I for one appreciate the info because I had been eying going to a public pool all summer but am not as brave as these guys against disgruntled parks and recreation workers. It can be intimidating if you have not tried to ever go in. The "rules" are not all easily accessed and the "workers" are not pleasantly forthcoming with the information, they act more like corrections officers than parks and recreation workers. Don't get me wrong I know why they need to be defensive when it comes to crowd control but a kind gesture goes a long way. I guess if I want exclusive treatment I should pay for exclusive facilities. I try to live by the old phrase "Do unto others as..." you know the rest but it's hard to do in the inner city sometimes. Score for the pool guys, in the end they won!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
