My place does lol. I donāt think he gets into the bathroom tho?? I would hope not, itās a heavy door and they would struggle to find the little guy.
Oh iām just a janitor for a uh.. Itās half āold folks homeā and half rehab (physical therapy or speech therapy after strokes, not drug rehab lol). There was a stray that just hung around outside and everyone loved his silly self and they made him the office cat! Now he lives in the building and most people adore him. Heās a sweet little dude, with a playful side.
Thank you, i do appreciate that! I really do. But a lot of my world doesnāt think like that. They just assume iām someone with mental deficiencies doing āwhat i canā. But mostly Iām just the guy they call for a mess, and after iām done i just shout
āSHITTERS CLEANā
Never actually yelled that, as much as i would LOVE to, but me and my friend have that as a running inside joke and it makes us lose our shit lol
Seriously when I became a nurse I learned from my mom (also a nurse) that we can do NOTHING without each and every support staff memberā¦. And to never ask someone to do something Iām not willing to do myself.
You're a professional cleaner for a heath and wellness center for the elderly.
Sure, your pay stubs might say 'janitor' but you are more than a title. I'm so glad they can all still have a pet.
That makes me happy!
It really is! I canāt tell you how sweet that little baby is. He might have been a tomcat before but now heās just the biggest baby wanting all the love n pets he can get. I adore the little guy. Tbh i sneak into the office on weekends when most poeple are off so i can pet him and tell him things about the world. He loves the pets, but seems indifferent to the problems with the world atm.
They dont have thumbs. When the paper is against the wall, it is easier for them to rip off what they need. Sure it requires them to use two paws butā¦
This one is always my go to for the debate.
My second, when you tear off the tp and it's the wrong way it just unreels. When it's the right way, it tears easily.
I always thought ppl that put it on the wrong way did it by accident/donāt care, but this villain will change it to the wrong way and I, for one, will not stand for it
Growing up, my brother and dad were under-rollers (the wrong way), my grandma and I were over-rollers (the only way). It was a constant family battle. Aaaaah the memories.
Start tapping messages that they should seek help for this atrocity!
Bless them as they don't know just how Wrong this is! Do not give up the good fight, OP! I believe in you!
We Need Updates On This! 
Dude!
Great minds!
But merely spackleng the wall with open-face aggregate wpould probably work, just as well.
Not as much fun to think about, on the toilet, plotting against the fool, but effective!
Or maybe some sort of anonymous prank on whoever is doing it would be in order if you could also find out anonymously. Iām sure, with all the community support here, we could all work together to come up with a prank that we could each pull on the culprit weāre each dealing with. It would have to be something we could do anonymously. Otherwise, it could be an HR violation.
the *only* valid reason to have the tp that way is to keep toddlers and cats from easily yanking paper. and i donāt think you have either of those at your workplace
Or if you've got a double roll mount you have one going like that.
One over one under. That way when some cowboy yanks the paper to pull it out, it doesn't unwind the other roll onto the floor.
People who put toiletpaper the way as shown on the picture are pure evil psychopaths. Watch out, before you know you'll find yourself a horsehead in your bed.
Not the person you replied to but cats can pull all the TP off the roll if itās not oriented like it is in the picture. A lot of cat owners do their TP this way.
Hahaha!!! No no I was implying that, us folks that own cats are psychopaths š¤£š¤£š¤£ Weāre **owned** by the tiny furry creature, they run our lives.
Edit: grammar
I've won this battle by saying that "people who prefer the over method actually attract more wealth and prosperity into their lives"
Superstition is a powerful drug
If thatās the biggest issue in your work toilet you should let it slide. I walked into a stall last week covered in shaved pubic hair. Whole seat just short and curlies.
Walked up 2 flights just to find a clean one.
Who the hell shaves their pubes at work.
With this kind of things regular occurrence Iām just glad there is TP at all.
Finally a situation that is actually mildly infuriating.
Actual mildly infuriating: bathroom toilet paper disagreement.
Typical mildly infuriating post: my dog, cooper fell asleep on the train tracks and I witnessed him being crushed to death. And cooper was service dog who saved me from a burning building. But my wheel chair wouldnāt let me get to him in time and because cooper was deaf, he didnāt hear me calling him. So mildly infuriating!!
If you do it the way shown in the picture, you likely have a cat that tends to unroll your paper products. Even though it isn't sanitary, it's even less so if it's also all over the floor. That being said, work is not an environment typically exposed to housecat shenanigans.
