We got cute.
The signs say "Elk" and "Deer"
There are Males and females of each species, so the rest-rooms are now "unisex", right?
It's kind of fun watching people walk up to the restrooms, pause, scratch their heads, and then choose. Oddly enough, about 90% of the time women choose "Deer", and 90% of the time, men choose "Elk".
If I flip the signs over...
Almost 100% of women go to "Sheep" and almost 100% of the men go to "Goats".
The last couple days, we have had temperatures down to between -26 and -38, depending on which thermometer you believe. This morning the pipes in the walls of these restrooms have frozen and burst, so I had to shut the water off to them.
I think tomorrow I'll need to make up some new signs.
"Grizzly" and "Polar", because until I get the pipes fixed, it's the woods for everyone.
I hate plumbing.

Could it also be a Left/Right thing? It does seem like women's restrooms are usually on the right. But I must admit, I'd probably go into the deer versus the elk and the sheep vs th goat--they do kind of carry feminine and masculine qualities. I want to know what happens when you put up Grizzly and Polar--then I think it will definitely a left versus right issue because of those two, I'd choose Grizzly.
ReplyDeleteThat's funny. A nice touch, and it gives people something to talk about. At the office where I used to work, we sort of had a men's and a women's restroom, but because there were way more men in the office, it kind of turned into people using the small restroom without the window to do #1s and the big restroom with the window to do #2s.
ReplyDeleteYa know, I looked at those signs and kind of scratched my head too.
ReplyDelete...and then I used the 'deer' one. LOL
But I did take a look in the other one and figured it didn't really matter.
That's a bummer you are still dealing with plumbing issues. Seems that has taken up a lot of your time this winter.
Or is this just an excuse to hide from Juanita for an hour? ;-) (Just kidding, I know you wouldn't do that-giggles)
You had me thoroughly puzzled on that one... I washed my hands in the deer one and decided to become a lawbreaker and poke my head into the elk one ;)
ReplyDeleteAs far as plumbing... you just have to laugh at it by this point, no?
BECGm YES HE WOULD!! !LOL I hear she has quite the aim with that cane ;)
ReplyDelete(BTW, I used the ELK one ;) And THEN I looked at the signs!)
Sounds like you are going to need to add a new title there for sure Bill- Plumber is a valuable service. Just think of how much you are saving this winter instead of being a worthless wimp of a metrosexual "man" by being able to Cowboy Up and do the job yourself!
(Yeah. I know. Doesn't help much huh?)
LOL. Love the bear signs. Hate frozen pipes. Yikes! Good luck. Cold here, too. You will surely be a Master Plumber by winter's end.
