Excuses for interviewing during summer?

Incoming SA at a LMM (think DA Davidson, Capstone, B Riley) and am planning to re recruit FT this coming summer, but I want to make sure I get the return offer. How can I discretely take a call during the day / how can I fit a call into my schedule? I think it will be easy to tell I'm lying if I say something like "I'm going to the dentist"

Unrelated to this, but I take 20 min bathroom breaks or so. When I poo, I like to really get clean. There is one stall which is big that has a sink in it. Sometimes I'll travel up and down floors to find that particular bathroom (because they are identical across floors). I like to use water to make sure I don't get dookie underwear. It just does not feel clean to just use paper. Consequently, it does take me 20+ mins when I for a number 2. Usually also why I try to only take a dump at like 19.00 or later, not during the day.

Tell your bank to get a bidet.

Washing in the sink is crazy. Tf is wrong with y’all.
