Chatting at the urinal is verboten in the US. It's an unwritten rule. You'll be the village pariah if you try.
Unless you're at a dive bar, in which case it's apparently mandatory.
My boss chatted me about a project at the urinal during our quarterly onsite a few months back. Wtf dude. Can you really not wait til we get back to the conference room‽
It's only maybe acceptable in the rare instance that you walk into the restroom together with a friend mid-conversation
There are certain repeat offenders at my workplace
Tell them you're trying something new for the new year: that your body faces those you talk to. If they start up a conversation while at the urinal, just rotate your body to face them. Because it's important to focus your full attention when conversing. They'll stop after the first time.
