That's not even how it was alleged to work. The claim was that the quota system made it hard for them to use the bathroom without hitting their numbers, not that anybody prevented them from using the bathroom. And, quite honestly, a *lot* of companies with time metrics look at shit like that. And a lot of customer-facing jobs won't necessarily give you a chance to use the bathroom when you need to at times.

I worked as a stower for them and, well...

Technically you have 'unlimited' bathroom breaks, but even if you want to be a good little worker it was a three-to-five minute hike for me to the nearest restroom and it was woefully small compared to the actual need. Like, two stalls total. I always saw a line in both the mens and womens areas going out the door. When a bathroom break can easily take 5-10 minutes just to travel back and forth and there's a line any hope of filling a quota may as well go up in smoke.
