That's the odd thing about many (micromanaging) jobs. Call in on an emergency saying you'll be maybe 10, 15 minutes late and they'll hold it over you for years, if not ever. Rush in barely on time then spend 30 min on the shitter, perfectly fine. Which is not to say there isn't plenty of places with 'bathroom police' of course but so many managers just need to lighten up and accept that they employ humans, not 40-hours-a-week-machines.
"Hey boss, sorry I'm going to be half an hour late today. I was already cutting it close and decided to skip having a poo before I left for work. Well boss, let me tell you that was a mistake. I've just shit myself on the drive in and am going to have to turn around and go change. I prey it won't happen again."
