You know, you aren't necessarily going to get sick from drinking out of a (recently-flushed) toilet—it's tap water, plus a small quantity of filth. Besides, dogs do it all the time, and don't fall ill. Plus, you have an immune system for a reason.

It's essentially a fable: the story is about the symbolism, not the actual efficacy of some janitor's particular method of cleaning toilets. (And besides, the source is unknown—it might as well be an outright fabrication.)
