For those of you with fewer than 4 people in a lane at workout, congratulations, this rant does not apply to you. I hope.
For the rest of us, especially those who regularly have to share with 8 or more per lane, does your coach keep the wall cleared so everyone has an opportunity to finish swimming? Or does the wall get cluttered with the first two or three people who think it is necessary to hold onto the gutter with both hands and have both feet on the ledge? And are oblivious to the idea that there may be other swimmers behind them that want to get a time for the full distance of the pool? Yeah, me too.

Gaaaahhhhh!!! YES, major pet peeve :frustrated: :shakeshead: :rant3: :censor:
Coaches should to enforce it, but come on, we're all adults and should know that there are other people in the world! People who hog the wall are too self-absorbed to notice others stopping short or having to tread water after a tough set. Yeah, are you blind?! Do you see me??? :bitching:
