Some attendants enforce rules without considering exceptional cases.
If you were told you had to have a towel to sit on the lounge chairs at the pool, would you argue about how absurd the rule was, or would you go get a towel?
This man was flagged by a pool attendant.
He was not using a towel on the lounge chairs because he was fully clothed.
But the attendant said it’s not allowed, and he still has to use a towel.
So, he found a clever way to follow the rule exactly as written.
Read the full story below for all the details.
Apartment pool attendant said I need a towel to sit on the lounge chairs.
Note that I am fully clothed.
Must be a new rule as I’ve been here 4 years.
This man contested the rule.
I said the rule is for people who are in bathing suits, which is very obvious.
I said my sweatshirt is made of cotton and so are towels, so it’s just a towel that I’m wearing around me.
He said it doesn’t satisfy the rule.
The pool attendant told him there is no specific size for towels.
So, after a quick trip to my apartment, I asked him if it specifies what size the towel must be.
To which he replied there isn’t a size rule.
So I said, great!
And placed my 1 inch by 1 inch towel back into my pocket and sat back down.
LOL. That’s funny. Let’s find out what others have to say about this on Reddit.
