I thought it would have been touch footy or something.

Whatever gets them laced-up is fine with me!

I am moving house (and country), but I own a literal ton of books, so moving is expensive. I used a company where there's a driver and a van, but I help load it. I am much weaker than the driver, so he ended up doing 60% of the work, and I'm probably being kind to myself.

I'll unload on Sunday at the destination. Do I tip?

Driver and I do not share a language by the way, and this is UK to EU.

Where in EU are you moving ? And yes, tip the driver a bit, he'll like it.

Tallinn.

What counts as a bit? I have no idea where the driver is from, which would help me gauge it. €20?

I originally thought Lithuania because he had Lithuanian on his lanyard, but when he wanted to find a word, he tried Spanish. Definitely looked more Lithuanian, so perhaps he thought Spanish had the best shot of working with me (it did). On the other other hand, Lithuanians generally speak English, Spaniards often don't.

Good stuff Tallinn, depending on what his services have costed as a whole and how swanky you are I'd do somewhere between 20 and 50 I guess. Im a euro tipper though so I just tip whatever I feel like without too much thought, hence the swankyness.

I would tip dependent on how much you pay for the whole move, something around 5 %.
Tallin is really nice.

I think 20 is probably a bit on the low end, but fine.

Damn, that's a good answer.

I've always wanted to go to Estonia. I'd tip but I'd be like you, unsure of the amount.

Sci,

How much are you paying for the move?

I once requested money while using self checkout in a supermarket & left without collecting it. IIRC it was quite a lot of dollars. Went back about fifteen minutes later & asked the guy supervising self checkout if he knew anything about the money & he said no with imo very suspicious body language. Since it was quite a lot maybe I should have spoken with customer service & seen if they had CCTV? Or at least asked the supervisor guy who I should speak to to check the CCTV in order to see if he then "remembered" picking up the cash.

Tallinn is great. Please post photos of various kiluvõileib for us to vicariously live thru you.

Yes, you should have asked for the CCTV footage. Part of my job is fixing those evil things and every self scan I have oever worked on has CCTV. Mainly for shoplifters, but very well could have helped you out as well.

Need a bathroom etiquette line-check

Always considered myself an expert of bathroom etiquette, but having started at a new office, I've seen some bizarre results that have me questioning my thought process and need some outside opinions

When you walk into the bathrooms at my new office, there is one side of "fixtures" and one side of sinks. As you walk in, there are three urinals, followed by three regular stalls, and finally one handicapped stall. I have attached an amateur diagram below for clairty



When I walk into an empty bathroom and need to use a stall, I have been opting for stall 3 (s3). My thought process is that since the first urinal in the bathroom is a child's urinal(CU), the last urinal (u2) is the most popular urinal. I don't want to pick (S1), because it is most likely to be boardered by a walk-in urinal user.

I am old fasionahed and although the handicapped stall (HS) seems the most optimal, I like to leave it reserved for any potential handicapped person who might walk in (though I am not aware of any in the office). I like to think by selecting the 3rd stall, any walk-in stall user will pick S1

However, I have noticed that while using the third stall, an alarming amount of walk-ins pick the handicapped stall. I don't have any hang ups about using a public restroom, but in a world with four stalls, it kinda bothers me that people are picking a bordering stall when they could just go with the 1st stall.

Is my only option to start using stall 1 and accepting the fact that I'll likely share a wall with a urinal user for a short period in exchange for not having to share a wall with a stall user for my duration? Should I concede that there is no such thing as morality in a shared bathroom and just start using the handicapped stall when I'm the first in? Is my stall selection in an empty bathroom sub-optimal? Which would you choose in anticipation that there could be a walk-in stall user?

I would naturally go for the handicap stall, and as I walked past S3 and noticed, to my great surprise, that it was occupied, I'd become flustered and too embarrassed to change course. I'd have no choice but to continue on into HS but be chagrined that there was someone next door, and I'd probably spend the whole time wondering wtf the person in S3 hadn't gone into HS, thus ruining any enjoyment I'd get out of my luxuriously spacious HS surroundings.

Don't be a dick, use the HS.

As someone who wasn't able to use anything but a handicapped stall for several months, **** people who automatically go to those. Seriously, **** you. It's the worst. Almost every single time I had to use a public restroom someone was in one.

HS all day if you want to cut everyone else out of the equation. NEXT!

Show off!

I think on Mythbusters, or a similar show, they showed that the first stall is almost always the cleanest. Something to consider.

In shared bathrooms I try to go for the toilet that is likely to be cleanest / least used / unmicturated upon. That is usually the stall nearest the door, as people tend to go for the HS or farthest stall. S1 or S2 would be optimal in my book. I throw all other considerations like personal space and other urinalia-type etiquette out the window when using a stall.

Though my natural inclination would be S3 always, after too many run-ins with HS wall-sharers, I would likely change my default move to S2.

I am curious what the a/b testing results for the current configuration of bathroom vs one where the childs urinal is moved to the location of urinal 3. Does the far urinal go from 80% default choice in an empty bathroom to 30%?

Bunch of urologists itt.

I would use the closest stall to me that was clean. Why do you care if someone is on the otherside of one of your stall walls? You're separated by a wall, it's not like they're watching you take a **** or something.