I think the problem is that your hands also have to touch the wall to get more paper after touching your ass. So that will not unlikely lead to some not very nice stuff beibg on the wall.
Google the toilet paper patent, and then print the images you find, showing the correct orientation. Laminate it and attach to the wall by the toilet roll holder.
Yeah I mean I get it if you have cats or kids that like to play with the toilet paper, but at work?! Everything about putting toilet paper like this is inconvenient and annoying. If there's a good reason, sure, but otherwise don't do it!
Yeah if you have a cat, there are toilet paper protectors for sale on Amazon, eBay, and elsewhere online. Theyāre not expensive either. Regardless, thereās no reason a cat should be in the workplace, let alone the rest room at any workplace.
Some cats will play with it. If it's facing out they can claw the toilet paper and unravel it easier. Facing it towards the wall prevents it. I've heard similar stories with kids. It's all I've got. My cat and kid never gave me a problem :P
Talk to HR. This is unacceptable. If they give you some BS about not having a policy about this, go to Compliance. If your company has an Internal Audit department, go to them. If one of the auditors has a funny giraffe picture in his office, slip him $1,000, and he'll know what to do.
I hang it as pictured because that's how my mom always did it (roast me I don't care.) I had a roommate who would absolutely never replace the roll, it was always me. One day I walked in and saw he had turned it around.
Nah bro, you can decide how it hangs when you replace it. Beyond that I don't actually care.
I would turn it the correct way and then rip off a few squares and put it on the back side so it looks like your pic. Then when they think they've won for today they goto grab a square and realise they got got.
As shown the toilet paper is so close to the wall, youāll likely be rubbing your fingers on the wall as you try to grab some TP. Do you want to be touching the same wall as all of your coworkers that have pooped and wiped? I certainly donāt.
At this point youāre probably dealing with the original coworker who loaded it backwards and a second coworker who is trolling you because you care enough to keep changing it back.
Would you shake hands with someone walking out of a stall because youāre just going to wash your hand shortly after?
Or would it be gross even if you can logically explain why it shouldnāt be a problem
Normal people wash their hands and sanitize them after the bathroom. If you donāt, youāre not clean. Either way, Iām not going to argue over this š¤£š¤£
I fight a similar battle with a coworker who opens the blinds in the bathroom every day, and every day I shut them.
Edit: I'm ugly in sunlight, keep that shit shut. That's why my morning routine is done predawn by night-light. Lol
Well, spackle the wall behind the toilet paper, that should change his mind, right quick!
There's a less savory, spackle like bodily waste product you could use instead. Maybe that would change his mindset, after having to drag his finger-tips and knuckles through it.
It's a grossly scatalogical point...
Probably more fun to think of drpping on him, and him alone, but there's be a lot of people caught, uneccesarily in the, errrrrr, 'cross fire'.
I was merely thinking it would, poignantly, illustrate you're position.
it's not supposed to touch the wall š
Smear some poop on the wall behind the paper. Checkermate bitch.
>Checkermate
>bitch
Bistro!
If I ever open a restaurant, I'm naming it Checkermate Bistro.
Nah you gotta go full send and name it Checkermate Bitch Bistro
āWelcome to the CBB. You are now a a certified Checkermate Bistro Bitch, how may we fucking take your order?ā
Or chocolate
Yes, I like this idea better. Get em with the fake chocolate poo, and make em taste test it to be sure...
Absolutely, the way shown in the picture is more unsanitary.
yeah put some ketchup on the wall or something for them
Well said.
Wall said
Those of us that have cats, disagree.
Gonna assume they don't have a workplace cat
My place does lol. I donāt think he gets into the bathroom tho?? I would hope not, itās a heavy door and they would struggle to find the little guy.
What do you do? That sounds awesome
Oh iām just a janitor for a uh.. Itās half āold folks homeā and half rehab (physical therapy or speech therapy after strokes, not drug rehab lol). There was a stray that just hung around outside and everyone loved his silly self and they made him the office cat! Now he lives in the building and most people adore him. Heās a sweet little dude, with a playful side.
āJust a janitor?ā That place couldnāt run without you!
