Sanibel Rec. Pool
 
I had the first of what I hope is my last experience at a community pool. Our pool at Sanibel is closed for refinishing. No big deal I decided I would swim at the Sanible Rec pool today. While swimming and talking I noticed a white cloud of something floating on the top of the water. The woman I was talking to asked me if it was pollen. A closer look revealed it to be someone's spit. Yes, someone decided they would cleanse their nasal passage in the pool. We quickly spotted the older gentleman doing this. We both removed ourselves from the pool. As we sat in the chairs deciding whether to report this rude behavior we witnessed the man continually doing this while he swam. I rinsed off under the shower, went into the rec center and told them. I can not believe that a person would do anything like this in our pools. Some people really need a lesson in manners.

Another example of "stupid"!

Hope that's all he left behind.

Why not say something to the offending jackass?

I wouldn't say anything to him for fear he'd hack up a big one and spit on me. Just the description of it above makes me nauseated.

Or for fear that he's got even more screws loose and would pull a gun.

I guess all the folks peeing in the pool are covered by the "Out of sight, out of mind" rule.

that is the most disgusting thing I've read here, and that's going a ways...the staff should be notified. that behavior is grounds for ejection.

This is so disgusting. I always wondered why people have their own pools , now I know why!!

Erijo 09-26-2013 09:30 PM

I was in a hot tub at a gym here in San Diego. A man was actually sitting in the hot tub with others and S H A V I N G!! I saw him do it then stick the razor under water. I asked him, "Why are you doing that in here", and he said, NO LIE .... "I don't see a sign saying you can't"! I said . . . "Sir, WHY WOULD YOU THINK ANYBODY WANTS TO SWIM AROUND IN YOUR WHISKERS, OR BETTER YET . . . YOUR MICROSCOPIC BLOOD CELLS??????"

He was a professional-type man - just looked at me like I was a meanie, and said, "I never thought about it that way". GEEEZ. I was so insensed, I climbed out right then and others followed me. Management said, "We can't monitor everybody all the time". What are people thinking??

Right. More of the "Entitled" generations dominating society these days.

And that was a LAME manager, because the water chemistry and sanitization has to be maintained according to health department rules/laws, and shaving cream or soap in there would be a sudsing mess.

Just say, "Hey fella, that's snot nice." That's disgusting.
