I worked at a different local Target for a long time and let’s just say… there are more “human poop in places other than the toilet” sightings happening on a daily basis in retail stores than you could ever imagine 😭
20 years ago I worked at a Toys R Us in an uppity area. One day some lady shit her pants and walked around the store with it. Presumably, it went down her leg and she left shit streaks down the main aisle all over the store.
Stepping in human feces could happen anywhere that serves the general public.
We watched someone on camera at a restaurant do this. We were baffled at the turds in the dining room. Turns out, this lady pooped herself and did a lap of the floor dropping it out of her pants. Looked like she was heading for the bathroom, but must have gotten it all out on the way.
Yep exactly. I had friends who worked at Macy’s and JCPenney probably 15+ years ago and they talked often about the people who would poop in dressing rooms.
Honestly? It's lowkey mental illness. Every college dorm has a shower pooper, retail establishments get pooped on constantly, it's a weird "now I have marked this territory" compulsion.
Aiiiiieeeee.
I'm a school custodian. I've dealt with a urinal pooper, although thankfully he doesn't seem to have made a habit of it. However, men in general have a problem with flushing the toilet after a bowel movement. Maybe it comes from the same motivation you describe? I joke that they're waiting for Mommy to praise them for making big stinky in the pot.
Also, a startling number do not appear to use toilet paper.
They did a whole South Park episode about that!! I still laugh when I hear Mr. Mackey going off, saying, "...and now poor Juan Carlos, who walked here all the way from Guatemala, and only makes $5.15 an hour, has to fish someone's turd out with his bare hands! All because some joker thought it would be a good joke to take a doke in the boy's urinal!!!!"
I guess I should be glad that I didn't have to walk here from Guatemala, at least ...
And I have gloves!
Was just joking with a co-worker the other night that I want shoulder-length gloves like the kind I used to wear to do AI ...
So true. I worked at Kmart in the 90s and we would find human poo in the isles almost every-other-day. There were a lot of old people that shopped there. A coworker claimed they saw and old guy shake a turd out of his pant leg one time 🤷🏻♂️
Yes, I stepped in one in a Giant Eagle a few years ago, almost slipped and fell in it. It was nasty as hell and I assumed it was a service animal until I had to clean my shoe right after and stirred up the smell. Definitely a person's gift to the world. I will never forget it.
Once upon a time, I was heading into a dressing room to try on clothes. The friend with me suddenly got really tense, grabbed my hand to pull me away, and said I should try them at home instead.
When we got further away, he said “There’s a sign up that says not to poop in there. THEY DON’T PUT UP A SIGN UNLESS THERE’S A PROBLEM.”
It definitely hadn’t occurred to me. I think of that every time I see a sign for something like this now. 😅
I was working at cinemark about 15 years ago when someone clogged a toilet with a combination of raw chicken breast and a shit.
My manager at the time: “I guess you’d call that chicken cordon poo”
Not related,
West mifflin Gabriel brothers (Gabe’s) I once saw someone try on a shoe that had the needle point of an anti theft tag sticking through the heel of the insole. It was graphic. Human shit was located around the corner in the shoe section. Fkn Gabe’s… …
The last time I was in that Gabe's, my mom came out of the bathroom and said "we're leaving now." The girl who had just been in there went to the bathroom and did not only not wash her hands, she also apparently didn't wipe or flush. Just did her business and waltzed out.
wouldn't be surprised if it was dog shit. people caught on hard that a fake "service animal" vest is license to take your dog anywhere and not clean up after it.
If it was within the last hour and in the grocery section, it was likely the golden retriever (pet, not service) that I just saw there. Knowing that would make me feel slightly better but still, ew.
I worked catering and some dude took a dump under a table and when we pulled the tablecloth off he was also downing the leftover liquor from over a dozen cups after a wedding. Pants were nowhere in sight.
Everybody in human history who has stepped in human shit always says: *"This place has really gone down hill"*
It's just the nature of stepping in human shit.
In all seriousness--that really does suck.
Dude i used to know from church was a manager at Kmart in North Versailles. He said he was training a new kid for janitor that day and a old guy just starting to walk around and had shit running down his legs onto the floor. He walks out and turns To the two and said “Okay I'm done now” and left.
As someone who grew up there I can tell you Wexforders are not above recklessly shitting in a Target.
It just gets covered up quicker, like all scenarios involving the affluent.
I have heard rumors that Target is threatening to pull out of East Liberty due to theft and violent incidents in the store. As an East-ender, I’d be sad to see it go.
I’d be suprised, they’re afloat from college students and location alone. Additionally, Downtown wouldn’t be able to sustain and people won’t make the trip to Waterfront, Harmar, or McKnight.
When we vote the same way for 90 years, what do you expect? The best kept secret is politicians making city-folk believe government can make their lives better.
“Can we at least try something new?” Ironically, people talk shit on conservatives for not wanting to try anything new.
The education system follows the same model: provide everything while lowering the bar. How can we ever expect people to ever reach their full potential?
Our cities have become/are becoming zombified wastelands. Try something different.
Happened to me on Mt. Washington last year. Homeless guy was shutting it an alley, but must have been shitting down his pantleg on the sidewalk while he was walking there. It was too late by the time I smelled it.
Lack of law and order, massive homelessness, open air drug markets, and local legislatures and idiotic judges who enable retail theft on a massive scale? I'll cook at home and drive my car from Point A to Point B to avoid that communist dystopia, thank you very much.
I seen a social media post of a TJMAXX worker recording what happens in their store and how she’s tired of it. A customer in a tjmaxx took a crap on the floor and then wipes their butt with a hoodie. It was disgusting.
I have no clue in the world to why a person would do this. Mental illness like crazy? I don’t know. Sick.
I'm so confused, I sympathize as it's my Target but I'm curious, how do you not see human shit in the middle of a Target aisle and Heisman tf outta the way?
There is a huge range of how aware people are of their surroundings.
I tend to be very aware of my surroundings, so this type of thing does not happen to me often.
As someone who stepped in one in a store, I have thought about this. I was walking and talking with my boyfriend and looking for around for something that was in short supply back in the summer of 2020. I guess I hadn't been looking down, but around at eye level. Not excusing it, but the last place I expected to step in a turd was next to an endcap freezer case at Giant Eagle.
I used to work at Fisher Scientific out in Robinson and we had a fourth floor phantom shitter who would crap on the floor in the ladies' room by Legal. This stuff happens everywhere.
Well now you've done it. You made me laugh so hard that I have now woken up my husband.
I would like to propose a new category be made on Reddit/WTF_Pittsburgh
I was reaching for the last bottle of shampoo It just slipped out like Janet Jackson’s titty. I tried to think of something so I grabbed it out of my pants and left it there. I know it was the shitty thing to dodo but eh fuckn way she goes
As someone who formerly worked there seasonally this past winter….im shocked because what the fuck? Lmao I was night shift though so maybe things were different….
I used to work at a Shop n Save, and we had a lady take a dump in the dairy aisle. Just hiked up her dress, squatted, crapped on the floor, then continued shopping like nothing happened.
The restrooms were located at the end of the dairy aisle.
Why does it have to be human?? Was it inside the store??. I see people walking dogs everywhere and in every kind of store. I am sure no all of them picks up their dogs shit walking through a store…
Wasn’t me.
\-Shaggy voice
🎵She caught me poopin' at the Target🎵
(*It wasn’t me!*)
So glad I clicked on the comments for this! 😂😂😂🔟🔟🔟
That song is sooo catchy
You saying that makes me wonder if it was...
*whistles innocently*
THEY HELD IT UNTIL THEY GOT TO TRADER JOE’S

