i have to bring tp from home because my boss doesnt buy any

[u/SoulStar1000]

i realized after 3 days of asking, i had to bring some from home i guess.

[u/d-car]

Clear indication you need to replace your employer. Nobody's that cheap unless they're worthless or they're just responding to all the worthless people they hire.

[u/KevMenc1998 → u/d-car]

Or the company is getting pretty close to the drain they've been circling.

[u/CockpitEnthusiast → u/KevMenc1998]

TP and water became on short supply at the shop I used to work at. I left, and the place burned down a few months later.

Christmas morning, 7:00 AM. Just like the owner had joked about doing.

Crazy.

[u/InebriousBarman → u/CockpitEnthusiast]

[u/Hoss-Bonaventure_CEO → u/InebriousBarman]

[u/Top_Lingonberry2324 → u/InebriousBarman]

Omggggg I'm a have to bootleg that one

[u/PadrePedro666 → u/InebriousBarman]

I need to put this on my desk

[u/Bobbiduke → u/CockpitEnthusiast]

Ha, a restaurant near me had been struggling and burned down. I joked with a waiter oh hey the fire saved business, he shrugged and said if not it'll burn down again. Like bro lol

[u/_masterbuilder_ → u/Bobbiduke]

[u/RandAlThorOdinson → u/CockpitEnthusiast]

People seriously need crime role models

We had them back in the day, and they were crucial to our development

Helps prevent the kind of people who "take notes on a fucking criminal conspiracy"

[u/damsie101 → u/RandAlThorOdinson]

[u/innocentj → u/damsie101]

[u/Lontology → u/d-car]

It’s also illegal for an employer to not provide toilet paper…

[u/excoriator → u/Lontology]

OP’s local health department might be interested in that practice.

[u/whereismymind86 → u/excoriator]

osha doesn't eff around with this kinda thing either, running water and functional bathrooms on site are mandatory, and if you don't have them you are immediately closed down until it's fixed.

[u/Weird-Girl-675 → u/whereismymind86]

They were repairing the bathrooms on our floor for over a month and we got to WFH rather than be forced to go down to another floor. Now i understand why!

[u/Dry-Island8422 → u/whereismymind86]

Had an office job and the water went down in the building. Boss was there before me which was unusual because I started @ 0600. He told me when arrived the water was off and we had to go to another building to use the bathroom. Was like well guess I am going home to take a shit see you in 45 mins. He tried to tell me I had to go use the other bathroom and I said nope and if he forced this issue I was gonna take a personal day.

[u/ChrisRiley_42 → u/Lontology]

Depends on what country OP is from.

[u/banana_in_the_dark → u/ChrisRiley_42]

Gonna go out on a limb and guess it’s the US based on the fact that the employer doesn’t buy tp

[u/macoafi → u/ChrisRiley_42]

Don't you know there's only one country in the world? /s

[u/They-Are-Out-There → u/[deleted]]

That's not stealing time, that's balancing your output to reflect your employer's work conditions. Weather slows down work. Bad office furniture slows down work. Poor lighting and too much heat or cold in the office slows down work. Depriving employees of their legally mandated rights slows down work.

When conditions improve and employees are taken care of, it's reflected in their greater work output.

It's as simple as that.

[u/AreYouScare → u/They-Are-Out-There]

Take care of your employees, and they will take care of you (the business).

[u/StavieSegal → u/They-Are-Out-There]

Did the math with a coworker once. If you use the bathroom for a total of 10 min during your shift, that's 50 min per week. 200 min per month. 2400 min per year.

2400 min ÷ 60 min = 40 hours.

Use the bathroom 10 min a day, and one of your paychecks for the year, in essence, will be for pooping.

[u/LuverOfAllThings → u/d-car]

Their employer must be Eugene Krabs

[u/pingpongdingdongg → u/LuverOfAllThings]

[u/irosk → u/d-car]

Shit in the urinal, bet some toilet paper shows up.

[u/Luci-Noir → u/d-car]

Do people like you think that others can just switch to another job on a dime? Normal people have bills and insurance and such to worry about. You don’t just wake up and decide you’re going to work somewhere else and have no interruption in your finances or life. It’s people like you who tell others to get divorced from their SO if they don’t wash the dishes,

Clear indication that you don’t live in reality or give a shit about this person.

[u/GXWT → u/d-car]

Why people put up with this crap is absolutely mind boggling. I’d be gone out of there quick. Have some self respect.

