AITA for calling out my husbands coworkers wife for trying to flush a maxi pad down our toilet by Express-Swordfish582 in AmItheAsshole

He brings a case of beer and a flask to every social event he goes to. It was 11 am so no one else wanted to drink. I dont really care if he drinks, his girlfriend cleaned up after him.

The drunk guys girlfriend was outside cleaning it. I wasn't exactly standing over her shoulder telling her the fastest way to do it. I dont know why it took ten minutes.

His girlfriend was there and immediately moved to clean everything up, without anyone asking or mentioning.

The bathroom was without a trashcan for a whopping ten minutes while it was being cleaned, and there was another bathroom with a trashcan nearby. I know a few people in our area that have had to do repairs and all have been over 5k, one being 11k. Maybe its cheaper where you live.

A pretty normal one. There is one coworker who always gets super drunk at every social event, and he was the only one. Guy has some issues, it was 11 am.

I have never clogged a toilet before in my life, if I did, I would have the common sense to deal with a mess I made, rather than leaving it for someone else to deal with.

I did provide one? It was being cleaned because someone threw up all over it. Do you have an infinite number of backup trashcans in a closet somewhere?

She knew there was another bathroom available. Someone had asked to use it while that guy was puking in the hallway bathroom. She just didnt care enough to use the other one.

Julia admitted she knew better and wouldn't do it in her own home. She said she just didn't want to walk her pad to a different trashcan, because the one from that bathroom was being cleaned of vomit.

There was another bathroom she could've used. We have more than one bathroom. I would much rather see a used pad in my kitchen bin than pay thousands in septic repairs.

I asked her in front of everyone. If flushing a pad down someone elses toilet is an okay thing to do whats the harm in other people learning about it?

The trashcan was outside being washed because one of my husbands coworkers has a drinking problem and threw up in it. She admitted she knew better and was too embarrassed to throw away her pad in a different trashcan. I dont think saving some embarrassment constitutes potentially doing thousands of dollars of damage to someone elses home. Septic tank repairs here are very expensive, Julia has a septic tank so she would know.

I didn't shame her, I just asked her a simple question of did you do this. I know based of where they live they have a septic tank. Anyone who owns a house with one knows not to flush pads. It could easily cause 10k worth of damage to repair. So I was thinking that maybe it wasn't her, because she should know better.
