The complex where I live now has a rooftop pool and I have an issue with it.
The pool is not what one might consider to be a “normal” pool. This pool, you see, is on the 22nd floor, and, due to a number of reasons, is only three feet deep. I guess the builder realized that the buildings structure could only handle so much water weight and thus made the executive decision to only make the pool accessible to kids 8 and under. But this is not the issue that I am talking about.
My issue deals with the fact that there is a lifeguard on duty at all times at this pool. This lifeguard (paid for, by the way, by myself and the other owners) sits in her lifeguard chair and makes sure that no one drowns in the glorified swimming pool (wearing her lifeguard bikini uniform, no less).
Her's is blue, but you get the idea
Now how silly is this?
I went up to the pool deck around 11:30 this morning to get some fresh air and relax for a few minutes after going on a 4 mile run. Needless to say, I was drenched in sweat. I get up to the pool deck and, besides the lifeguard, there was no one else up there. So basically I was paying this girl to tan herself(on the bright side, paying her to tan was cheaper then the time my buddy Jeff and I paid to tan ourselves at Solar Dimensions…a story for another post). Not only that, but her presence made me feel completly uncomfortable, especially since I was so sweaty, and I quickly left the deck to go shower. Not very relaxing!
The prior few times I had gone to the pool, I never had this issue. The pool, you see, didn’t “open” until Memorial Day, and therefore there wasn’t a lifeguard on duty before then. That didn’t stop me, or the other owners and guests, from hanging out at the pool. The building itself, in fact, had a pool party in April. Why do we need a lifeguard in the Summer months but not the rest of the year?
This all reminds me of the SNL skit from 10 years ago where Jim Carrey is the lifeguard guarding a hot tub.
As you can see, it is very uncomfortable!
