JoeGoaUk's photo above is bery telling.
Do you know that many offices in Goa - where Goans spend 8 to 10 hours every
day - do not have toilets ? None in the whole building !
r keeps blaming the ghantis -
joeGoaUk shows us what office goers have to do to relieve themselves
I, a senior citizen, have - on occasion - needed to relieve myself, and
asked the office staff for directions to a toilet, only to be told that
there is none in the whole building all of three stories !
The most recent incident was the Sub-Registrar's Office in Mapusa where i
had to spend a couple of hours. The clerk mentioned that there existed a
toilet - but it was kept locked because there was no water available !
In the building where the lawyer had his office there was no toilet at all !
If you have an office goer in Panjim, the capital city, having to go to a
pavement you can imagine the situation in the rest of Goa.
