It's Time For Another Be-Loo-Tiful Discussion! How Often Do YOU Clean the Bathroom?

[Tall_Timbers]

There were some years when I was single and was traveling 200-250 or more days each year to the far reaches of the planet as an Air Force Aviator that I rented rooms from home owners so I could live on the cheap and build up my wealth to invest it. I got the boot from one good deal living situation when the friend I was living with decided to get married. I still remember when he broke the news. His bride to be was present when they announced to me that they were getting married. I knew them both and was very happy for them, but that meant I was going to have to find another place to live... of course, my reply was: Shall we draw straws to see who gets to live here?

After getting kicked out of that house I moved into the basement of my female bank teller friend. She wanted to buy a house but needed to rent out a room to be able to afford the mortgage. We made a deal, she bought the house and I moved in. She never asked me to help clean but I'm the kind of person who wants to do my share so when I'd clean the bathroom (there was only one, this was an old small home) I'd notice that she'd clean it again anyway. I asked her about that and she said that she cleans once a week whether or not a cleaning is needed because otherwise she might get lazy about it. I learned from that and now I clean our restrooms once a week whether or not it's needed. My wife doesn't do house chores so they all fall on me. If you clean once a week, in most cases you won't have things discoloring. If you have lots of iron in your water you might need to use iron out every once in a while, but other than that, a once a week cleaning should stay ahead of any deposits that might want to take over your restroom.

So while I can't relate to the horror situations in all of the possible selections except for "other" in the poll in my own residences, I've surely seen and experienced the unworldly horror in some public restrooms and in homes I've visited.

I flush the toilet after use of course I have yet to help out on cleaning at home. Thanks for reminding me.

My current job is such that I attend nature's call wherever I go. Toilet. Out in the open. Such is the nature of my job. Excuse me for my honesty.

I'm in a rush all the time. So when it's go time, I go wherever I can. Try to use the toilet most of the times though. When I can't, then it's in the open.