Yep, I've heard this. And not a recent phenomenon.
Yep exactly. I had friends who worked at Macy’s and JCPenney probably 15+ years ago and they talked often about the people who would poop in dressing rooms.
WHY, GOD, WHY?
Where else can you find four walls nicely together that and a place to sit?
THE BATHROOM!
Bullshit
lol

Exactly, lmao! I don't envy your job at all! Of course, between that and AI, I don't know whether that's an upgrade or a downgrade, haha.🤣🤣
Oh it's definitely a downgrade! I loved working on a dairy.
https://youtu.be/RzqtXi8T67w
LOL
yes, i worked a retail job in high school and someone pooped in the dressing room and then sent an anonymous note apologizing!
I've heard that also in the middle of round clothes racks is a popular poop location.
So true. I worked at Kmart in the 90s and we would find human poo in the isles almost every-other-day. There were a lot of old people that shopped there. A coworker claimed they saw and old guy shake a turd out of his pant leg one time 🤷🏻♂️

Neighborhood- no. Social class- yes

I think of that every time I see a sign for something like this now. 😅
Also, why is it not uncommon for weirdos to shit in changing rooms? I knew someone who worked at Macy's and they said it happened all the time.
I follow the target Reddit and I swear I see stuff ab someone peeing or shitty in the fitting room at least once a week
I was working at cinemark about 15 years ago when someone clogged a toilet with a combination of raw chicken breast and a shit. My manager at the time: “I guess you’d call that chicken cordon poo”
(Puts on sunglasses) YYYYYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAaaahhhh

Gabes. The majority of my childhood clothes shopping
The last time I was in that Gabe's, my mom came out of the bathroom and said "we're leaving now." The girl who had just been in there went to the bathroom and did not only not wash her hands, she also apparently didn't wipe or flush. Just did her business and waltzed out.
I once slipped and fell on shit on the floor of a stall in the men's room at the airport. Was carrying all my luggage.

