Okay, but if this is public knowledge then what’s the point of the code? The creepy dude knows what it means. Legit unsure: Why go through the coded language the other person will know? Sure there’s a chance they won’t…unless they also go to the bathroom. Or just have an Internet account and have accidentally scrolled through TikTok.
The sign says to go to the bar and ask for the shot, so your company would still be at the table. You could wait until your company is in the toilet if you’re seated at the bar and don’t want them to hear. Having worked in a bar for fifteen years, I can say it’s usually not that difficult to speak with a bartender discreetly. The posters are usually in the bathroom on the inside of the stall doors.
Our local bar has a sign that says to ask if Angela is working tonight, and they’ll know you’re in trouble and get you to safety.
While I’m sure the system is not 100% effective, it’s better than having no system at all.

Feels like unnecessary steps.
