I was at the airport departure gate I was washing my hands in the
restroom, when I heard someone inside a toilet cubicle trying to
unlock the door - she was turning and turning it but for some reason
it would not open! I noticed that she was trapped and could not open
the door, so I told her I would help her. I took a look at the lock -
it was different from the normal toilet lock. Luckily, I knew just
what to do because of all the times I had rescued kids from being
locked in the toilet when I was an Au pair. So I checked my bag for
some sort of tool, but since my swiss army knife was confiscated at
Brussels airport I didn't really have anything that would work. I
kept searching and whipped out my wallet, I tried a coin but it was
too thick, then I happened to have one little thin coin. I tried that
and was able to twist the lock open!
The woman was very relieved.
I was thrilled! I chuckled to myself over the skills that I learned
as an Au pair!
