Back on June 22nd, the city was forced to close the pool unexpectedly because of “staffing issues”. These issues stem from Stingy deGraffenreid’s refusal to pay lifeguards a normal wage. I’ve been on this story like stink on shit for a year now and predicted this would happen.
The pool has only been open 5 days a week this season instead of the normal six, because of this “staffing issue”.
Back on June 22nd I also said “I’ll bet you Finley’s left nut that this isn’t the last time this happens.“
Well, looks like Finley just lost his nut in a bet:
So nice of them to give everyone 48 hours notice before they close the pool two weeks early. They are SUPPOSED to close when school starts again – which is around August 12th or 13 – another two weeks from now.
So for those of you who had plans next week to get in a few more fun times at the pool with the kids – you’re shit out of luck. But that’s the way it works with government bureaucrats: costs go up and service goes down. Finley would have made an excellent postmaster general.