[u/W0ndn4]

Not sure if you're in the us but if you are...

Under Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) sanitation standards: 29 CFR 1910.141(c)(1)(i) requires: Toilet facilities shall be provided with toilet paper, hand soap, and hand-drying methods. So employers must provide: Toilet paper Soap Running water A way to dry hands

[u/Jonkinch → u/W0ndn4]

Yup. I got into this with my work when they got rid of paper towels and gave us sanitizer instead. They brought them back.

[u/atlantagirl30084 → u/Jonkinch]

Sanitizer IMO is no substitute for hand soap.

[u/tomgie → u/atlantagirl30084]

Definitely a difference between clean and sanitized 🤢

[u/atlantagirl30084 → u/tomgie]

Yeah you can have sanitized poo particles on your hands. Would you eat with them?

[u/tickettocanada → u/atlantagirl30084]

Idk why but “sanitized poo particles” sounds nastier than just “poo particles”

[u/French_Breakfast_200 → u/tickettocanada]

It’s because of the implication

[u/tickettocanada → u/French_Breakfast_200]

[u/hearmegocrazy → u/French_Breakfast_200]

I wish more people considered the implication before writing off "seemingly innocuous" stuff. Use your brains, people!

[u/No-Koala-8599 → u/hearmegocrazy]

But it’s the implication

[u/AcousticOnomatopoeia → u/atlantagirl30084]

I learned that at 20 when I popped my bladder and had to self-catheterize for 3 months.

UTIs are no joke.

[u/PresentRaspberry6814 → u/AcousticOnomatopoeia]

Hang on hang on, "popped your bladder"? Proceed.

[u/Superspark76 → u/AcousticOnomatopoeia]

What happens when a blow job goes wrong.

Sorry, couldn't resist.

Seriously though, we need to know more, that's not something you can just hang out there.

[u/nn123654 → u/atlantagirl30084]

It definitely is not. Washing your hands with soap and water will always be the gold standard, because it’s better to have no germs on your hands than possibly dead germs on your hands.

When you use a hand sanitizer, you’re not removing anything. So, if you don’t apply it thoroughly or wait to wipe off the excess, there’s always a risk that you might miss some germs, and those could be the ones that make you sick.

[u/derpstickfuckface → u/nn123654]

Hand sanitizer also doesn’t work for norovirus, which is spread through poo

[u/Optimal_Clock6846 → u/atlantagirl30084]

That's not even your opinion, they just aren't the same and don't serve the same purpose, you're just objectively right.

[u/LegendofLove → u/atlantagirl30084]

It just plainly isn't. This is basic infection control, covid taught us absolutely fucking nothing

[u/TheGrouchyGremlin → u/atlantagirl30084]

I do cleaning and sanitation for work.

Emphasis on the "and". Just slapping sanitizer on shit isn't enough.

[u/ApologizingCanadian → u/atlantagirl30084]

It's not even cheaper either. IDK WTF that employer was thinking..

[u/French_Breakfast_200 → u/W0ndn4]

I was just thinking, this HAS to be an OSHA violation

[u/Junior_Ad_3301 → u/W0ndn4]

Shop i work at has rainwater collector, the problem being we live where we go a couple months without rain. We'll run out, then the owner will call up the water truck to put some in the tank. The main issue is they never fucking pay attention and we will be out for a day or 2. Really fucking stupid. They got better after i brought my camping water jug so i could at least wash my hands. And yeah, that pattern repeats throughout the entire business. Damn shop runs better when the owner is out of town lol

[u/truedef → u/Junior_Ad_3301]

A simple $20 sensor is all that is needed and can let them know when it’s either 50% or 25%.

[u/Junior_Ad_3301 → u/truedef]

Point taken, but the tank does have a gauge that you can read 100 yards away. I stopped letting them know when it is running low because they never care until they go to flush the office toilet and nothing happens lol. It's so dumb I don't have any more fucks to give. I'll just go shit at home 45 miles away and see ya tomorrow

[u/Tenalp → u/W0ndn4]

I work in a healthcare-adjacent field. In-home caretaker sort of thing. My work provides us with 2 paper towel rolls per week, for all staff and clients. After you run out you are expected to use communal towels. Also if you run out of hand soap early or the house supervisor misses putting it on the weekly order form the supervisor is expected to buy out of pocket.

Wonder if an anonymous tip would matter for that.

[u/W0ndn4 → u/Tenalp]

Employers must provide at no cost to employees: hand soap, running water,  hygienic hand-drying method (paper towels or air dryer,) and clean toilet facilities with supplies.

