Bathroom business

You can do your business in the bathroom, but don’t bring it in the bathroom.
In a public restroom, I heard a woman alternately speak in English and then Spanish about a person’s FHA loan. Would I ever want to know that either a mortgage loan officer or a real estate agent had taken me into the bathroom?
Not only that, but this woman was essentially sharing private information in a public place, and a dirty public place at that. If the conversation is really that important to you, tell the client you’ll call back. Or hold it.

I have seen this kind of thing more times than I can count, now. I’m standing at the urinal, a man standing beside me, and his phone rings. Does he answer it? Of course! One-handed, no less. I’ve heard people in stalls talking on cell-phones. I’ve heard people having apparently business-related, as well as personal conversations on cells in bathrooms.
Have I ever done it myself? No, I’ve had the phone ring in the bathroom, but I always either ignore it, or silebce the ringer. I just don’t understand the necessity of taking any phone call right then.
