Hate to say it, but I caught a guy one day after he completely ruined the toilet seat and it was an Indian H1B contractor. No I didn't go chase him down at that point.
Please don't ban my account, that's true and anecdotal - 75%+ of my coworkers in that department were Indian so maybe it was just the odds.

No, you can't comment like that here, and yes we've banned your account.
No reasonable idea of civility (https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html) would include "anecdotes" about the grossness of other races' or nations' bathroom habits. I'm flummoxed that this became necessary to state explicitly, but I guess everything happens if you moderate an internet forum long enough.

The user was correct in my case, stereotype or not.
I don't get this; this happened at my workplace too, until we installed a coded lock on the restroom (which was otherwise accessible to anyone in the building). What kind of boor has a professional job but can't piss in a foot-diameter hole and is too lazy to clean up when he does so?
