and be honest!! i saw on mythbusters that while crmbled toilet paper blocks more bacteria over folded tp...the amount that gets on your hands is still pretty alarming! so remember, not only should employees wash em, but you should too ;)

Of course I wash my hands after I use the bathroom. My friend and I would go to clubs and it would bug her if a woman left the restroom without washing her hands. Sometimes she would yell to the person to wash their hands....

I always wash them really well. I make my daughter do the same thing. I carry a little bottle of purell in my pocket, so if there is not any soap we can still wash them and sanitize.

eeee. i think it's so gross when people don't wash their hands...usually i see older women...or pilipino women that don't wash their hands. THe whole process of using a public restroom is dirty from entering the restroom to locking the bathroom door to riping off the toilet paper! I hate when people don't wash their hands especially when you are at a public place...I see this happen at the Casino a lot..can you imagine how dirty the machines are!??? it's so sickenning!

yes, I always have. I find it really disgusting that so many people don't. There is no excuse not to. Even when there has been no where for me to was h my hands, I have at least taken some sort of bottled handwash with me and then I've washed my hands properly at the first possible opportunity.
