Hot Water --Whining about the Whiners

The pool was 85 degrees today. The motor on the exhaust fans is broken and won't be fixed until the pool closes in the summer. We can't open the outside doors on school days for safety reasons. School is still in session, so the gym teachers still have a say and frankly, are listened to more than an extra-curricular swim coach. SHUT UP ABOUT IT! :bitching: Constantly whining about the temperature of the water is not accomplishing anything. There is nothing anyone can do about it. The coach is constantly in contact with the custodians and the superintendent about the issue. SUCK IT UP OR STAY HOME. Look at the positives....1. They let us in at 5:15 AM 2. They do an amazing job of keeping the water crystal clear all the time! 3. We have the luxury of swimming long course, indoors, in April, in Pennsylvania! Phew. I feel better now. Thanks.

  • its only 85? man, what kind of story would we hear if the water hit 90 or 91 like it does here in the summer? Exactly. When I see complaints about water temp being 85, I just roll my eyes. Come to the metro Phoenix area in August, and you'll definitely see warmer. There have been times when the water has been 90F for workout. We swim outside, and they do use aerators overnight. But when the air temp gets up to 115+ during the day, and overnight lows are only 90 (if that low), well the water stays warm.
