I find it interesting that some feel dumping your tanks needs to be a race? Like you get special reward points for getting it done as quickly as a NASCAR Pit Stop!
Really? I guess the quality of the work you do is not important but the speed that you do it in is?
I get the whole,, "Get it done and move on" thing, but if you just slow down and Do It Right. youd be less angry with everyone else around you!
For instance, I "Rinse" my black tank as i dump it, I don't take an extra step to rinse, it gets done as its "Flowing! Yeah maybe I get an extra black dump in there but whats the big deal? Its my time in the pit why not let me do what I gotta do?
Just because your the "Gold Star on the forehead" Camper doesn't make what your doing or the way you do things the "way it has to be done"!!
Doesn't bother me in the least if the camper in front of me decides he wants to open that black tank one last time to make sure its all gone.
I do kind of enjoy and snicker just a bit when I walk over to the side compartment and get out my "Rinse Hose" as my black tank is flowing!!
I often try to look back and see if the next guy has flat eye brows and is giving me that "Hairy Eye Ball" thing!
What do most of you do when the black tank is flowing out? yeah that's right,, you stare at the hose or that cool clear elbow going into the pit waiting for signs of that sausage samich you ate yesterday!
Well I am not a starer,, I am productive and hook up my whirly rinsing gadget!
Then by the time I turn on the faucet to charge the whirly thing, its time to close the black and open the grey! And while the grey is flowing I usually scan the crowd for some approval or dismay!
Now I gotta admit,, I have yet to have a broad chested camper come up to me and complain, but have read lots of responses from the keyboard tuff guys about moving me along!
But to my disappointment,,that has not occurred YET!
Must be an East Coast thing,, cause where I camp,, we all camp for relaxation not confrontation! And if you want a clean holding system,, then by all means CLEAN AWAY!
