So what does everyone do about the noisy bathroom visits??  I work full time and the bathrooms are of course, conveniently located near desks so everyone can hear everything that happens in the bathrooms.  I try to hold it in, but then I usually have accidents and that can even more embarassing. Even on business trips, I dont know how to handle rooming with someone.  I have a trip coming up and have high anxiety about it. I am not close to this person I am rooming with so I certainly do not feel comfortable explaining the situation.  And even if I was close to that person, explaining it is one thing, but hearing it is another.  It's very loud!  Plus I go alot - normally 10-15 times a day.  Is this normal?  How does everyone else handle it?
