Poor AP! You so don't need the stress!
We've all totally had this problem!!!! If I have to be in the office to go, I go at odd times so that I don't run into anybody. I hate people who talk to me while I'm in the stall. It's like, go somewhere else, Now! NOW!
I also find different floors with fewer women/quieter bathrooms/less foot traffic and use the toilet there. If I'm in dire need of a one-seater, a restaurant across the street is nice and anonymous. But only if I can get there in time.
If worse comes to worse, I will ball up tp in my hands and press my face into it, closing my eyes and plugging my ears, and wishing I was on an M class planet all by myself. Urgency, pain, loss of dignity and a strong suspension of disbelief are a must for that one.
I guarantee, the other people in close proximity will be shocked into silence.
