You too may experience this "luxury" by going to pretty much any club (dance or strip) on pretty much any weekend in pretty much any major US city. The opulence wears off quickly, as it is made clear that you're expected to tip and all you want to do is wash your hands like a decent person.

Theu don’t just hand you towels, they usually have OTC type things if you’re feeling ill - you’ll never be more thankful for them until it happens to you when clubbing

If the attendant is to my left, I rotate clockwise towards the door after I finish washing. Then it looks like I didn’t see him.

With wet hands, though, or damp pants, which is not a great look in either club environ.

I would just simply refuse to go to such places, but I've only ever gone at the strong insistence of friends and perhaps the insistence some strong drink.

Perhaps a real-life hack could be to bring sanitizer gel.

I'm 53 and the only time I've ever seen a washroom attendant was in Mexico.

It is a common thing in US if you go clubbing.
