Slow Down, no need to Rush
 
I see a lot of posts asking why people are going so fast in the Villages. Carts that are exceeding 20 mph, Passing others and speeding around. What's the Rush? We're mostly retired and have plenty of time.
But in the Villages we may not have 'plenty of time'. Tee times are generally booked to the max. They aren't going to understand if you arrive a few minutes late. If you don't make it to a recreation class on time they'll fill up and start without you. You won't get a seat at the nightly entertainment if you take your time getting there. Things fill up fast in the Villages, especially during the Winter months.

Are people rushing around, going too fast for no reason or is it the Villages environment that induces us to have to rush to get somewhere on time. We still have appointments that need to be kept. Most of us have more and more Medical and care and upkeep appointments than when we were younger. Some are so active that after pickleball they have only a few minutes to get to the next activity and following that activity there's a Yoga class a few golf cart miles away that you need to be early for or you don't get in. Dragon Boat, Softball, Water Volleyball and other team sports need team members to be on time.

For those of you with the whole day to yourself and can go at a leisurely pace and no rush to get anywhere, do you live in the Villages? What activates are you doing that allow you to not be concerned about arriving on time?

Is the Villages environment the cause of all the Rushing about or do you see another reason?

The Villages isn’t the problem, it lack of ability to plan ahead. Ya know I no longer get paid to be there so, I will arrive when I so choose.

Thank goodness the chosen ones are few and far between

If you leave the house on time, you will arrive at your appointment on time.

Moreover, being retired means you are able to leave early and have a leisurely journey.

So, you have so many opportunities to have fun, you can't do them all without rushing around?

And, you are privileged with awesome healthcare but all the appointments interfere with all the fun?

Really?

IMO many suffer from fear of missing out. They over book their activities then rush to the next and next because they don't want to be left out. My wife and I plan our days around the crowds. We have met many people who enjoy a low key lifestyle and we always have a great time. Like Asian Three stated, "I'll get there when I get there." I am not going to play a game of race the clock.

Michael 61 12-02-2023 07:32 AM

I’m booked for several events/recreations/classes/clubs/dining reservations each day. I don’t rush to any of them. It’s all about planning. I’m notorious for showing up early to most events/appointments.

Yep. Several "reasons" in fact.

1) Poor planning. LEAVE EARLIER!!! Pretty much a no-brainer.

2) "I matter more than anybody", which apparently is the rationale for folks who routinely break laws or engage in dangerous driving to get to somewhere that they neglected to allow enough time for in the first place. It's apparently fine for some to engage in activities that, if they were on the receiving end and ended up with substantial vehicle and/or personal damage, would mean that they'd be on the horn to Morgan & Morgan as soon as they could get to a phone.

3) "It is the responsibility of others to get out of MY way". See #2, but a tad more self-centered.

And, finally...

#4) "I know I'm a rude, cantankerous old bleepbleepbleepetybleep but I've been this way for _____ years and there is no way on earth that I'm gonna change my ways!"

Bill14564 12-02-2023 07:59 AM

I would agree it is the Villages environment, both the number of activities and the number of inconsiderate Villagers.

There are a lot of activities spread out across a large area. On one particular day I have back-to-back events at Seabreeze and Bridgeport and on another at Aviary and Everglades. There is enough time to travel between but it is tight.

Not all Villagers are inconsiderate. In fact, probably few are, but those few really foul things up. I have left enough time to get where I am going as long as I don't catch up to a retired person with nowhere to go, all day to get there, and a belief in their constitutional right to hold up everyone behind them.

I wonder sometimes if the carts racing around are really exceeding 20mph or if they are simply going faster than the cart meandering down the path at 15mph. I'm sure that I have been accused of racing - I am also sure my cart is limited to 20mph.

bsloan1960 12-02-2023 08:02 AM

In 8th grade, my teacher made me write the following 500 times:

"It is discourteous and inappropriate to be repeatedly tardy to business and social engagements".

I don't know if this tedious chore is the reason- but I'm never late to anything- ever. I'm always early. Everything mentioned by OP is the result of each and every individual failing to plan. It is astonishing to me that many of these people who must rush to make tee times were in business prior to retirement. Also, many were in the military. Neither tolerate poor time management. Just as I'm rarely late- some people are rarely on time. Don't blame your schedule- blame your inability to master the simple task of being on time.

Sorry. It appears a #5 should be added to the list of excuses on post #7.

7) It is always the OTHER GUY'S fault.

OP, you can either control your “time schedule” or let the “schedule” control
You. If you don’t, two things are likely to happen. You will “burn out” or you will become frustrated and quit.

VApeople 12-02-2023 10:53 AM

When I drive, I do not care what you want me to do. I'm going to drive how I want to and you have to learn how to deal with me.

I have had discussions about driving techniques with others on TOTV. When I describe how I drive, some of them get very upset with me, but it does not matter. I truly enjoy driving and I get to where I am going, so I am not going to change.

Wouldn't it be nice if doctors/dentists/etc. kept their side of the bargain!

I always arrive at such appointments at least ten minutes early (to complete any paperwork etc.) but am usually kept waiting at least twenty minutes after my appointment time.

vintageogauge 12-02-2023 11:02 AM

Every one says why are you always in a hurry, you're retired so take your time. I feel that at my age I don't know how much time I have left so I'm always in a hurry to get where I'm going or in whatever I'm doing so I can get more done in the time that I do have left. There's plenty of time to slow down at the end.

