Extremely mad at fellow RV-ers...

If you did this, then I'm mad at you too! Preaching to the choir? If so, then tough! You need to hear it from someone and I'm not going to be "political correct" either!

So.... you fellow RVers who are such germaphobiacs use disposable rubber gloves at dump stations because you are terrified to get your own sh** on you, you use disposable gloves. OK, that's fine if it's your preference. BUT BY GOLLY! DISPOSE OF THOSE GLOVES YOURSELF. NO ONE WANT TO PICK UP [COLOR=]YOUR STINKING, GERM INFESTED, NASTY
RUBBER GLOVES OFF THE GROUND! If you are the ones guilty of this, then SHAME, SHAME, SHAME on you. You're a selfish jerk!

Who do you think will pick up your SH** gloves when you toss them on the ground! YOU won't touch your own gloves because YOU feel they are germ infested after handling your own waste, but YOU expect someone else to pick them up! YOU are the biggest hypocrite in the campground if you did this.

Now, I'm not just preaching at one person, quite obvious this is becoming a trend at Indiana State Parks. Two week-ends in a row, at Mississawana State Park last week-end and this weekend at Whitewater State park.

Come-on FOLKS.... It's not just one person either, when there is a pile of your nasty disposable rubber gloves laying on the ground for others to have to step over and clean up, it's MORE than just one person! If you did this, you ARE a pig! I said, I'm not politically correct! But yes, I'm mad at YOU if you are the ones who do this!

I took the time to clean them up and dispose of them properly and then I raised all kinds of HE** with the campground host, the people at the check in shack house and the camp office. I'm also raising HE** with the State DNR. The MOST the DNR can do is leave a trash can there if morons and idiots are going to throw their germ infested, sh** infested, nasty hideous rubber gloves just tossed on the ground!

I'm mad! Mad at whoever is doing this! It's one thing to pick up cigarette buts and trash at the campsite, but there's just no excuse for this .... especially since the message (whoever) has sent that the germs from their OWN toilet is to dangerous for even themselves...... you expect someone else to pick it up! OMG!

I even sprayed down the concrete and cleaned up the entire area. And YES, I really pi$$ed off the guy behind me waiting for his turn as I picked and cleaned everything up. But you know.... I absolutely don't care what he thought. I did the right thing by cleaning up the mess! I only wish I had a photo before I started cleaning it up. I thought of photos too late.

  • I'm thinking if you saw this happen it wouldn't have gone well for the guilty party. I no I would have said something also.

    There is no such thing as "Idiot proof". They will work day and night to avoid working in general while blaming you for their difficulties.


    The George Costanza disease.
  • And even then, it will be too "difficult" for some to take that final step.

    But without a trash can conveniently placed, the gloves and trash will remain on the ground. People who need to wear gloves won't be willing to put those used gloves in their RV trash can.

  • There is no trash can in evidence. That's all it takes for human nature to take over. If it isn't incredibly easy for the general public to be courteous and civilized, they will quickly become feral. These are the kind of things park owners (and owners of all businesses actually) have to consider. You have to make everything idiot-proof unless you want the idiots to win.
  • Thankfully very rare up and down US 395 and US101/CA Hwy1.
