smelly bathroom breaks and work.

I've heard of a product called "Nature Calls" and you just put a few drops in the toile****er before you go.  Might work!

If there is only one bathroom in a small salon, I can see where it would be a problem. I am lucky in that we have 6 bathrooms in the area where I work, so I go to the farthest away one that pretty much no one else uses and is not in an area where people walk through. I also keep a purse size Ozium spray with me that I can use if it is more than just a pee stop. That stuff works great and is available in the automotive dept. You might also want to try taking probiotics if you aren't already. Many say they help a lot with the gas and smell. -Wanda

How insane is that!  Wow!  Sorry it happened to you.  Honestly, I don't see much you can do about it, but that is just wrong on their part. 

what about a match?

I know people who take Devron and they say it helps.  Avoiding simple carbs and gassy veggies may help a little.  In most states they can fire you for what ever they want, but if you have been there for more than three months they may have to pay you unemployment.  I am so sorry.  Loris

Yeah, I've learned that here in IL (OP is from here I believe) they can fire you for anything as long as it doesn't fall under legally protected status (age, race, gender, etc).  I hope Devrom, probiotics, or flagyl work!

Have you tried a "courtesy flush"? Flush right after the first bm and then the last. I know it's not very good to waste water, but neither is unemployment!

I agree that's just wrong.  Being 20+ yrs in the corporate world, I can tell you there are products out there to discretely deal with this.  Sometimes I have seen them in catalogs like Harriet Carter.  You can find one brand at www.thedrops.com, another at www.mybathroomninja.com.  You drop a few drops into the toilet bowl before going and it really does mask any odor which may escape the bowl.  Good luck!

Try justadrop at http://www.justadrop.net/ It's a small purse-sized bottle of pine-type scented oil. One drop in toilet bowl BEFORE will take care of odors. I have heard it's also available at Walmart--not sure what section that would be.
