Hand Washing Or Not, As It Seems
36 Answers
On a regular basis at work and in public loos, I notice so many people who just walk out after using toilet without washing their hands. Even after the importance of hand-washing is highlighted more than ever now, I noticed someone doing this yesterday at work.
I know I have OCD about hand washing anyway but am I being paranoid and worrying unnessessarily? Maybe I also need to stop watching what other people are doing! Lol

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.I'm practically paranoid about hand-washing. The moment I get in from wherever I've been I wash my hands - and in public loos after I've washed my hands I never touch the exit door with bare hands. I always use a couple of tissues to open the door and then bin them. I hate it when people don't wash their hands. Horrible. Adults shouldn't have to be told to wash their hands.
I also keep tissues for opening public toilet doors, I've never understood why supermarkets and large department stores don't have tissues available beside toilet handles and a receptacle bin on the other side of the door. I also carry antibacterial wipes when I go to the supermarkets to wipe the trolley handles which are nearly always sticky, what's caused the stickiness I dread to think.
I remember reading years ago that biologists tested a bowl of peanuts from the bar in a pub and found eleven different types of urine in them. Be it riding public transport, travelling up escalators, pushing a trolley round the supermarket, handling money, sitting in a restaurant or opening the door of a shop or a public toilet, that - and more - is what you're touching in public places - and those who don't wash their hands are responsible for it. Disgusting.
