Recently, my school locked the women’s bathroom closest to my classes due to skipping. My school groups all your classes in one proximity, so you can travel between them quickly and efficently. Most of us are frustrated, because the only other washroom is one across the school. Meaning a 2-4 minute bathroom break is now turned into a 10-12 minute one due to the walk there and back. I decided to just suck it up and wait until they opened it again, as I am a rather quick walker and ahead in all my classes (besides maths and bio LOL) a few days ago, right after the lock, I asked my English teacher to use the washroom. I managed to make the trip there and back in about 7 minutes. After class, my English teacher pulled me aside and explained to me that I “clearly wasn’t actually using the washroom” because I took too little time, she explained that I need to take longer to even make it there, and while that’s usually true, I’m a fast walker as mentioned. Especially when I need to use the washroom. I nodded and apologized, every time I used the washroom, it happened. Until the point that they took me to the principals to have a meeting about my repeated “insubordination and avoidance of classes” I was fed up, and now I’m writing this on minute 20 of my bathroom break. She wanted me to take longer, so I’ll take longer.
