And they think Aspies exhibit strange behavior!

A bizarre sign, apparently an attempt to deter workers from taking long breaks, was posted on the bathroom door of an unidentified place of business.

It read "If in Bathroom for more than 10 minutes, a smell check will be completed to ensure employee not sitting on phone. If it does not stink, Employee will be reported to office."

“Who is the lucky employee entrusted with this noble task?” one Redditor commented.

Another joked: “I'd stop flushing just in case.”

Another Redditor seeking clarification said: “Wait, so if it stinks then you don't get in trouble but if it doesn't you do... ?”

“This is an obvious joke, no?” another commented, obviously not believing what they just read.

“Thinking this may be a good time to look for a new job.”

The proper response:

Are you s---tting me?

Unless they propose to measure particles per billion before and after, they can't justify it

It appears Faux News fell for someones nonsense reddit post. The door that the notice is taped on does not look like a bathroom door at any business I have ever been to.

One time I was in the bathroom for more than 10 minutes at work because I was having sinus trouble (minor nosebleed). Sinuses don't produce smell.

And I've had times where I've been so uncomfortable with constipation that I had to sit on the toilet for a while but nothing would happen. So that wouldn't have produced a smell either.

Easily rectified

I can't take this seriously,
But advise people to eat a lot of meat,
Just in case.

I didn't know they made that but not surprised. I'd release a stink-bomb or I'd just eat baked beans every day & have really stinky farts & sticky sh!ts that take over 10 minutes just to wipe so I'd spend 2wice as much time in the bathroom. My digestive system is not rite.

I'd also suggest keeping some poo in a bag and carrying it around with you.
Keep some in the freezer, just in case you run out.

O sh*t...

And should you collapse and die in there, they won't remove you until a strong pong sets in...

Rather,
I think they will report you to HR for not stinking fast enough.
Smear some poo on your shoes.
That will do the trick.

P1: A smell is required if more than 10 minutes is spent in the shite house.
P2: An alert will be sent to HR if no smell is detected after this time.
ergo
C: Constipation is hazardous to your job security.

P.S.
Don't you just feel for the person who has to sniff around?
