When using the bathroom,

Haha this is a wild question, got to be closed for me!



I used to always lock the door, even if I was alone in the house. Until one night I woke up around 4am, and ended up getting myself locked in the bathroom, the deadbolt completely failed. Well I was stuck in there for a good few hours, so I have a fear of locking the door now.

oh geebus. see I wouldn't let myself get stuck that like... keep various tools on my person when I'm up and about including a screwdriver... there's no deadbolt on the bathroom door but if there was and it was jammed? I'd disassemble the lock and get it open XD.

I was honestly so stressed, I'm sure I had work in the morning too! I had to get an emergency locksmith out, and he ended up doing some damage to the door, my landlord was not happy and tried to use it as a deposit dispute when we moved out, even though she was aware and even deducted from our rent to cover the cost of the locksmith which I paid. 🙈

Rule#1 don't panic no matter what the situation there's always a solution if you know enough and are prepared enough.
Given the situation in question it probably goes without saying but I hope you knew where your towel was XD.

Closed and locked, no matter if someone is home or not.

Why lock the door if nobody is there?
