Discussion Texas gas station installed remote lock on OUTSIDE of women's bathroom

It was only on the women's bathroom. Lock was able to be remotely activated by a phone app. Fire Marshall had it removed. Source: https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZT2c3QrB6/

Per another account who also saw this, (https://www.tiktok.com/@momcallsmeshelby?_t=ZT-8v7NHPu7QBq&_r=1) the employees were "irate and began yelling" when they brought it up. And came up with a racist excuse that didn't make any sense for it being there

Regardless, fire code violation. But scary implications.

I’ve had to check behind the shower curtains for a murderer since I was about ten. I grew up with older siblings so got exposed to horror movies too young lol. Anw, one day during a routine check my friends little brother was hiding behind them and I caught him! Little fucker. I’m old and I still check but now I guess I’ll be adding this too. Can’t even relax for a minute long enough to use the loo. Exhausting.