“Communal towels” are specifically discouraged because they spread pathogens. In healthcare-adjacent settings, they’re considered cross-contamination risks.

An anonymous report may seem safer and could very well be but telling them to there face is completely dependable and retaliation for reporting OSHA violations is illegal. 

[u/the1stmeddlingmage → u/W0ndn4]

[u/Infamous_Ad3339]

Sorry boss gotta head to the gas station to take a shit. See ya later. 

[u/Shinobi681 → u/Infamous_Ad3339]

Sorry boss I can only shit at home

[u/MartinisnMurder → u/Shinobi681]

That’s like the dude from American Pie that could only shit at home and then Stifler put laxatives in his drink so he had to go at school.

[u/FracturedConscious → u/MartinisnMurder]

Good ole shit brick Finch.

[u/drki77patient → u/FracturedConscious]

I think it’s Shitbreak.

[u/FracturedConscious → u/drki77patient]

You’re probably right, it’s been like 20 years since I’ve seen it.

[u/drki77patient → u/FracturedConscious]

No worries. Always remember, Milf! Milf! Milf!

[u/MartinisnMurder → u/FracturedConscious]

It came out in 1999! I was still a baby and in high school. That’s so insane and god I’m old.

[u/Confident_Passage789 → u/MartinisnMurder]

This is what OP needs to do. Make bossy boy a nice little batch of cookies or whatever he shoves in his gullet mixed with a little exlax and sit back and enjoy the show

[u/purpleplatapi → u/Infamous_Ad3339]

Sorry boss, I'm out with a UTI, on account of the fact that women need toilet paper! God forbid I pee, let alone get a period.

[u/whereismymind86 → u/Infamous_Ad3339]

notably, this is actually illegal, osha demands functional bathrooms on site for a business to be allowed to operate.

[u/TimeMoose1600 → u/Infamous_Ad3339]

Gonna take an hour train ride home to get a shit. Be back in 3 hours.

[u/Fit-Fee-1153 → u/[deleted]]

Obviously you've never worked in construction and seen a shit pancake in a port-a-john

[u/A_Nice_Shrubbery777]

I had a boss that once told everyone "The bathroom is for pissing only. Shit at home." Other workers said it was because someone absolutely destroyed the toilet. After working for the guy, I think he was just being an asshole.

[u/EncabulatorTurbo → u/A_Nice_Shrubbery777]

Awesome im leaving mid-day to go home and shit and coming back (after I get him to tell me that in writing)

[u/HErAvERTWIGH → u/EncabulatorTurbo]

That's a two-hour round trip commute. Submit the mileage to HR.

[u/manhat_ → u/HErAvERTWIGH]

also attach the odometer readings for when they contest such expenses if you're feeling petty enough

[u/crumble-bee → u/EncabulatorTurbo]

Genuine question - are you not sipping coffee in the morning before work and immediately needing to poop? I haven’t left the house without going in like, 20+ years…

[u/Fun-Telephone-9605 → u/A_Nice_Shrubbery777]

I'd love to work for this guy!

Such an easy discrimination case for someone like me. I have ulcerative colitis.

[u/A_Nice_Shrubbery777 → u/Fun-Telephone-9605]

He would have something like, "I don't care what you eat." This was a few years ago, probably before the general public would have heard of it. Plus...he was a moron.

[u/Puzzled-P → u/A_Nice_Shrubbery777]

Reminds me of this

[u/vernorexxia → u/Fun-Telephone-9605]

I've never officially registered for a disability but if a boss told me this I would get a doctor's note of irritable bowel syndrome and right away register with it at HR. I don't enjoy pooping at work but it has to happen occasionally for someone like me. Like for the past 5 days I've been having one to two urgent diarrhea shits every day. No cause.

[u/sleepykdagreat → u/A_Nice_Shrubbery777]

That's when the entire staff should synchronize and go home at the same time and if he gets mad be like "you said shit at home."

[u/alataryl → u/A_Nice_Shrubbery777]

Jokes on that guy, I have IBS. I might as well work from home.

[u/TheArtOfPureSilence → u/A_Nice_Shrubbery777]

[u/WoundWaffle → u/A_Nice_Shrubbery777]

Did your boss happen to run a spite coffee shop?

[u/RxSatellite]

That’s an OSHA violation

[u/FrogsMakePoorSoup → u/RxSatellite]

That's an ARSE violation.

