One 100 free to go in set. Two open lanes.(no lane lines in pool) Noodler comes over to stand in my lane to talk with friend. Pool is set at 85 degrees cause all the noodlers say it is to cold otherwise. I complain to guard, am told, "well there are a lot more of them then there are lap swimmers" Wont be if they keep this up. UGH! :frustrated:
So, whether right or wrong, you'd rather pick a fight with neighbors, disrupt a water aerobics class, and potentially jeopardize your employment so your spouse can get a few extra minutes of sleep. I'm not sure this is a battle I'd be willing to undertake when there is a really really good option staring me right in the face. Even if you get everything you want it doesn't seem worth the potential price. Set your cell phone to vibrate alarm and put it on a wooden dresser beside you.
After reading all this, I feel fortunate to be able to swim around high noddlin' time for the most part.
Speedo puts his alarm on vibrate under his pillow to avoid waking up his wife and two young kids. Seems to work just fine. There's always some compromise required among spouses to ensure both get their exercise time. If Mr. Fort out-exercises me, a fairly common thing, I get irked. :)
