    Negative, on the phone in the bathroom. I have seen more than enough people talk on the phone while standing at the urinal :/

    Pee time is 'me' time.

    Poo time is .. not 'you' time.

    So, no.

    Ironically, this just came up here at work a few weeks ago. There are actually now signs outside the restroom doors saying 'Out of courtesy and respect for your co-workers, please refrain from using phones in the rest room'.

    It takes everything I have to not burst out laughing when one of my co-workers answers the phone while taking a crap.

    I voted yes. I work in operations 24/7. So whenever my cell phone rings, it's bound to be crap anyway.

    But at work I HAVE to answer my radio when called. We call it the echo chamber because everyone knows where you are when you answer.

    I have refrained from voting due to the word "public" in the poll.

    Re: Do you answer your cell phone in the bathroom?

    I gave up a cell phone last year when I stopped travelling so much for my job. When I do travel I'll take a company loaned cellphone but I would never answer it in the toilet...I mean some things are just too sacred...besides...that's my reading time not my talking time.

    Nope. That's what voicemail is for. It can wait a couple of minutes...

    Yes, I have been known to answer; now with all the games I downloaded, I just sit back relax and play away while I grunt.

    Exactly, I think this goes for most public settings.

    That's negative on my part. I've also worked Ops 24/7, but I'm not as dedicated as Blonov.

    Cheers.

    Nothing better than answering your phone in the can and having the following conversation:
    You: Hello?
    Friend: Sup man, what are you up to?
    You: Taking a (wicked deuce/huge leak) at (insert place here).
    Friend: Dude.....seriously....
    You: What?! I'm serious.
    Friend: I didnt need to know that man.
    You: You asked bro.
    Friend: Why couldnt you have just called back after you got out of the bathroom?
    You: Cause the phone vibrating was bothering me, plus you would've been like "why didnt you answer?"
    Friend: True. Good point.
    You: So whats up?
    Friend: Nothing...
    Etc, etc, etc.
