatives.  People just don't care about hygiene.  I even take wipes with me when I go shopping-thousands of people touch touch those carts.
