We spent a week in Fort
Wilderness Camp Grounds in Disney World.
My son, his wife, and two kids
went with us and we pulled their camper behind our forty-foot RV.
That following Saturday the morning we left Fort Wilderness headed home.
It was a good twelve-hour
drive and my husband was doing all the driving.
We stopped at a campground near Dothan, Alabama, which was a little over halfway home.
After supper, the kids and I
went for a swim at the campground.
After the swim, the kids and I
changed clothes.
They walked down to the
washroom with me to do the laundry.
The washroom had two washing
machines and two dryers.
There was a woman in the
washroom and she was using both washing machines.
I made the comment that since
you are using both washing machines I will only dry my clothes.
I put my towels, and swim
suits into the stacked dryer.
The woman gave me an angry
look as I put money into the top dryer.
I soon realized that my cloths
were in the bottom dryer.
The woman was mumbling under
her breath.
I had to stop the running
dryer to put my wet clothes in the correct dryer.
By this time the woman was
even anger than before.
She said, “you have
contaminated both dryers and I am going to tell management.”
I said, “ how could I have contaminated the dryers with wet cloths?’
I said, “ how could I have contaminated the dryers with wet cloths?’
She said you did!
I said fine! I continued to
dry my clothes.
She left and went to the
office.
She came back from the office
ordering me to leave.
I looked at all the signs
& poster on the wall of the washroom and nowhere did it say she owned or controlled
it.
The grandkids saw I was not
backing down from this woman and my granddaughter left crying.
The dryers were located in the
back of the washroom and the woman was upfront standing in the doorway.
I was like a caged animal and
you do not tease a caged animal.
My granddaughter returned with
her dad.
My son said you do not need to
talk like that in front of my kids.
The woman said repeatedly, “Yawl
are just sorry people.”
My son and granddaughter went
back to the RV, but not me.
After my son left, the old woman got very ugly with me.
She looked at me and said, “nobody
tells me what in the hell to do!”
I laughed and looked at her
square in the eye and said, “ Lady nobody tells me what in the hell to do
either!”
The woman left and I finished
drying my clothes and walked back to the RV.
My son and husband walked to
the management office and they explained what happened.
Management said, “We have had
a lot of trouble with that woman.”
She had told management that I
had put dirty filthy towels in both dryers.
My husband said, “that woman
has never met my wife before today, and I bet she will not forget her either, for
when my wife thinks she is right she will not back down”.
Management laughed and said, "a dose of her own medicine is just what she needed.”
Now when I recall the incident I can laughter but at the time it happened I was very upset.
