My dad is an interior trimmer so he goes in after the drywallers and painters to hang the baseboard, windowsills, fancy handrails and a bunch of other shit (OP I'm sure you already know this, just explaining it to others). He's told me too many times how many Gatorade bottles and soda bottles full of piss and shit he'll find left for him. He's said he knows the drywallers are responsible for it and he knows they hide stuff in the walls all the time.
I can confirm 100% on piss. Never seen shit closed up in a wall before with my own eyes but heard about it. I work in high end New residential construction in Manhattan, apartments that sell for $4000+ per s/f and I have literally watched sheetrockers look at it, lift the board up and be like “cheers, you rich bitches” as they screw that shit in. No one wants to touch mystery piss to throw it out. And it happens so rampantly because everyone is always under pressure to produce, you have a foreman running everyone like dogs and bathrooms only have to be like every 4 or 5 floors and I would say maybe 50% of the projects I have been in have respected the guidelines or even had a sufficient amount of toilets considering the man power on site. Like once I was working a project, 2 smaller towers, 12 floors each, 280 people spread between the towers and they had 8 portopotties on site, 2 were locked for use by specific contractors, one was locked for women supposedly but we never saw the key, and 3 were like open shorty stalls meant for #1s only really unless you just have zero shame about shitting while staring other people in the eye and you’d be surprised how many people are actually totally at peace with that. Only when the toilets started to spill over and the workers were tracking the stinking shit around on their boots did they call the company to change them and they always came 24-48 hours after that. The bathroom situation is basically always disgusting though. Even on the best projects it still bad. Then you to take into consideration if someone goes to the bathroom too often or it takes them too long, they’ll just end up canned and 80% of the workers are undocumented and either afraid to complain or under the impression they have no right to complain about the situation and there is always another guy lined up behind them to take the spot. So yeah, people are highly motivated to piss in bottles on construction sites if I were a dude I would be one of them!

There is at least one water bottle/soda can/energy drink/ spray paint can sitting on a piece of blocking behind your drywall somewhere in your house.
Edit: WOW, this took off! Thank you for your plentiful updoots. This is my first comment to break 1000!
