Mobile: Gotta go PEE!

Tex Star Detail

Formerly TexasTB
Serious question...........

For us Mobile Detailers, it is a PITA, or groin......:)
So I have been running into this problem a bit. Working on a car, and you gotta pee like a race horse..... What to do.....hold it and pray? LOL

Sometime, if I get to know the customer, or the customers seems cool, I will ask politly...I hate too ask though.
What if they are not home? If they live in the counrty, pee outside....If in a neighbor hood, what do you do????

Lately, I bought some 'portable pee bags" lol, as I like to call them. I wanna say I picked them up at Wally World???? When it is freezing out, I find myself having to go every 30 minutes....lol

I have 3rd row seating in my SUV and VERY dark tinted rear windows.....I have been using it as my private stall......LOL.....sick? You gotta do what you gotta do.......:cool:

What do you other mobile detailers do????
 
hehehehhe just be glad you're not a girl mobile detailier!! :eek: What about a empty gallon jug??? If anybody asks you could just say it's gatorade! lol :p Just tell them not to drink it though. The Sunny Delight gallon bottles have a large openings. :p

if you are confortable with it you could always use depends or somthing like it.
I know astronaughts use them, as well as many deep sea divers who wear dry suites.. since well you get the point.
As weird as it sounds it might be a viable option..

Also i know for old people (i have a freind who works in a retiernment home) they can get bags that attach to your inner thigh and have a tube so if you go its all collected in the bag.. again maybe an option
 
I'd just keep on using the bags you have or get a bottle. Depends are a big no no unless you can't control yourself.
 
I have no shame, if i'm out on a job and its at a business or someones place. I'll just go and ask, i mean come on its human nature, i think they'll understand.

And if your detailing somewhere and theres no inside access, just pee on the side of the house lol. Again no shame, i'm not worried about the lady accross the street, i think she'll understand too.

No shame here either. I will open my back and front door, stand in between, and go......just do not hit the door panel.:cool: I ask too. I just wanted to know what else is there.

Nope not at all!! I always detail at my house so I just go inside if I've got to. ;) But I'm just saying physically speaking he should be grateful he's not a girl having to pee outside. lol Boy's are lucky! They can just point and shoot they don't have to master squatting in a way that you won't fall over and won't get your pants wet! I hate camping for this very reason! That and it always rains. :) As for the Sunny D, well, I have kids, I just know these things! lol

I was referring to the Sunny D thing more than anything... and so that explains it ;) :)
 
This is a interesting thread, but if I was at someone house I would just ask to use the restroom...whats the big deal..really..I'm sure that the owner would not mind.

I had gardeners that use to spend the day at my last house and they asked me, and I had no problem with it.

That's my take
 
I was asking....what if noone is home? what if you were doing someone car at a park....or at the very back of a big parking lot......stuff like that.

if you are at their house....ask em.....go for it....
but I am asking about situations where no bathroom is available
 
I too have struggled with always not wanting to ask, BUT HAVING TO ASK EVENTUALLY! Customers don't seem to mind but when I get my enclosed trailer I will definitly be keeping an empty sunny d bottle around. Thanks Chris for asking this question!
