The men's room in my building (IT and Facilities Management on the corporate campus of a $3B manufacturing company) frequently has all 3 stalls full of unflushed feces. We've had emails circulate ("Attention men! Please flush the toilets after use!") which don't seem to resolve the situation. Piles of soiled paper towels are frequently found on the floor near the door which resulted in a sign ("Please put waste in the trash!").

I have no idea why this is so, but I've been told various racist theories: the predominately latino cleaning crew, or maybe the Indian contractors, are responsible.
