Yikes....we gave up our pool when we moved here. Thought we'd scale down on some maintenance and get out and be more social. Now I'm really sorry we did...this is gross, and one of the reasons I never go to hotel hot tubs (heard from a hotel security guy most hotel hot tubs are notorious for "goings on" and maybe I didn't wanna sit in that water). Glad the water is starting to get cooler...maybe I'll forget all about this by the time I'm ready to go back in the pool next year! P.S. I'm sure I would've said something directly to that slob...unbelievable!

I agree, your own pool is cleaner.. I see this ALL the time in various pools!!!! Yikes!!!!!

I'm not saying what I would do is the right thing. If I saw this person doing this I would say something to him. What he is doing is a health hazard . If he has any kind of sickness, flu, cold, ect ,he is putting everyone in that pool at risk.

I don't use public pools. I leave that to the folks with athletes foot, jock itch, yeast infections, herpes, hemorrhoids, conjunctivitis, nail fungus, etc.

I am really surprised at the lack of people here that are willing to confront this slob. It seems that everyone is so ready to flip others the bird while driving, writing notes and leaving them on golf carts (previous thread), and even being rather testy towards one another here on TOTV. But, when it comes to actual face-to-face admonishment, reading back on the previous posts, only one person said he/she would say something.

That's a sad situation we've got here.

How pleasant.

I had thought about swimming during my LSV...not anymore.

Can we acknowledge that this is the exception and not the rule? I hope so.

kittygilchrist 09-27-2013 02:11 PM

I just want to say this is the most totally disgusting post and human behavior I have ever seen on TOTV.

You're absolutely right ... I agree that this is the exception and not the rule. I think that many thousands of residents have been swimming for years in the public pools without any ill effects.
But the behavior that prompted this thread is vile.

There is a manager at the family pools. If you see someone doing these vile things go inside and speak with them and let the manager tell the offending party.

yuck

Lots of people complain about the chlorine in pools. I like chlorine....and 70,000 gallons of water to dilute "everything".

Eeeeewww. This is the perfect reason to get our own pool.
