Restroom Auto-Flush

I was in the restroom today using the toilet. About twenty seconds passed when the auto-flush went on.

It sure was annoying and uncomfortable.
If people would only flush the toilet after they are done, we wouldn't have such system on campus. Lazy students.

What building??

You mean the sensor automatically flushes after 20 seconds even if you are doing your thing? Doesn't sound normal to me...

well at least you get a nice cool breeze

It happened to me three times in a row.
Can be annoying at a certain time.

Hahaha Must be you.
Try using the campus toilet and you'll know what we mean.

students in the dorms must be even more lazy. they have automatic paper towel dispensers. hmm...so far we have automatic flushing toliets, water faucets, and paper towel dispensers. all we need are automatc doors and we'll have the complete lazy man's bathroom.

I think the problem occurs when we are finished using the toilet and cleaning up ourselves.

Everytime we throw some toilet paper into the toilet, the sensor picks up our hand motion and it flushes. I just put up the seat and have it block the sensor, then push the manual button when done.

well...the automatic restroom functions aren't designed 'cause people are "lazy"...it's just a matter of hygiene...I know I don't like to touch the flush handles in public restrooms...I usually use my foot to activate the flush...lol

That is true I feel silly having to press manual flush when using automatic toilets.
