What's really weird about that glass enclosed toilet is that it's two-way mirrors.  The person inside can see everyone outside. 4951

Growing up our downtown had public restrooms. We had to pay 10 cents to get the door open.
you could crawl under but nobody ever did that we saw.
 
Our department stores had them too.
the ladies room had a outer room you could sit and take a rest from shopping and smoke a cigarette. The big places had restaurants on the mezzanine. A floor between departments.
 
I miss going to town, parking and strolling along in and out the stores. Each having their signature bag. Blocks and blocks of unique storefronts, restaurants, bars and a greyhound on one end, trailways on the other. Taxis and city buses along the curb. 4951

I also remember the pay toilets. Once a year before Christmas, my parents would bring us to downtown Chicago on the commuter train. It was a yearly adventure we kids would look forward to. The lights, decorations, huge trees in the storefronts of Macy's, Marshall Field's, Penny's.. All of those stores had the "Rest Room" you speak of, @Beadweaver, I know cause my mom would take me in there. All the ladies chatting and smoking on nice chairs and couches. There were well dressed knowledgeable salespeople that actually helped you. The stores had an air of dignity about them back then. Hell, PEOPLE had an air of dignity about them back then. They were polite, and well mannered. I'd pay a dime for every **** I have to take from now til' my death if we could have just a little of that back...
 
@TheWizard:
 
Yes and the fitting rooms were real fitting rooms with tailors and seamstresses for the perfect fit.
Back then we dressed to go shopping as if we were going to church. It was a special day.
Yes salespeople knew their stuff and were happy to help you. Stores gave extras with a purchase.
Filling stations pumped gas, washed windows and checked oil. When you paid you got a glass or a towel.
You got a towel in the laundry detergent.
Jelly was sold in theme glasses to be reused.
The postman and cop would walk his beat and even sit for a spot of tea depending on the season hot or cold.
We walked a mile to school and would always stop at the corner store. A porch big enough for all of us to sit and drink a cola or share a twin pop.
Not everything new is good for us. I try to hold on to some old ideals.
We don't have cable, we play board games, I make my sweet tea, biscuits and gravy. I bake all the sweets and am usually the first to pull her water gun to say.... summer's here let the water wars begin.
I may be a short 90 days from 56 but in my heart I am still a kid.
I kick the can every day in some form of play.

@beadweaver: I was a country boy back then, so there weren't any beat cops to chat with, and fortunately, the school was 14 miles away, so they HAD to send a bus.. but it still stopped about a quarter mile up the street. Not bad unless it was storming or the snow was 3ft deep... But we DID have a Milkman, and I remember the basket with 4 quart bottles in it left on the front porch.. and the empties returned... and the cream on top ladled over the fresh blackberries we just picked.. No hormones in that cow feed.. Early congrats on your 56!! You still look great! I hit mine last Dec. I have 1 year to go before I oulive my dad... 2 packs of camels a day and too much bacon grease took him early. I don't want to bring EVERYTHING back from those times ;-)
 
@TheWizard:
 
True not everything back.
However I would like to see some class, manners, respect and dignity brought back.
 
Everyone thinks they are so important and should go first.

Yup. We're seemingly surrounded by an entitlement-based generation who's lives revolve around instant gratification. It appears as though you and I share an unpopular view in these times..
 
@TheWizard:
 
But you see....
I see then as the un- entitled.
I am entitled to every damn thing I earned. Not and then some.
Let the people who breed them and embed this notion into them take care of them.
 
I'm often asked why I don't work. Lol
I work for myself. I'm a starving artists because everyone wants cheap chinese goods. They killed main street.
Why do I not work outside......
Because some un entitled selfish pos decided to drive knowing he has epilepsy. I was in front and he hit me so hard as to twist the frame of my cargo van.
Did I collect my disability? Nooooo
Did I go on welfare the six months I was flat on my back? Noooooo
Did I even take the food stamps they urged me to get?
Nooooo
Did I take partial social security? Noooooo
I took a sheet of paper and split it. On the left every job I ever did. Ever including shoveling snow at 5. On the right what I love.
I took what savings I had after moving across country knowing no one just four months earlier and bought a thousand dollars worth of beading supplies and started peddling earrings door to door, office to office, bar to bar.
I'm a job creator when I need. I don't take anything for free.
Even yesterday, that biker chick did my lawn for me cause she saw me in distress. She wouldn't hear me say no and wanted no money. A bottle of jack it was.
When people start to realize your responsibility for you lies with yourself, then maybe things will change.
Ya poo in it, ya need to scrub the pot.
