Default Swimming pool bathrooms

What's up with workers at Gilchrist pool who use the men's bathroom?
They are constantly stinking it up and have dirty workbooks not what I was expecting.Maybe the gate to the pool should be card activated in new pools until construction is finished.

Thought they had to have porta-potties on the job site. Surprised to hear this, but when you gotta you gotta go!

At "any" of the pools (neighborhood and sometimes the family ones) you might see workers using the bathrooms. Where would you have them "go"? If they're leaving them dirty..call Village Watch and report it. Actually I'm not sure who'd you'd call but that would be a place to start.

As was said, if you gotta go, you gotta go. Port-A-Potties are required for construction sites; yardworkers have the following choices -- use someone's home (if homeowner available and willing to let them in); use the side of a house or tree; use the pool bathrooms. My choice would be to allow them to use the pool bathrooms. It is a kindness and a slight inconvenience to us.

Stinking it up? It's a bathroom, that's what happens. Dirty workboots? Surely you're not going barefoot into a public restroom. I think that sometimes in the new neighborhoods, people get possessive of their neighborhood pool. I have heard stories of people getting indignant when someone from another village uses their pool, not yet understanding that we all can use all the pools. Be patient, construction will end eventually!

If the workers are tracking in dirt with their workboots, into a pool bathroom where the floors are wet from swimmers coming in wet (which is acceptable, I think, so people don't pee in the pool) that is a big problem.

Going to these pools is a vacation-like activity we pay for, and I don't like paying for an expensive resort hotel that has filthy bathroom floors in the restrooms or locker/dressing rooms. These pool bathrooms should be no different.

Maybe there should be a worker's service truck with a trailer hauling 2 port-pots that gets parked for a half hour and then moves on to another street nearby in construction zones.

What he said. Your pool is my pool and my pool is your pool and when ya gotta go, ya gotta go.

And IF you are working for a living and not living off me, you can poop in my pool potty.

Is this a folk song?

Yea. If the landscapers had to drive off TV to find a place to go, that would have to be added to the cost of keeping our lawns looking good and I am sure that would create a big stink. no pun intended.
