It should be on the requirement when a job is advertised
Must be able to do the business in a tight space no near misses allowed, experience required
I’ve done it. Was driving from Pompey to Nottingham - (can’t remember which way around). Was on some a road - and pulled in desperately at a local services. Went into the petrol station (not working they said) went over to the American Diner place (with polish girls in silly outfits) and was refused use of the toilets as I wasn’t a customer. So got in cab - pulled curtains around. Did it in the cardboard box the first extinguisher was in. Wiped bum with some random paperwork I found. Flung the lot of the window and drove away feeling loads better.

It would take .more than 2 Polish girls to stop me using their khazi, customer or not, if a turtle’s head made an appearance…full wimp mode there Sammy me old mate.
And use a bin man ffs.

Full disclosure. I wasn’t well. And it was a choice between cardboard box and ■■■■■■■■ myself.
It’s a total shame that men are reduced to this. But I didn’t want to degrade myself by walking out with a stinking cardboard box and over to the bins. So I did a dirty protest.
I can’t see any situation where I’d turn a man/women away from using my bog. If a delivery driver knocked on my door and asked I couldn’t say no. Perhaps because I know what it’s like to be in that sort of situation. But I was desperate and resorted to desperate actions.
I’m not a huge fan of confrontation if I’m honest. But I do go out of my way in real life to help people. I’ll move over on the motorway to make joining easier for trucks and cars. I’ll pull over to make it easier for a motorbike to filter. I’ll flash people in. I’ll even knock my speed limiter off to help someone get past. I’ll watch drivers back if they are struggling. I’ve even been known to accept run swaps to help out blokes who need to finish late or who want to run max hours. But I’m not going to crap myself just so I can earn 150 quid for a shift. I draw the line at that.

if you had any experience of owning a shop or whatever,then theres absolutely no way you would let non customers use your bog.
i owned a petrol station and car complex and the only ones that got using it was the ones i assumed were in the proccess of buying a car from me…
as usual the best examples are scottish…

That is a ■■■■■■ steal but my concern would be getting it across the yard past the compliance crows…
Be a ■■■■ storm if caught
Could pop a pot plant in it I suppose?

No need for them fancy camping bogs, a pedal bin liner fits snugly over your standard washing up bowl, put it on the passenger seat and hold onto the armrests ,job done 
Now the problems start if your one of those who cant do a number 2 without a number 1 as your then going to have to do a one handed hover over the passenger seat whilst holding the empty Evian bottle with the other, 99% of the time it works fine but it has gone spectacularly wrong on a couple of occasions 
I was parked up just about to empty the tizer out of the window when a wee short a$$ walked up and asked for directions. Could have been embarrassing for someone.
Never dropped one in the cab or in a bag but I’m not averse to a nice fresh air unloading if it has to go. Better than some toilets I’ve been in.
Why carrier bags? Bit sort of undegradeable wunt ye say? Theres those green xl doggie bags available at pet shops for those off beaten track peristaltic overload situations.Careful utilisation of screw top mason jars,with cat litter and a supply of fueling gloves is surely the way to go.So I’m led to believe.
Being an ex, farm worker, going for a dump in the open air isn’t a problem, regularly use to sit on the back of the plough, do the business, then plough it in, Or just nip in the wood, and find a tree, then quick wipe with the standard issue baby wipes… When you gotta go ya gotta go…
But remember when doing it country style, ensure you hold ya trousers overalls away from the drop zone, or when you pull em up, there’s a nasty surprise for ya.

And if you ever decide to hang your bum out of the cab door when it’s raining… Make sure you clear the steps. And if you don’t - when you pressure wash it be careful if the door is open.
I shall say no more.
i have to confess to being that man…
imagine the following scenario…middle of the night,guts collapse due to ibs so theres literally seconds to blastoff,crash stop from 65mph to zero in sparrows ■■■■ time into a layby on the killer A 75.
i vaults into the passenger seat simultaneously dropping me trollies,grabbing the wetwipes out of the fridge,( it was summertime),kicking open the passenger door of the actros,swiveling round,bending over ,leaning backwards and grabbing both grab handles before slipping and losing my grip summersalting head over heels backwards whilst issuing a fair bucket of projectile diarrhoea in a perfect 360 degree ark all over and around me.
if anyone can beat that,then i respectfully take my hat off to them. 
i must admit to ■■■■■■■■ into a bag, sometimes upto 3 times a day, i can sit and have a ■■■■, i can stand and have a ■■■■, i could be stood next too you and be having a ■■■■ into a bag, i also ■■■■ out of my belly 
, it may not be a carrier bag but a colostomy bag but hey its better than a bag for life
i must also confess to peeing into a bag and more than 1 bag at a time i even pee into my bag out of my belly into my urostomy

The joy of "Tramping" - THE UK PROFESSIONAL DRIVERS FORUM (INTERACTIVE) - Trucknet UK(Can’t be arsed to copy stuff out
My reply to ‘thunder 267’ (post no.25) got me to thinking.
Not having a pop at him personally btw, as he has said it is just down to the way his digestion system works, and tbf he does not say he does it regularly or routinely…so that’s cleared up I hope.
What are other tramper’s thoughts on this and how many are brave enough to admit to accepting this as a normality, and doing it regularly in the course of their job.
I refer to the old ■■■■■■■■ in a (supermarket of your choiceIt just panders to the classic dayman’s idea of how a tramper lives ■■■■■■■■, along with the not washing or showering, and living off crap as food, which in my case (and many others) bears no resemblance to how I live as a tramper.
In other words in 2019 are people actually living like this?If so which other group of workers in any other industry would put up with it.
Picked this title as I thought it sounded better than…‘Rob’s ■■■■■■■■ thread’’
let me just add it does not happen with me often but as i say when it does i have newspaper and toilet roll to hand plus baby wipes.but i alwasy try get near a place where i can nip in to use the loo if possible.mcds seem to be ok with u just walking in and using their loos.even asked at 4am and they said no problem as i was parked across road.seems the lidl have loos to so pop in there as well if need be.if im in pub or some other eatery ill pop in before i leave.as for gettign rid of it i find a bin and put it in there well wrapped up if not its on cat walk till i get to a place where i can get rid of it plus any other rubbish i have.just say i have a bag of rubbish where u bin to put it in plz.
It’s a done deal you have to go when you have to go in the job you are in it is expected that you do, do it
Nothing to be ashamed of

Sure nowt to be ashamed of or bothered about in one of those ‘gotta go now’ emergency situations, just like I said in o/p.
But my point was do some of you actually see it as routine, normal or even acceptable as ‘part of the job’ in tramping in this day and age? 
If you do, you should be having a word with yourself imo, and realise how you’ve been led to this indignity by the apathy and refusal by the powers that be, to provide us with plenty of adequate facilities in this age of HEALTH 
and safety,… and are you really happy with just accepting it?
…that was my point in the o/p.

I would say you are expecting a lot even in this day and age have you forgotten what you have read here
You have soles here working for next to nothing why would they not put up with being treated like scrap
They have no other outlet what takes them is what they have and would never get any better because they no know better
