The thing in view

So here's the thing. The men's room shared by all offices on this floor is a tiny, cramped, claustrophobic thing more suited to installation in a submarine than an aboveground structure. It has one urinal and two stalls. The unscreened urinal is on a slight pedestal, and situated such that, when the door is open, the view of it is unobstructed—unless, of course, someone happens to be washing his hands at the sink. The sink, you see, is about a foot from the urinal, and affixed to the wall at about the same height as the urinal's lower edge.

What I don't get is why a person who chose to use that urinal when empty stalls were available would feel a need to glare at someone opening the door and coming inside. Spatial relationships not your strong suit, Ace?
