I want to know what you guys think about this. The question is should camera phones be allowed in public restrooms or locker rooms?
-
Camera Phones?
-
Depends on the purpose. People at my high school carry there phones everywhere. and if you werent supposed to carry mobiles in, then where are the mobile going to be and who would enforce the rule. You can't just make someone stand at the door and do a pocket search everytime someone comes in to the toilet, can you?
-
I guess that the sensible thing would be to holster your phone when you enter the restroom. After all, you're not in there that long and if you're in the middle of taking a piss, are you going to worry about the phone ringing?
-
I have taken some really nice pictures with my phone.Use in public area? Sure! There was this guy where I used to work who would walk around in the bathroom naked and take a piss, shave and change into his work clothes every morning. He was a really cute fuzzy little bear cub and not bad to look at. Nobody would believe me that he did this, so I snapped a few shots awesome shots of his nakedness for friends to see.No harm done…. He even liked them too after telling him I took them.
-
Sheesh Roc, I'm surprised... actually appalled.So what if you sent this pic to someone and it started getting passed around, snickering behind the back, jokes, etc... and he wasn't OK with it?I would have made sure you got fired. In a public place is bad enough, but at the workplace??? That's bad.
-
I'm sure you would have had me fired! I told several managers that he was doing this every morning and thought it was a bit weird that he didn’t do it at home…. I did it because nobody believed me that this guy washed up and shaved every morning in the bathroom on the production floor.I didn’t do it to sneak a naked picture of him. You make it sound like I’m some twisted sexual deviant. I showed the managers and they had it stopped spoke to him and gave him a key to the manager’s gym and showers. If you read it…I even told the guy I took them.So don’t be so appalled and judgmental….Christ! Touchy subject for you???
-
I did read it, and you really didn't explain the situation or the circumstances. All you said was... really cute fuzzy little bear cub ...not bad to look at....awesome shots of his nakedness for friends to see....He even liked them too ...Didn't quite sound like it was legit. It did sound perverted. Sorry man, that's the way it read.
-
Because I feel the production floor restroom, at work, wasn't or isn't the place to take a sponge bath with a wash cloth, piss and shave all the while walking around naked. This type of morning ritual should have been done at home. Not in the men’s bathroom at work.So, I notified the managers about his behavior and showed them pictures.Is this answer good enough or do you guys still have a problem with it????
-
LOL.. Don't get upset..I understood your explanation. You really should have added that info in the first place. Your original post just made you look weird.
-
I guess that is my mistake.... Your right... Sorry!
He was a really cute fuzzy little bear cub ...AND he wasn't not bad to look at....awesome shots of his nakedness for friends to see, which I showed to a few of them after told him I took them.... He was cool with it He even said that liked them too and wanted me to email it to him....
. .it's true. I was trying to light heartily say using a phone camera in public situations wasn't as bad as people all think it is and it helped in this situation....
If you people are so worried about it ...Then I suggest you have the establishment you use, ban them from being used on the premise.
Like at my health club. Cell phones are not allowed inside the building! If they catch you with one, they suspend your membership.
-
I still don't feel that was well done, Roc. If you didn't like the guy's doing that you should have spoken to him, not informed on him to the manager. And it wasn't really hurting you.
I think people in a restroom should have an expectation of reasonable privacy.
-
Roc,Have you considered that the dude was sleeping over at his girlfriend's house and did not want to disturb her while he took a piss, showered and got ready for work at her house. It may have been easier to come to work and get dressed than to drive all the way back to his house and then to work.
-
I am going to doubt that's the reason only because if the guy spent the night at a girlfriends house I would think she would expect him to shower and such in the morning to get ready for work.Though I see both sides of what people are saying, I personally would feel a little uncomfortable walking into the restroom to urinate and seeing some guy walking around naked cleaning up for work. Though yes there might have been a better way to go about stopping the action, but Roc decided this action and apparently it worked without any negative reaction, this time.
-
Theres alot of paranoia about this right now.Seems to me,that common sense should prevail.If you see someone using a mobile in the changing rooms just polietly ask them to put it away for privacy reasons.And if they refuse.Say that you will inform management.Simple!
-
I havn`t got a problem with people taking camera phones into changing rooms and i don`t have a problem with people talking n their phones while in the changing rooms, but it would be a problem if i caught somebody taking a photo.
-
I HAVE GONE IN TO USE THE REST ROOM AND THERE HAVE BEEN PEOPLE CHANGING INTO THEIR SWIM WEAR. I FIGURE WHO CARES? IT'S AM ALL MALE ROOM WE ALL HAVE THE SAME EQUIPMENT. AS FOR THE PICTURE TAKING. I WOULD HAVE BEEN PISSED OFF.
-
ARE YOU PISSED OFF RIGHT NOW? CAP'S MEAN YOU'RE YELLING!!!...*ahem*...My throat hurts.
-
pffffft ! what the hell do I care ? if they want apic of my wang, Il pose for it.
-
Im always up for getting paid. but if you share online and not sell, then its royalty free and there is no money involved, what do I care what they do with the pic once I pose for it ?
-
Id sign and wink at them before turning to walk away.
