Just another example of the iron rod ruling you have to contend with working for EK.

The thought of anyone doing anything good for the community and it has to be stamped on. So typical of the management in this place. Morons!!:ugh:

Correct me if I'm wrong, but the way I read this is that any visitors you have staying in your villa with you (including family) are not permitted to use the swimming pools, squash courts or tennis courts!

Charming people we work for, aren't they?!

Unfortunately this memo has come about due to the 'few' who have abused the privileges. For example, there have been abuses from people teaching tennis lessons for money on a public court and yes some people let their kids 'poop' in a public pool without taking precausions. We should try to educate these idiots and if unsuccessful, take actions to ban them from all the extra-curricular venues.

The accomodations dept doesn't exactly employ the brightest people and quite frankly, taking this blanket approach to the problem, solves the issues for them. They can't even manage to pick up their phones; should we expect any other response from them?

Obviously the company's response to this is deplorable, but come on!!! This issue has been brewing for a long time now and did anyone expect a different response?

Perhaps a residents association with some clout would be a good alternative.

The pool costs money to operate so they're just making sure peopole aren't stealing from them. Can't have non-EK people swimming in the pool and using it up.

This is the same DSO pools they don't put chlorine in (because it costs too much).

Regular cases of GIARDIA at DSO because people let their kids **** in the pool or wear dirty nappies and "someone" is too tight to pay for chlorine.

Well, if a certain lady hadn't blocked book the pool for several hours to 'teach' and improve the cash flow of her business, then you guys might not be in the ****. Kinda agree with Mensa on this one. Once again, the minority F**k it up for the majority. Like the tw*t last week at the Mina with his extended family and coolbox full of sarnies and beer. If I see you there again pulling that ****, I'll happily tell you where to shove your stubbies! Go to the f**king beach if you want to do that. Otherwise, pay the money and enjoy the sunbeds. Just don't spoil it for the rest of us, please!

Puff, not sure why semmer villas concerns you anyway, living out on the PALM.