Pondboy 12-02-2023 11:08 AM

I think people are oblivious to speed limits. I drive a company truck monitored by GPS. So my speed is checked and we get calls if we’re speeding, etc.,.

The other week I was driving down Meggison (by Franklin Rec) where the speed limit is 35. A white Lexus SUV was riding my bumper. Finally when they were able to pass, they honked their horn at me….like I was the bad guy. So, totally oblivious.

Actually, the speed limit is 30 mph along that area of Meggison. You were speeding.

Where Meggison is a 4-lane road, like Morse and Buena Vista, the speed limit is 35 mph. When it becomes a 2-lane road after Sawgrass, the speed limit decreases to 30 mph, just like it is on Moyer and Pinellas.

That does not happen at Palm Ridge Dental. They see my wife and I soon after we get there.

Why are so many so over scheduled in their retirement?
Maybe you should do a little less and take time to relax.

Palm Ridge Dental is excellent both in their work and their timing. Great clinic.

Dr. George at Hearts of the Villages is a great cardiologist, but I have been their twice when he was called out to the hospital on an emergency. Dr. Rivers is a very good doctor, not so his timing with appointments, way over appointment time.

tophcfa 12-02-2023 02:51 PM

The reason I love the Village’s so much is because there are way more fun things I want to do every day than the day is long. It’s truly a first world problem. I have come to accept the fact that I have gotten old and my remaining time to enjoy all those things is limited. When the unavoidable day finally comes when I can no longer do the activities that make me happy, I don’t want to have any regrets that I didn’t squeeze in as much fun as possible. I always carefully calibrate and allocate an appropriate amount of time to get to the next activity on time, assuming nobody slows me down traveling in one of our golf carts governed to not exceed the speed limit. If somebody prevents me from getting to my destination on time, knowing I am not exceeding any speed limits, I am going to do whatever is safely necessary to get in front of them. It’s not me being rude, it’s on them for disrespecting and wasting my time.

Two Bills 12-02-2023 04:58 PM

Why would anyone want a doctor or dentist whose diagnosis or treatment is based on the clock.
I want someone who will not kick me out the door when my time is up.
Who cares if the patient in front of me needs a few more minutes for a full examination or reassurance.
I may need those few extra minutes one day.

Interesting take, and not a bad one.

The other side of that particular coin though is the doctors and dentists who routinely overbook appointments to compensate for anticipated no-shows. I don't know if it happens here but back in Minnesota it was a relatively common practice. When the no-shows DO show, it causes backups, sometimes of an hour or more. quite annoying.

Honesty! Impressive.

I understand judges respect honesty.

Here's an idea. Mind your own business! If nobody caused you damage or harm, go about your business and don't come whine about it on a message board. Nobody cares about your "but they could have...." bs.

It is definitely NOT the environment of TV. In your case, just because you are a poor planner, chronically late, and enroll in activities too close together, you think its OK for you to break the law, speed, and drive recklessly? See how that excuse works for the officer that pulls you over (hopefully before you cause a crash & injure someone). That type of reasoning is a perfect example of the selfish, entitled TV resident who puts their personal desires first and jeopardizes all other's safety on the paths or highway.

Ah so maybe you’re suggesting it’s the environment that turns golf car drivers into entitled ******** vs something more inherent in the residents. Hadn’t considered that…..FOMO is certainly a thing. Maybe?

But you seem to forget that a lot of us still work at least part time, so not everyone is retired. Some of us have to be places on time and getting behind somebody going 16 or 17 mph may make us late. Nothing wrong with a safe pass in a safe area.

We have friends who suffer from this syndrome...there's an acronym for it...FOMO...Fear of Missing Out. They frequently schedule events back to back and then call to say they'll be a few minutes late because their other event ran long. Wife and I just laugh about it sometimes.

huge-pigeons 12-03-2023 06:43 AM

The drivers of the villages are terrible drivers as a whole. 1/2 of them don’t know how to use the roundabouts, people that don’t go the speed limit are always in the left lane, and these same drivers are not courteous.
These slow people should not be driving in the left lane just like if you are on the freeways. Move over, but this doesn’t happen. So now you have 2 slow people blocking access with nobody in front of them. Same goes for the golf carts, if you can’t go as fast as someone behind you, why don’t you let them pass.
Just because you don’t have anywhere to go or anything to do that requires a timeline, don’t make it difficult for people that do.

Cindysum90 12-03-2023 06:45 AM

Plan your time so you don’t have to rush!

Is there anything that can be done about these “e-bikes” that don’t even need to be pedaled? Was passed by a guy going at least 35 yesterday. Weaving in and out of carts like the motorcycles on the expressway. Didn’t pedal one time. It was extremely dangerous!

I agree with you on the lack of courtesy and ability amongst TV drivers. But if I’m going the speed limit, I’m not pulling over to let someone pass.

No need to rush. LEAVE EARLIER. Pretty simple. It’s not TV, it’s YOU. It’s called personal responsibility.

I have had discussions about driving techniques with others on TOTV. When I describe how I drive, some of them get very upset with me, but it does not matter. I truly enjoy driving and I get to where I am going, so I am not going to change.

THAT IS THE MOST SELFISH SENTENCE I HAVE EVER READ. You should be reported to the DMV as an unsafe driver and have your license suspended! People who don’t think the rules apply to them are DANGEROUS! I was a professional driver for 35 years, so I KNOW what’s what. I hope I NEVER encounter you!