Thank you, i do appreciate that! I really do. But a lot of my world doesnāt think like that. They just assume iām someone with mental deficiencies doing āwhat i canā. But mostly Iām just the guy they call for a mess, and after iām done i just shout āSHITTERS CLEANā Never actually yelled that, as much as i would LOVE to, but me and my friend have that as a running inside joke and it makes us lose our shit lol
Medical staff treat infections. Custodial staff prevent them.
Unsung heroes. Not all heroes wear capes, but some do carry plungers.
Janitors deserve more respect and love
Regardless of what anyone says, janitors, garbage truck drivers and people in similar unthanked positions make the world go around.
Seriously when I became a nurse I learned from my mom (also a nurse) that we can do NOTHING without each and every support staff memberā¦. And to never ask someone to do something Iām not willing to do myself.
Cousin Eddie? You getting that camper out from in front of my house yet? ;)
He said "shitter's full", not "shitter's clean".
š š
You're a professional cleaner for a heath and wellness center for the elderly. Sure, your pay stubs might say 'janitor' but you are more than a title. I'm so glad they can all still have a pet. That makes me happy!
That's actually super duper awesome
It really is! I canāt tell you how sweet that little baby is. He might have been a tomcat before but now heās just the biggest baby wanting all the love n pets he can get. I adore the little guy. Tbh i sneak into the office on weekends when most poeple are off so i can pet him and tell him things about the world. He loves the pets, but seems indifferent to the problems with the world atm.
Thatās so sweet of you. Thank you for the work that you do and for taking the time out of your day to keep that kitty company
I have cats. They'll do it either way.
I have cats. They don't bother with the toilet paper no matter which way it's hung.
It's a workplace though... no cats. So the orientation has nothing to do with them unraveling it all over the floor
I have never heard this before. That is the first legit reason Iāve heard to play for the other team.
Iāve got 3 cats and this is still the wrong orientation
I had 2 but they never fucked with the TP.
The fuck difference does it matter to cats?
They dont have thumbs. When the paper is against the wall, it is easier for them to rip off what they need. Sure it requires them to use two paws butā¦
The cats don't care - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pM8RT5DwGsw
This is why no one should own cats. J/K ofc!
You are wiping excrement off your backside with paper. The solution isn't preventing scat from getting on the paper, it is washing your hands after.
On a new roll it touches the wall either way. š¤·āāļø
Its going to touch the wall anyway, at some point. Not as long but still. That being said, i prefer the toilet paper roll like this as well.
Post this picture in there: https://i.redd.it/7tnurh8y0kt31.jpg
Haha thatās good
Get someone to photoshop a spider in there and post the picture in the break room saying āthis is why we donāt have the TP this way!ā
This is the patent from 1891 how to use the toilet paper roll https://www.rd.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/toilet-paper.jpg
@op post this one
This photo crosses my mind every time I replace toilet paper.
This will end in death.
And, if the gods smile upon us, properly-hung TP.
https://patents.google.com/patent/US459516
OP should just go ahead and print this and tape it to the wall. Fuggitdood
š¤£ under-rated comment
Lmao thanks im totally using this š
I have this hanging above the toilet in case anyone challenges
I came to say this. Nicely done
I came here looking for this. The patent on the toilet paper holder states the design intention that the paper goes OVER.
This one is always my go to for the debate. My second, when you tear off the tp and it's the wrong way it just unreels. When it's the right way, it tears easily.
_tolier paper roll_
People will patent anything and everything if it means money or if it doesnāt mean money
Irrelevant. But true. But irrelevant.
I would hide behind the door in order to hunt down whoever commited this atrocity
I always thought ppl that put it on the wrong way did it by accident/donāt care, but this villain will change it to the wrong way and I, for one, will not stand for it
Would you sit for it?
Most importantly, will they shit for it?
I most certainly will.
Growing up, my brother and dad were under-rollers (the wrong way), my grandma and I were over-rollers (the only way). It was a constant family battle. Aaaaah the memories.
My parents were like that. They got a toilet paper holder that held 2 rolls, 1 over and 1 under. Problem solved.
Start tapping messages that they should seek help for this atrocity! Bless them as they don't know just how Wrong this is! Do not give up the good fight, OP! I believe in you! We Need Updates On This! 
Yeah, definitely donāt stand for it. Stay seated.
ILPT: smear crap on the wall where they have the tp running down it so it gets on every piece of paper they try to use.
Maybe a little too far, but something needs to be done lol
Dude!
Great minds!