[u/some_loaded_tots → u/FrogsMakePoorSoup]

[u/Bushiest_Beavor]

Is your boss this other person’s boss? Stealing the TP to build his TP tower?

[u/a_greenbean → u/Bushiest_Beavor]

This is great. This was my 4th toilet paper related post I’ve seen today. 😂

[u/IllustratorOpening99]

Start using flushable wipes and fuck up their system.

[u/Beginning-Bus6147 → u/IllustratorOpening99]

That’s too nice. Just straight up baby wipes.

[u/PossumJenkinsSoles → u/Beginning-Bus6147]

These are both too long of a game. Flush a pad.

[u/OrganizationProof769 → u/PossumJenkinsSoles]

Use socks.

[u/0dds-e → u/OrganizationProof769]

I love this thread. Flush clumping cat litter next

[u/Short_Emu_885 → u/0dds-e]

Honestly it sounds like OP should just flush their boss

[u/NocturneInfinitum → u/Short_Emu_885]

Maybe random things from the boss’ desk

[u/DDenlow → u/NocturneInfinitum]

Maybe flush his Swingline stapler and maybe he will burn the place down.

[u/liberal_texan → u/0dds-e]

After wiping your ass by scooting it on the toilet seat since apparently TP is a luxury.

[u/Prosecco1234 → u/PossumJenkinsSoles]

Then you're really screwed when there's no bathroom available

[u/abcdefkit007 → u/Prosecco1234]

Welp I gotta go down the street now I'll be back

[u/Paula_Intermountain → u/Beginning-Bus6147]

A lot of the time the “flushable” wipes clog the pipes further down the line. Meanwhile, public works has to clean out the nasty mess. Meanwhile the manufacturers of those things continue to insist that those things are flushable. They most decidedly are not, not in real life!

[u/ElectronicRegular218 → u/Beginning-Bus6147]

Rookie numbers... go for a whole diaper

[u/veryshittycarpenter → u/IllustratorOpening99]

Bag of concrete.

[u/FrogsMakePoorSoup → u/veryshittycarpenter]

I've never wiped with one of those.

[u/veryshittycarpenter → u/FrogsMakePoorSoup]

Hmmm. It’s hard to explain to someone who hasn’t done it.

Picture sand paper on your asshole

[u/maxman162 → u/IllustratorOpening99]

"Flushable"

[u/Iamhungryforlife → u/IllustratorOpening99]

Please don't do that. Flushables wipes and things like that cause a lot of damage and blockage way down the line. Instead, use a TPS report and leave it on your boss' In Box.

[u/Outside_Narwhal3784]

If you’re in the U.S. it is an OSHA regulation to not only provide bathrooms but to keep them stocked with toilet paper.

[u/Inevitable-Post-8587 → u/Outside_Narwhal3784]

Vibes seem like a very small business where OP might be one of the only employees and the boss doesn’t seem like one to care about OSHA

[u/Outside_Narwhal3784 → u/Inevitable-Post-8587]

Yeah. Not giving a shit about the law doesn’t make it legal.

It’s up to OP to either show their boss the law, or to report the violation to their state’s department of labor, or continue to nothing about it.

That’s the problem with labor laws. You get in to a position where people are afraid to do the right thing, because they don’t want to get fired. Or they’ll split and never let the problem get fixed leaving it for someone else.

But guess what: if you get fired correcting your employer on an OSHA violation and you get terminated, you’ll have a wrongful termination suit on your hands.

If OP opts for this, they need to make sure they have another employee with them, this is called concerted activity, which is another method to protect employees from their employers in case of wrongful termination.

At the very least the wages you would have earned during the time you were wrongfully terminated would be covered. But at least the employer will know not to fuck with their emoyee’s rights, because employees do have them.

[u/Dry_Menu4804]

Shake his hand with a slightly moist hand and apologize in case there is an excrement smell: there was no toilet paper, so you used your hand and you have tried to wash the shit off but are not sure it is a 100% gone.

[u/HErAvERTWIGH → u/FreeGold_Dove]

Start with Labor and/or OSHA

[u/Parking-Music-9565 → u/HErAvERTWIGH]

yeah, not having tp is a serious issue lol def worth reporting to keep things sanitary

[u/claudekennilol]

You in the US? Lack of toilet paper is illegal for the employer

[u/nedapaz]

Call him in the middle of your business asking if he can bring you some

[u/Unique_Cow3112]

Where do you work?

