RV FEATURE
A good point …
It made me think about some of the more bizarre and funny rules I’ ve seen on our travels that I may have shown some ambivalence towards or thought were completely unnecessary.
For example, I once saw a sign that said no smoking in the amenities block. I remember thinking,“ Who in the right mind would think that was okay in the first place?”
Obviously, it happens enough to warrant putting up the sign.
Another sign I saw said the toilet brush was provided for a reason and to use it. Yes, people can be pigs at times, but how bad must the problem be if it has to be stated on a sign in a condescending tone?
A HARSH REALITY
I hate giving people or generations a label, so I won’ t do that here, but I think we all have to come to terms with the fact that entitlement is a growing issue with society in general. You could blame that on a lot of things, not the least of which would be the costs of living these days. Everyone is out to get as much for their dollar as they can, and there shouldn’ t be anything wrong with that. But when it makes a material impact on the lives and jobs of those who are in an industry to service us, well, perhaps we need to call out those attitudes.
The demands on caravan parks during these times are quite high. Patrons expect clean and modern amenities. They demand pleasant surroundings, useful features like pools and camp kitchens and reliable utilities. Kids have to be entertained. All these things cost money, and that puts pressure on daily rates.
Just like with their dogs, people need to take responsibility for their children.
