Laundry area are provided here in my apartment complex like most apartments do. Here we have four dryers and four washers for each apartment block, which consists of 36 units. There is hardly any problems when it comes to availability of the dryers or washers since the laundry area is open from 8am to 10pm, 7 days a week. We are given keys to the laundry room as it is locked to prevent outsiders from using it. The washers cost USD1.25 while the dryers cost USD1 and they are most of the time quite efficient. However, I have clothes from Malaysia which tend to shrink in the dryer under the hot cycle.
Yesterday, I was in the laundry room sometime in the mid-afternoon loading my clothes into the dryer. I was loading my dark colored clothes into one while my light colored clothes into another. There is two other washers and one of them seems to be occupied as the cover is closed. Since it was closed and there are other washers available, it didn't bother looking into it as it has nothing to do with me. So while I was loading my clothes, this aunty walked into the room, opened the closed washer, picked up a pair of shoes and walked out. The moment I saw the shoe, I was stunned. She acted like there wasn't anyone in the room. Did not even look at me and say hi, which is very common here in Michigan, especially from the Americans.
I've heard of friends talking about washing your shoe in the laundry washer but I've never known people who actually does it. How disgusting is that??? I'm gonna make a note to myself never to wash my clothes in that particular washer anymore. Thank God she didn't put it into the dryer, which will be worse! But then again, she might have done that before or have used other washers before too. Ewwwwww!!! How sick can these people be? So inconsiderate! I wonder how dirty is her shoe..urhg! i don't even want to think about that.
Please please please do not ever wash your shoe in the washer, unless it is specified to be for shoes only. How hard can it be to wash your shoe in the bath tub or in a pail?
