Pet Peeves At The Pool

Hi, all!

 

After reading the gym pet peeves, I'd like to ask your side about pool behavior.

 

Being a common or public pool (which is usually the case), I hate it when:

 

While swimming laps or working out, others annoyingly jump into the pool along your path

Others horseplay and push each other into the pool while others are using it unmindful of possibly hitting others

Boisterous laughter

Crossing your lane at the wrong time (causing you to miss your stroke or swallow water)

Urinate in the pool (other seven announce it---time out, weewee lang ako)

 

Yours comments?

 

Regards

 

you are right, tagal na din di ako nag-llap sa pool....madalas sa sobrang dami ng chlorine , after ilang days lang puro skin dse na ang balat ko.... :thumbsdownsmiley:

in our small village we have a swimming pool for the homeowners... here are a few things that i have observed and absolutely hate:

 

1. not in proper swimming attire (i.e. maong shorts, long sleeved blouses)

2. those who feel like they own the place

3. those who stand in the pool and hate you because you splashed on them when you're trying to swim to the other side of the pool.

4. those who sit and stay at the steps of the pool and then get angry because you bumped into them while trying to get out of the pool.

5. basically people who do not have the manners to actually enjoy the benefits of swimming in a public pool

ARABOS AND BUMBAYS IN THE SWIMMING POOL!!!!

 

I remember one instance when a family of bumbays joined in sa swimming area pero for some reason nakipagbungangaan pa sa mga lifeguard. punta sila sa leisure pool area. Magsi swimming na sila - NA NAKAMAONG PANTS! the same clothes they were wearing pagdating sa pool. Believe me peeps as soon as they got to the water, nag alisan na ung ibang mga tao sa pool. it was like sila lang ang tao doon at may ari ng leisure area hanggang umuwi na ung mga leisure swimmers. buti na lang di sila nagpunta sa lap pool

that gf and bf are using the lap pool to do something fishy in the pool..since lap pools are most of the time empty..

 

is this in Club Manila East?

 

i always encounter pairs like these..

 

remember..if they are not swimmers, and they are couples and they are in the lap pool..something fishy is going on ..

 

Kasi nga "lap pool" daw, so doon sila naglalaplapan. Corny, I know, I know :D

In crowded lap pools, it's ok to share lanes, but please observe the following rules:

 

1) Ask the person(s) in the lane you are joining if you can share the lane. It's called common courtesy.

 

2) Swim on the right side of the lane (i.e., swim in a counterclockwise direction)

 

3) Make sure your swimming abilities are similar to the persons already in the lane you are joining. In other words, don't join the fast swimmers if you are a slow swimmer.

Let's see, everyone pees on the water.

Learner's of swimming should be coralled to one side of the pool.

Kids should be taught not to splash water to strangers.

don't eat or drink on the pool, if you want to do that, step out of the pool.

pool games , pool basketball, volleyball, should be done somewhere , were the pool is designated as a pool for sports.

Don't use the driving board as if it is yours, everybody else has a crack on that.