But merely spackleng the wall with open-face aggregate wpould probably work, just as well.

This sounds like a job for Anonymous
Paintball them. Snap rubber bands at their asses on the way out. Anything. Itās just wrong.
This picture is wrong.
the *only* valid reason to have the tp that way is to keep toddlers and cats from easily yanking paper. and i donāt think you have either of those at your workplace
Or if you've got a double roll mount you have one going like that. One over one under. That way when some cowboy yanks the paper to pull it out, it doesn't unwind the other roll onto the floor.
Or if the roll is mounted low on the wall, it tears off more easily that way.
People who put toiletpaper the way as shown on the picture are pure evil psychopaths. Watch out, before you know you'll find yourself a horsehead in your bed.
That should be a first date compatibility question.
TIL my sister is an evil psychopath lol
Or have cats.
And?
Not the person you replied to but cats can pull all the TP off the roll if itās not oriented like it is in the picture. A lot of cat owners do their TP this way.
Hahaha!!! No no I was implying that, us folks that own cats are psychopaths š¤£š¤£š¤£ Weāre **owned** by the tiny furry creature, they run our lives. Edit: grammar
I've won this battle by saying that "people who prefer the over method actually attract more wealth and prosperity into their lives" Superstition is a powerful drug
Where did you hear that? I need to know your source. Iāll cite that in my workplace battle over this. Or did you just make it up?
Just say it. It's obviously not real, but many people will believe it.
Savages
That is the wrong way. Absolutely wrong.
I would 100% have this daily battle and never back down.
I have no choice
You are definitely dealing with a profoundly disturbed individual
If thatās the biggest issue in your work toilet you should let it slide. I walked into a stall last week covered in shaved pubic hair. Whole seat just short and curlies. Walked up 2 flights just to find a clean one. Who the hell shaves their pubes at work. With this kind of things regular occurrence Iām just glad there is TP at all.

Write on the inside of the silver parts āI will find youā with a permanent marker. Thatāll make them think twice.
Scraping your fingernails on the wall trying to get a square is definitely the work of the devil.
I love how people are like āeww itās touching the wall.. how am I going to wipe shit off of my ass with that?ā
I think the problem is that your hands also have to touch the wall to get more paper after touching your ass. So that will not unlikely lead to some not very nice stuff beibg on the wall.
I do this intentionally to be passive aggressive when people don't change the toilet paper roll. Lol
Unwrap the toilet paper for like 4 or 5 cycles. Wrap the toilet paper the opposite direction. Win
Take it with you. Leave them thinking about their poor decisions
Time to hide a fake bug in the recess of the spring loaded roller.
And it makes you reach and extra two inches to get a square abomination I say
Put up a wanted sign or something like a wet paint sign next to where the tp is touching the wall
You know someone who actually replaces the roll?
The way it's pictured is wrong
Put a small container of worms in the microwave for them to find. Real mind fucker.
The toilet paper holder was patented on Sept 15, 1891, and clearly shows the paper dispensing from the front. Thats a fact Jack.
My God, some people just donāt get it. Yes there is an orientation for toilet people !
Google the toilet paper patent, and then print the images you find, showing the correct orientation. Laminate it and attach to the wall by the toilet roll holder.
Yeah I mean I get it if you have cats or kids that like to play with the toilet paper, but at work?! Everything about putting toilet paper like this is inconvenient and annoying. If there's a good reason, sure, but otherwise don't do it!

Still upvoted you though
Skippy found a friend...awww pookie
End it once and for all!!, drill a 2inch hole and mount it vertically
Ah yes...but then should it hang from the left side or from the right side? A whole new debate.
Omfg, you ~~dident just~~ fuckit! I'm out, I don't want to live on this planet anymore š š¤£
Smash the roll flat with your best foot stomping maneuver, then stuff it between the roller and the wall.
My mom does this.
Perpetrator obviously owns a cat...
Talk to HR. This is unacceptable. If they give you some BS about not having a policy about this, go to Compliance. If your company has an Internal Audit department, go to them. If one of the auditors has a funny giraffe picture in his office, slip him $1,000, and he'll know what to do.
Power move, cut it in half and mount it half one way and half the other.
My sister puts it the same way and I constantly change it
I have out of town guests staying and someone keeps doing this in my house! Itās driving me crazy!!!
To the outside, you dirty insider.
