Accidentally set off the motion-activated sink over and over

I was in a public restroom washing my hands when I accidentally stepped too close to the motion-activated sink next to me. It blasted on and splashed water onto the side of my shirt. Not ideal, but whatever.

Then I stepped back—and the sink turned on again.
I shifted sideways—another sink activated.
I moved to grab a paper towel—another sink triggered and sprayed the counter.

At some point I just started laughing because I looked like someone losing a battle with invisible plumbing. A woman walked in, saw three sinks going off around me like I was summoning water spirits, and slowly backed out.

I left soaking wet, emotionally humbled, and now I avoid motion sensors whenever possible.