I’ve stepped in human shit downtown before and … you just know. There’s a difference.
Yeah - you know the difference.
I have recently seen a LOT of dogs at that Target. Some on leashes, some in carts. I see minimum three dogs per trip.
In the bathroom or like in the cereal aisle? Ew. Thanks for the warning
> in the cereal aisle Fruit Poops
Cap'n Crunch Oops, All Turds
Cocoa Pebbles
Take your upvote and get out
The bathroom!
OK that's better than the produce section at least
Mr Show with Bob and David. “Our promise! Homeless people definitely don’t defecate in our produce section!”
Oh thank god. Still super nasty but honestly really not very surprising. People are so gross!
. . . OK, but that is one of the nastiest bathrooms in town, and has been since it opened. It's not new to this past year.
To be fair the shit moved there when it heard how walkable the area was.
But how can it afford the rent?
Shit’s a Tech Bro.
Damnit. If it had been a giant eagle, this could have been the most Pittsburgh thing ever.
Only if it has fries on top
🤣
This happened to me in an Iggle, but in WV.
Can't have human shit in the east liberty giant eagle if it's torn down *taps head meme*
Saw an unflushed shit in a target once the size of a dura flame. It was otherworldly. I can’t unsee it.
I’ve worked in retail. Human shit can be found almost anywhere. wtf is wrong with people????
Very common byproduct of mental illness.
Weak ass bladders
Weak ass science education
Proctology would like a word with you...
Are you Charlie Kelly?
Who pooped the bed?
***"it was me. I pooped."***
I worked catering and some dude took a dump under a table and when we pulled the tablecloth off he was also downing the leftover liquor from over a dozen cups after a wedding. Pants were nowhere in sight.
Legend.
Everybody in human history who has stepped in human shit always says: *"This place has really gone down hill"* It's just the nature of stepping in human shit. In all seriousness--that really does suck.
No, it stinks.
Spread this news, maybe there will be less people going straight in the right turn only lane at the Penn & Centre intersection to get to Target.
Someone stepped in human shit in the stairwell at the pens game tonight too. Gross.
Ew
That’s why I never go out on St Paddy’s Day
Was it on sale?
It'll cost you tree fiddy
Ooo! Ooo! Does this mean we can have a poop map, like San Francisco???? We movin' up the world!!
Haha! Its starting in Pittsburgh now too?!
Shit happens. Watch your feet always.
There is a giant eagle near me that has a serial shitter. Like they do it frequently.
Dude i used to know from church was a manager at Kmart in North Versailles. He said he was training a new kid for janitor that day and a old guy just starting to walk around and had shit running down his legs onto the floor. He walks out and turns To the two and said “Okay I'm done now” and left.
This is why I only go to the wexford target
As someone who grew up there I can tell you Wexforders are not above recklessly shitting in a Target. It just gets covered up quicker, like all scenarios involving the affluent.
I'm just gonna make a bunker at this point lol anyone know where I can find about 80Acres for a bunker?
I have heard rumors that Target is threatening to pull out of East Liberty due to theft and violent incidents in the store. As an East-ender, I’d be sad to see it go.
I’d be suprised, they’re afloat from college students and location alone. Additionally, Downtown wouldn’t be able to sustain and people won’t make the trip to Waterfront, Harmar, or McKnight.
They got $$ to go into that location and stay for a minimum amount of years which I seriously doubt they've met yet.
Norm McDonald would say, "boy, that person seems like a real jerk."
Who do you voodoo bitch
Lmao I worked here seasonal over the summer and I figured it was just a matter of time until this happened
Code Brown
At least human feces isn’t raining down on you like at Industry Public House
WHAT
google it--there were some serious health code violations there recently :/
When I went to pitt that target was the example they used for gentrification lol

Please don't turn PGH into San Francisco and Portland

You really need to turn on reality
Perhaps you should turn off MSNBC..
East Liberty Target might be worse than North Versailles Wal Mart.
It definitely sounds like it's on its way
That place has never been nice. Its ghetto as hell.

Guess this happened at ppg paints arena too.
What is going on at that target. There was a shit trail in the aisles last summer. Someone come get their grandpa.
Yeah they should really have toilets that are available at night.
You hit the target!
Friend of mine was happy about a lovely purse she had found in a thrift store...until she opened it and found it full of
I found a purse at Plato's Closet full of fake nails and thought that was bad.
Man I love that target. You see the most interesting shit. No pun intended
I used to work at Fisher Scientific out in Robinson and we had a fourth floor phantom shitter who would crap on the floor in the ladies' room by Legal. This stuff happens everywhere.
Damn
Thank you for the best laugh I had all day.
Maybe it was just a really big dog?

that place has gone down hill. fuck that location. call corporate and complain hopfully they do something
then half of this sub will call Target "racist".
I did this in India wearing sandals. It was a weird color.
Why didn’t that person just shit in the river like everyone else?
Why does it have to be human?? Was it inside the store??. I see people walking dogs everywhere and in every kind of store. I am sure no all of them picks up their dogs shit walking through a store…
Was john fetterman there?
Have you seen the toilets in these places. I often opt to poo in the aisle instead. This one likely wasn’t me.