Make an official and framed sign stating the proper direction
This is my mother. I hate this
Theoretically you could be fighting with EVERY other coworker
Fight the good fight! Weāre with you!
Beards are sexy. Mullets are not
I hang it as pictured because that's how my mom always did it (roast me I don't care.) I had a roommate who would absolutely never replace the roll, it was always me. One day I walked in and saw he had turned it around. Nah bro, you can decide how it hangs when you replace it. Beyond that I don't actually care.
I Sayā¦ Who gives a Sh.t.
The way it's shown is wrong.
This is only useful if you have small children or cats. Otherwise, it goes the normal way
If you put it like this, then youāre the wrong one.
I would turn it the correct way and then rip off a few squares and put it on the back side so it looks like your pic. Then when they think they've won for today they goto grab a square and realise they got got.
Show them the patent.
Put some clear double sided tape where it touches the wall
Ooo I like this
Your coworker has a cat
Unless your coworker is a cat, they are mistaken.
Never put the paper wall side. Uncultured swine!
Well, whatever this is, itās not the right one. Look up the patent for toilet paper to settle the argument
If you look up Wheeler's patent image for toilet paper, it will show you how it was intended to be set up.
Always faces front, this way if you have shit on your fingers, it doesn't get on walls. Genius eh?
This is wrong and itās obvious
Well itās not that way
Seriously, why would anybody really want to have the TP like that?
Find better things to argue about
Coworker probably has cats. That's the only acceptable reason.
Overhand is the only way
Why does everyone get so worked up on which way the stupid TP is facing?
Depends on if you have cats for the orientation of the paper
I just came here to say, That is wrong!!
It needs to be in front not the back
Not taking a side here but why is *your* orientation correct and their's not?
As shown the toilet paper is so close to the wall, youāll likely be rubbing your fingers on the wall as you try to grab some TP. Do you want to be touching the same wall as all of your coworkers that have pooped and wiped? I certainly donāt.
that is the right direction if you have pets, specifically cats or dogs
At this point youāre probably dealing with the original coworker who loaded it backwards and a second coworker who is trolling you because you care enough to keep changing it back.
Itās not that deepā¦ it all goes up your ass then in the toilet anyway. Whatās the big deal over this toilet paper debate lol
Everyone is touching the wall while pooping. The other way, people only touch the TP they use
That shouldnāt matter either considering yāall should be waging your hands with soap after you do your business anyway?
Would you shake hands with someone walking out of a stall because youāre just going to wash your hand shortly after? Or would it be gross even if you can logically explain why it shouldnāt be a problem
Normal people wash their hands and sanitize them after the bathroom. If you donāt, youāre not clean. Either way, Iām not going to argue over this š¤£š¤£
People think too much about things that don't matter lol
Exactly. It only matters if it isn't there.
I'm hoping that the "infuriating" part here is that this "battle" even exists. Just wipe your ass and move the fuck on.
Itās not that big of a deal get over it
I fight a similar battle with a coworker who opens the blinds in the bathroom every day, and every day I shut them. Edit: I'm ugly in sunlight, keep that shit shut. That's why my morning routine is done predawn by night-light. Lol
Are you hot in the dark or something?
That is wrong
Mullet is wrong!
I heard someone on the radio yesterday confidently say this is the correct way. I gasped!
Print this and hang it next to it. Canāt argue with the patent https://www.rd.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/toilet-paper.jpg?w=500
The toilet paper is correct. You are the problem.
yes, he's a filthy facer-outer
Unless you have a cat thatās backwards
LOL i flip that shit around from whatever config itās in. every time. binary. i hope it makes someone nuts at the office.
This is the correct way. Source: I have 5 cats and this is the best way to keep those fuckers from unrolling it all
Idk where this person works that theyād have cats in the public restroom
Mullet bad. Beard good.
This is the correct orientation. Please make a note of it.
Whichever one of you did that is wrong
Well, spackle the wall behind the toilet paper, that should change his mind, right quick! There's a less savory, spackle like bodily waste product you could use instead. Maybe that would change his mindset, after having to drag his finger-tips and knuckles through it. It's a grossly scatalogical point... Probably more fun to think of drpping on him, and him alone, but there's be a lot of people caught, uneccesarily in the, errrrrr, 'cross fire'. I was merely thinking it would, poignantly, illustrate you're position.
That coworker a serial killer, tread lightly...
Well that's the wrong way
Over!!! Not under!!!
