Jim Burns is An Old Man Today

One of our senior citizen patrons took a dump in our rec center lap pool
last Tuesday morning. They were too embarassed to admit it was themself
(Jay, what's the proper way to word that?), but they did tell the
manager on duty as they were leaving that they thought there was
something in the pool.
It took over an hour-and-a-half to clean before we could allow patrons
back in.

Yuck. It happens.

BTW: As the husband of a certified pool operator, (Yes, in the State of
Iowa, you have to be CERTIFIED to have a stupid swimming pool. All this
means is we pay the State ANOTHER tax, but I digress...) I can tell you that
there is no way you could clean that pool adequately (or, at least,
lawfully) in that amount of time. Once fecal matter has been introduced,
you have to first drain, then shock, the pool.

Unless this is a plastic kiddie wading pool, you can't do that in anything
less than a day.

Don't ask me how I know this...
