THAT'S NOT HOW THIS WORKS.

So, for those who don't know, I'm kind of a pee-pee professional. I work for a clinic as the Field Service Rep for the lab who does their toxicology testing. Mostly urine samples, sometimes oral swabs.
My job brings all sorts of people into my life, and you get to observe many walks of life in my line of work.
However, I just need to say two things:
DRINKING WATER 12 SECONDS BEFORE YOU'RE GOING TO PEE IN A CUP WILL NOT HELP YOU. THAT'S NOT HOW THAT WORKS. Don't stop me mid-explanation to ask me to fetch you a glass of water to chug like it's somehow going to pass through you and your bladder before your booty hits the throne in a minute.
And secondly, IF YOU HAVE TO GIVE A PEE SAMPLE, FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, DON'T HAND IT OFF SOPPING WET WITH YOUR URINE ALL OVER IT. At least wrap a paper towel around it. Yes, I wear gloves, and not much really truly grosses me out but ew. So much ew. THAT'S NOT HOW THAT WORKS.
I realize these are really simple complaints. What are your 'THAT'S NOT HOW THAT WORKS' moments/rants from your day to day life?

You can't give me your peepee, I take your saliva. (evil laugh) 3 -

I'm a pee pee professional too, 12' out and I still hit the bowl. All of my friends swore they wouldn't believe it if they hadn't been watching me with their own eyes.7

Short of borrowing someone else's pee who is a sober individual and coincidentally takes the same prescription medicine as you (legally), and managing to sneak it into the restroom WARM to also pass my temp strip test... There really isn't one. At least not at my clinic.
You could always try not doing illicit drugs, though.13 -

Those are those cashiers at fast food joints who don't wipe the cups when they spill over the side either. Drives me of the effin' wall!2 -

Aside from employer required drug tests and medical reasons, people that have to pee in a cup regularly aren't known for making the best life choices.3 -

I work in finance, and I can't watch 30 seconds of just about any politician or pundit on TV talk about banking or the economy without wanting to yell "THAT'S NOT HOW ANY OF THIS WORKS" at the screen.10

When I was in high school, a kid came in eating McDonald's everyday, but he stayed skinny. When asked how he doesn't gain weight, he said it was simple. After eating McDonald's, he goes to the bathroom and poops it out. Viola. The secret to staying skinny. He was a senior. I wonder whatever happened to him.6

What doesn't it do?!
It sits on the rim of the toilet, and catches ze pee pees, and then if I'm very lucky the elderly woman with whom I'm collecting from will allow me to pour it in the cup for her.
My job is very glamorous.10 -
I'm really regretting that selfie.
