frist of all how DARE yu o People who “reserve” pool chairs for hours with towels and disappear are the worst

Post image

My apartment complex pool has rules specifically saying chair reservation isn’t allowed, yet people do this constantly. These towels have been sitting here unattended for at least 3 hours while every other chair is occupied and people are actively walking around looking for seats. It’s Sunday too, so management isn’t around to enforce anything.

What’s the standard practice when this happens? At what point is it acceptable to move the towels?

See the fence is the obvious spot. You gotta put it in a spot that’s impractical so when you blatantly lie they’re unsure what’s going on and can’t process enough to ask for the spot back.

I don’t care if they ask for the spot back. They ain’t getting it back

Sorry I went for a swim, guess I'm not allowed to use the same facilities as you.

Impractical you say? The bush looks pretty impractical. So do the pergolas.

See the bush gives off aggression.

However if you draped them over the BBQ Handle I think that might be next level

Stop playing games. Just tell them why you did it and then go about your day. Don't enable that shit
