We’re Not On Waterboard With This Idea

I work at a public pool.

Customer: “I have a complaint.”

Me: “What’s wrong?”

Customer: “I think people should be wearing masks in the water.”

I laugh, thinking it’s a joke.

Customer: “I’m serious. I think you should be requiring masks in the water.”

Me: “Ma’am, I’m going to be honest with you. We don’t really want to waterboard our patrons. It would be a health hazard.”

Customer: “Well, I’m going to complain until something changes!”

Me: “Okay, have a nice day.”

I’m still baffled to this day and no one else has ever complained.
