The dream starts out in a factory. The setting is dimly lit, the walls are concrete, and the ceiling is very high and held up with iron beams.

I'm working at a bench and it's hard to put into words what I'm doing and seeing, but for some reason, I have a small desk fan that's cord is wrapped around something way up high on the beam and I'm tugging at the cord to get the fan down. I don't' know what the thing is, but it looks like some sort of control panel or radio. What I'm working on at the bench resembles the material used in the smocks I used to wear at a real life factory job years ago.

Then the scene changes and I'm doing the job I have now. The student I work with has recreation time and we are going to go swimming, but he has an appointment first and will be back by 7 p.m. I find a place to get my bathing suit on so I can go in the pool and wait for him to return. I enter a locker room to use the bathroom and get changed, but all the stalls are taken. Many of them have doors missing and I can see both men and woman using the toilets. A man enters and another one combs his hair in a mirror. I decide to find another place to change and go to the bathroom.

Now I enter a place thats part apartment and college dorm room. It feels like a school setting. The place has mini apartments for each guest but with no walls separating each one. I go into the furthest corner space and the bra part of my bathing suit is unsewed and I try to figure out a way to fix it. I notice the clock says 6:15. I ask one of the occupants of the place where a bathroom is. She points to a porcelain tub-like structure with a sink at one end and a faucet with running water and the rest is a sold porcelain flat bed. I ask, "How do you use that?" She demonstrates by putting her butt into the sink part and says "Then you straddle the rest like this" as she puts her legs on each side of the thing. I say, "That looks very uncomfortable. I think I'll go somewhere else."

I really had to pee too!

I suppose the obvious thing to point out is the difficulty you have in finding some relief.

Sometimes nature lets you know you've got to relieve yourself but gives you these situations in which you can't at the moment because you'll wake up soak and wet.

Of course that's true, most of the time when we need to pee in dreams it's because we really do need to pee.
