Well-known member
At least our local.
Having a rather large amount of laundry to get done, and with all the damp/hot weather felt a quick trip to the local laundromat was better than hours worth of washing and waiting with the Miele.
First when one arrived the Hispanic young girl runs to the back to tell the "boss" that one is starting to wash after the offical cut off time (730PM). Pointed out that regardless of what their clock said both my watch and clocks at home read 725PM, as opposed to the one on the laundromat wall which said 740PM. Since the boss knows who we are, and made quick work of the complaint and went about my business.
Really nothing to report out of the ordinary about the washing and drying process, but noticed something that made one go "eeeeeeeeewwwwwww", when folding clean wash and putting it into laundry bags. The young Hispanic girl and the other worker were setting up loads of dropped off laundry to be started the next morning, however they dumped those dirty bag fulls of laundry into the same carts customers use to take their clean laundry out of the washers and dryers.
Maybe it is just Moi, but there is something very unsanitary about loading just washed laundry into bins where soiled laundry has been. Even at home my laundry baskets have only ever been used to cart clean laundry out of the washer or dryer. Think one is going to simply bite the bullet and purchase a larger washing machine to can totally avoid going to this laundromat in the future.
