So, who wins the Darwin award?

The cruise line for departing?
The authorities for allowing it?
Or the passengers that boarded it?

Darwin Award goes to stupid passengers

Yet there is still a group of men who bring chairs down to the Square and sit on the sidewalk on the north side of the Square blocking pedestrian traffic and disobeying the law as of 8 AM this morning. What can we do about stupid!

Pedestrians traffic at 8:00am? Who's going where and why?

Which square? Eight in the morning? There would only be feral cats running around. Everything's closed.

It is not safe for employees! No matter what you do you can not keep people at a proper distance. We are handling cash! No one should need a snack or a drink with everyone having coolers on their cart, but they must think it's safe not knowing who or what the employee has been in contact with. You can't fix stupid and there is plenty of it. Yesterday was my last day, can't take the stupidity any longer.

So sorry you had to work under these circumstances. I’m glad you posted, though. There seem to be many gullible people on this forum to their detriment. I think they hear what they want to believe and give undue credence to someone who holds himself out to be an expert. Please think for yourselves!

You can keep the proper distance, but I agree they should not be selling stuff or handling cash at the starter shacks

Did you report your concerns to management?

Everyday!!! Employees have gotten great support from our facility but they can only do so much. As of yesterday we had not heard a peep from those that are in charge of the golf division. Out of hand sanitizer and running low of all need supplies.

Did you play today ? Are there many others playing ? Do you usually play with a group of golfers you know or do you go out as a single ? Can you drive that sandtrap on hole number 8 of Egret ?

We have cones six feet from the starter window, some people walk around them and walk right up to the window. In most cases we can stop them but in some cases if your looking at the screen they are one to two feet away before you see them. It truly is not safe. Watch the movie "Contagion".

Has anyone read posts 232, 236 and 239? Do any of you care?
Pathetic.
