If the odor is in a single hole washroom (although this applies to all washrooms), you might check the floor drain. Every washroom is required to have one, but if they never get water poured into them the trap dries out and the sewage gases back up into the room. Can get quickly unpleasant and may be what you are experiencing. Take a large glass of water and pour down the drain to fill up the trap, and hopefully the orders will go away. As a contractor, I have had more than one client complain of the odors and it was a simple fix (if you don't want to keep doing it, use vegetable oil as it won't evaporate).
Don't complain. About the last 3 years I worked at my last place of employment, I sat right in front of both the men's and women's bathrooms. I could hear EVERY SINGLE SOUND that emanated from the men's bathroom and learned way more about my coworkers bathroom habits than I ever wanted to.
For instance, one coworker used the facilities to go No. 2 about 4-5 times a day and when he was done, he would use about 20-plus strips of TP to clean himself up. Seriously, I could hear him using the roller to unroll the TP and I counted one time. I didn't start counting right away, but started after he had already done it 4-5 times. He got up to 20 before he finally quit, so he had to have used at least 25 strips of TP on that trip. Then when he washed his hands, he would used about 8-10 paper towels to dry them.
And when I said I could hear every single sound, I mean every sound. It was not pleasant. For some reason, I couldn't hear the sounds coming out of the women's bathroom. although I was technically closer to it than the men's room.
My company says we're not supposed to poop in ours.
I honestly think the only crap smell that I’ve been exposed to that is worse was the year a Korean guy got put with me and two buddies out in Freddy Ct. Nice guy, pretty quiet dude. But when he would cook and eat Kimchi, holy mf’ing hell, that was so freakin awful. My one buddy was kinda mean and made him a chart of our schedules and told him if he ate kimchi, he could only poop during certain hours for the next couple days when we had class or work.
I'd rather have someone use too much TP rather than not enough . . . gotta get clean.
No, but I had a guy sitting in back of me and he was always yelling at people when they came out of the restroom without washing their hands. You could tell when someone didn't wash their hands because you wouldn't hear the paper towel dispenser. So the guy sitting in back of me could hear every sound coming from the bathroom too, that's how loud it was, or how close we were to the bathroom, or how good the accoustics were in the bathroom.
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh yes they do. They definitely do. Don’t ever give them that leeway. They are just as much guilty as any man and blow up a bathroom with the best of anyone.
In a couple of my former jobs I had to on occasion go into women's restrooms to check on maintenance issues and check the work of my janitors. Women can be and often are just as nasty as men in the messes they leave for the next user and/or the cleaning crew. I was often amazed at the number of women who don't even bother to flush the john after dropping a deuce in it.
My hometown Casey's used that one holer to store their overstock chewing tobacco as well. Those original Casey's stores are like the wild west.
First job out of college, we had this older engineer, probably late 50s, early 60s. Anyway, my first real work trip out of town was with him. We'll call him Steve because that was his name. We're flying Omaha to Denver to Vancouver. We land in Denver and proceed to walk to our next gate. Steve proceeds to fart, quite loudly I might add, all the way through the airport. And DEN is a looooong airport.
The first time, I'm like "Oh my, that's embarrassing for him." Then it kept happening and I realized "he just doesn't care!"
As I worked at that company for many more years, I learned Steve was notorious for farting with reckless abandon and was well-known for not washing his hands and taking candy from the community jar.

IMO you haven’t had a real job experience until you have worked with a “Steve”
The man in the neighboring hotel room we had in memphis for the bowl game vs Toledo was named Steve. The walls were quite thin. We chose a different hotel for the next visit.
I've learned airport bathrooms are where you'll find literally the worst smells and sounding smells on the planet. No one gives AF because they're about to get out of dodge.
