Yeah, we had a problem like that in my food service journey in the 90's.
Monday:
Place is busy
Front end girl runs up to the manager, girls room wall is smeared.
Manager goes in to clean it
Wednesday:
place gets busy
Manger herself walks into the restroom and it's worse, comes back out to clean it. I offer to take care of it, i don't love the idea, but I'm not grossed out very easily. (honestly, it was better than cleaning the grease traps, those things are miserable)
Thursday:
place gets busy.
Manager checks on the restroom, it's clean
front end girl was taking her break on that side of the dining room.
One customer uses the restroom
Another front end girl goes in and the wall is smeared. Screams for the manager.
The customer looks all nervous and gets up to leave. The manager rips her a new asshole. Kicks her out in front of everyone in the dining room.
It was the 60yo who smelled strongly of cat urine. who'da thunk it.
I cleaned it again, got my pick of the shifts the rest of my days there. We never had another incident like that.
Of course, the men's room is just always covered in urine. Old men and young kids miss, even people with aim splash back out of the toilet enough to get it on the walls/floor/under the urinals.
I'm impressed the manager dealt with it rather than making one of you. That's leadership.
Especially in min-wage fast food, she was nice.
I don't know what happened to them, but it used to be where I live that the bathroom would have floor-to-belly-height urinals and the entire bathroom floor would be gently sloped towards them, and the walls would be tiled to the same height.
This meant that cleanup could be done by blasting everything with industrial detergent/disinfectant and literally power washing it all into the urinal drains. Now in New construction I only see the wall mounted urinals, and a floor drain in the middle to meet code requirements, but often the cleaners don't know that they have to put water into that drain to prevent it evaporating out and letting sewer gasses flow into the room (ew.)
Overall a downgrade for both staff and visitors.
Enpissification.
Builder charges X for a bathroom, builds it out of cheaper fixtures, gets signoff from the client by using "premium" trims that cost them pennies more.
The f'd up part is that for most things being enshittified, we'd GLADLY pay $1 more for the nicer product for them to include $0.10 of screws they're saving by putthing crap together with plastic.
its deeper than that, Cost of operation. Who pays the cleaning staff to disinfect those tiles so bacterial growth doesn't occur? Plastics and many cheaper materials are bio-inhibitors. They can be covered in fecal and urine waste and not be literal petri dishes for bacteria, fungus's and mold.
they also look plain (IE: "Industrial", currently a desirable artistic trait. When we live in a society that is all doomer and see's everything for its resale "potential") and last a relatively long times(plastic erosion is significantly slower than cheap tile). In a era where operating a business is less about making or selling products you believe in, but making sure your investors (bank/shareholders) get paid. its one major cost(staff) off the top.
More so when most businesses rent the buildings they use, they do not own them. You want to blame anyone, blame the landlords that charge based on location, not based on business profits + their own costs.
