Here's another one. I've renovated a 515 room hotel a few years ago. The bathrooms had a spoon-shaped vanity, i.e., there was a narrow wall ledge above the toilet. Presumably the ledge was to serve as a shelf space for storage of nic-nacs, but of course nobody used it for fear that the things will fall into the toilet. The saddest thing was that these ledges were built too wide, which made it difficult for the the toilet seats to stand upright. So what do the guys do? Stand sideways and keep the seat up with one knee? Do it with one hand? Most men have trouble keeping it inside the bowl with two hands. We need to hire an instructor.
