Pet Peeve Of The Day

Evil

At my gym, there are only two water fountains for the entire top floor. It's a pretty big gym, so two water fountains is not nearly enough. Every time I go for a drink of water, there's always a line. But the most infuriating part is that only one of the fountains ever gets used!

Both fountains work fine actually. They are side by side, tucked into a little nook by the towels. One water fountain is at normal height for normal people. The other fountain is to its left and at a height for either midgets or people in wheelchairs. Everyone uses the "normal" fountain and no one ever uses the "short" fountain? Why? Because when you drink from it, of course you have to turn your head to the side so the water goes in your mouth. Why is this bad? Because when you turn your head to the side, your nose goes right into the armpit of whoever's drinking out of the "normal" fountain. UGH!
