I canāt say that idea didnāt cross my mind but Iām better at capitalizing on otherās jerkiness than directly being a jerk.

I was traveling and used the pool several times. There was the standard notice about showering before getting in the pool or hot tub. Who actually follows that?
- Yes, I donāt want to add to the pool soup.
- No, Iām no germaphobe
- Iām floating on 42 pool noodles and not touching the water anyway

Iād worry more about the hot tub. Even though itās cranked up like 120Ā°, people get in it without showering and ā¦ letās just say that on closer inspection, the water almost certainly does not appear crystal clear.
I definitely shower after the pool or hot tub.

I think thexreason that they donāt want the pool to be someplace that people rinse their dirt and sweat from. One time is fine, 100 a day becomes an issue.
Yep for sure showering after. All that chlorine makes your skin itchy too.
I miss the social distancing abandoned protein shake bottle.

As Ghandi said, be the change.
Mebbe the shake bottle has evolved and mutated enough to develop feelings for you too!!! 
I was shopping somewhere that has a food court thing at the end where you order by kiosk. The person in front of me (letās call them A) goes to the open kiosk, starts to order, but thereās some issue and an employee comes over to help. In the meantime, the kiosk thatās back to back with the aforementioned one opens up, so I go there. Before I can touch the screen, A is apparently impatient with whatever is going on and goes to slide in but notices me there and returns to the original kiosk. As Iām ordering, Aās companion comes over to tell me off that A was next in line. I said A was being assisted by an employee.
You be the judge;
- A should have asked to go ahead if timing was that critical
- I should have deferred to A when they tried to go in front of me

āAā was not next in the wait line. She was in the service line.
Tough shit on her.
Oh, and fuck kiosks.

Iām confused.
Correct me if Iām wrong: A was actively being assisted by an employee at Kiosk 1 when you went to Kiosk 2?
And A thought you did something wrong???
I mean, assuming you were next in line behind A then of course you should take the open kiosk. If Kiosk 1 was malfunctioning and Kiosk 2 was Aās only option, A only has a claim on it AFTER itās made apparent to A and everyone else that Kiosk 2 is now the only option.
You donāt keep Kiosk 2 open and idle on the off chance that Kiosk 1 is busted.
And if youāve already started at Kiosk 2 when itās apparent that Kiosk 1 is no longer an option, then thatās just bad luck for A.
Correct. The employee came over and determined the issue was that Kiosk 1 was out of paper, so the employee went to get another roll. I assume that A got impatient waiting and went to jump in front of me. I was at Kiosk 2 already but had not yet started my order. There was about 6 feet between the front of the line and Kiosk 1, and Kiosk 2 was behind Kiosk 1, so a few more steps to walk around, so I passed A to get to Kiosk 2.
I wonder if Aās companion (who wasnāt in line with A when we were both waiting) urged A to go in front of me. I kind of ignored A when they came around to my side at Kiosk 2 and started my order. Unsure why Aās companion decided to walk over to tell me off. A was in the process of ordering at Kiosk 1 when I finished my order. A was still in the process of ordering when I grabbed my order and walked off.
Honestly if A had asked if I minded them going ahead of me Iād have deferred. They also could have scanned a QR code on an A-board right next to Kiosk 1 and ordered with their phone instead of the kiosk. Iād started to do that when Kiosk 2 opened.

Iād do a third poll optionā¦ once it was clear Aās kiosk had technical difficulties they retuened to the front of the line, but you werenāt in line, you were being serviced, so theyād go directly after you.
And if they complained about it then theyād go to the back of the line.

Iād also like to point out that the reason I noticed that you could scan a QR code to order was I saw A scanning it with their phone, so they knew there was an alternate means of ordering which couldve been utilized if waiting for the employee to fix Kiosk 1 was too much of a burden,

Iām way late on this, but as anyone with long hair should, I at least rinse in a shower to get my hair wet before putting it in my swim cap b/c it will arguably absorb less chlorine if pre-soaked.
