Honey Bucket

"Honey Bucket" instead of port-a-potties is definitely the grossest term I've come across here. I'm not sure I'll ever get used to it. Some claim that it's "just a brand name." I could maybe accept that (would still be gross), but it's more than just a brand name. It is this region's typical phrase used for the structure in which you go to defecate. I don't expect gross, more fitting names like "shit hole," but really.... Honey Bucket?!

ha ha! That was one of the craziest things to get used to here. And on our 2-day bike ride to Vancouver, you bet there were a LOT of Honey Buckets!

Nate LOVES the name, I think it's disgusting. Once he threatened to make "Honey Bucket" my pet name.

I think "Honey Bucket" is a brilliant name. Plus, it shows that this company can laugh at itself.

You should Google "Honey Bucket" to educate yourself on where the term originated from. It's really quite interesting.

I did it because I wanted to know more about the company. Why? Because I work there.
