therefore people used it as a mirror! lol.
I can't help it but notice that they use it for mirror.. i am seated where the front door is very clear. I could see people passing by..but the ones outside won't be able to see anything, its like a mirror.. lol so most who pass by would..stop and pause and see how they look like, some would stop and comb their hair, some would stop and fix their clothes..but this one i just saw stop...and picked his nose!
i am also guilty of looking at tinted glasses too, like when i pass a car and i would like glance at its window and see how i look but i usually feel is someone is inside or not..but i never did it in a mirror. being silly again!

That awkward moment is when someone uses your car's side mirror and you are inside your car
I have this experience many times.
There was a time that this young lady use my side mirror while retouching her make-up and when she's almost done I open my window and said "you're pretty"..
she was kind of

Oh I have the same habit---I always check my reflection on any reflective surface I pass by, including mirrors on elevator ceilings! I can't quite kick the habit, but certainly I do not do anything embarrassing! Mostly I just brush my fingers through my hair. Sometimes, I might smile at myself. There is this clinic and it's class walls are covered in some sort of foil that reflects images really clearly, and I always pass by the place. There are people inside, and surely they see me often!

I think that most of us do this at least sometimes. We at least take a quick glance to make sure that we don't look too wilted from the humidity, that we don't have a smudge of chocolate from the candy we just ate, that our outfit really does look as good as we thought it did earlier.
I don't stop and do a serious grooming, though. If something really needs remedied, that's when one seeks out a restroom and makes use of the mirror(s) and privacy that it offers.

hi,
i have seen that kind too,in my office the mirror are tinted so when the outside of the office used it as a mirror because they can see their whole body,and sometimes all people inside in the office smiled and laugh because there were a group of gays who danced and looked in the mirror while dancing.and those gays were such a crazy while dancing.

It must be fun seeing the people just assume that no one can see them. It reminds me of one guy once saying how people assume because they are inside their cars no one can see them, he brought it up because of seeing people do a series of things like pick their noses, pick their teeth, pop pimples, etc etc It is as if since there is a mirror people are drawn to it. I am not a mirror person, just walk buy, but it is interesting how many people do stop and check themselves when they walk past.

Well it seems strange. Sorry to ask this question: What material is made to your office door?
A material in which there can be mirror.
Probably I can imagine that this door has the glossy plastic surface. For this reason, it is possible in that the mirror surface of it is smooth.
Of course it must be something very strange to see all the people who pass by this door, combing hair, looking through, and in fact do all those things you usually make in a personal manner before the mirror of our house.

I am guilty of looking at myself through tinted doors and even windows. Sometimes even if I don't feel anything wrong with my face or hair, it just happen in an impulse, I would glance at myself through the tinted door.
You are quite an observant, aren't you. Seeing someone pick his nose is funny. I would have laugh myself I saw that one! Your office door is cool!

This is pretty natural. Everyone wants to look good in front of others especially the opposite gender. I am now doing my Internship and I somehow got a meeting room as my own office. The room has a glass door which is also tinted just like yours. All the time the workers at my division would pass by and sometimes stopped to fix their clothes and hair. Of course I did the same too. Well, we do have to take care of our image.