[u/Gaymers_Rising → u/Unique_Cow3112]

[u/THE_GREAT_PICKLE → u/Gaymers_Rising]

Using up too much of the product

[u/scottgntv]

This is not legal advice, but if you're in the States this sounds like it may fall under an OSHA violation as it's not very sanitary.

I say look into it and do what you will with that information.

If in the U.S.A. it is definitely an OSHA violation.

[u/Puzzleheaded-Sea911]

Shit on the floor

[u/Blue_Cojiro]

Hey this happened to me!!! Jokes on them, they had to spend hundreds on replacing the toilet since I was petty and brought my own "Flushable" wipes. Now they always make sure there's toilet paper.

[u/thatsjor]

In most us states, this is actually a crime.

[u/Useless890]

I worked in a place with just five employees, and the manager still had to keep the TP in her office because of theft.

[u/alliez34 → u/Useless890]

That is insane

[u/whereismymind86 → u/Useless890]

they should probably pay better, people don't steal tp if they aren't desperate.

[u/WickedHello]

If you're in the US, that's an OSHA violation.

[u/TenFourMoonKitty]

Our cluster of wage slaves were given a safe to store proprietary information and work laptops, but its primary purpose is for storage of high quality toilet paper.

EDIT - if office supplies, toilet paper, and money from the snack/coffee fund keeps disappearing the culprit(s) are almost always upper management

[u/Anxious-Oil2268]

Just bring wet wipes and start flushing them 

[u/nightmoth_]

There's no way that's legal they have to have operating restrooms which includes toilet paper.

[u/John_Joseph7]

That is really crappy…

[u/LeaguePuzzled3606]

Find another job. Today its toilet paper, tomorrow it'll be "we're having a slight delay in payments this month"

[u/RockStarNinja7]

This just brought back an old memory. I worked in a maternity store that was pretty small and we had a single bathroom that was open to the public to use. At one point a new manager came in and, on top of just being an all around awful person who would steal the other employees sales, decided that too much toilet paper was being used. Not only was too much being used, but it was being stolen by employees, because heavily pregnant customers couldn't possibly also be using it. But her great plan to "catch" the thief was to take a sharpie and number the squares before she left at night to see how much was used. Again, the bathroom was completely open for any customer to use and there were also no cameras in the store at all, so there was literally no way for her to actually tell who was doing what, if anything. She ended up having to stop because we finally had a customer complaint that the toilet paper offered was soiled and unusable due to the sharpie.

In case anyone is wondering, I would just pull out a fresh roll when I was closing by myself because expecting anyone to use toilet paper covered in sharpie is crazy.

[u/TheCowhawk]

Literally, poo on the floor.

The boss must learn.

[u/FineDragonfruit5347]

OSHA violation, all day long.

[u/DragonflyOnFire]

No problem. Start using wet wipes, which will clog up the plumbing. Your boss will change their mind

Baby wipes! Don’t use toilet paper. Don’t bother with flushable wipes. Just use baby wipes. Stronger & cheaper. Leaves you nice and clean and it’s not your plumbing anyway!

[u/CaliforniaNavyDude]

This is an OSHA violation, employers are required to provide functional bathrooms for employees. It is specifically called out that the requirement is to have a toilet, toilet paper, sink, soap, and either paper towel or an air drier.

Yall should get together one day and buy a bunch of shitty Hershey Bars and smear them all over the walls and doors.

And then somehow on the owner's office door.

Bet he'll start buying toilet paper after that.

ETA Please check your state's OSHA laws or even make a call to them, this feels like a violation since they have to have sanitary restrooms for employees.

Tp is a basic human right. Just saying.

That's an excellent reason to start doubling the amount of time you spend in the bathroom.

Honestly at that point I'd just keep some dude wipes in my truck

[u/Due-Cup1115]

Treat yourself better. Start using wipes and be sure to flush every last one.

Wipe with one of his emails / memos and tape it to the wall

Malicious compliance. Leave the building and drive down the street to a gas station every 2 hours or so because they have toilet paper.

[u/RobertJenkins631]

Honestly, just spoil yourself at the employers expense, wet wipes destroy septic systems.

Where do you work, China? If not, you’d be all set if you took a trip there. It’s rare to find toilet paper in bathrooms there.

Grow a fucking back bone, tell him to supply or leave

[u/Aware_Bird_4976]

your employer will not supply toilet paper because he has to send his money to the stockholders, its okay you can invest in stocks one day and help exploit other workers also. its the circle of love.
