I've never taken anyone's laundry out myself, if my Super is in the laundry room I will complain to her and she'll take it out no problem. I think the only reason I wont take it out myself is because I would not want them to walk in while I was doing it - uncomfortable! I try to make sure I am always in the laundry room a few minutes before mine is done to prevent this, but slip up every once in a while.

I also get mad at the people that I know are home all day and not working, but decide to do their laundry during the week, at night...frustrates me to no end!

I can see the steel plants from my balcony, sometimes I get lost in the flames and clouds of smoke

I effing hated doing the laundry when I was in the army! There was only two machines, that were being used by about 50 people, and the driers would only work about half of the time.
Because there were so many using the machines, you had to stay in the room waiting the entire time. If you only went to the toilet for five minutes, someone would stop your machine and take all your soaking wet clothes out. Some times you ended up using the whole damn day doing laundry, and it had to be done during the weekend cause you didn't have enough time any other day.

It was like this morbid survival-of-the-fittest situation that I've never experienced before or after.

The worst part is that people stole like crazy. If a guy had lost, say, an army jacket, he would go to the laundry room and steal a jacket so he wouldn't have to pay for it. And of course the army didn't care if it was your jacket that was stolen. You had to pay to have it replaced, and that was that.

Ah, writing this I know I'll get nightmares next time I'm sleeping.

We never had our own washer/dryer when I was growing up. And, we always lived in apartments. This was "back in the day" when the majority of apartments were not fitted with washer dryer hookups so you had no choice but to use the facilities provided by the apt. or you could go to the local laundromat.

My poor mother spent endless hours running back and forth to the "wash house" so that our laundry didn't get piled on the filthy table or even worse, stolen. I never really appreciated the effort and time she spent taking care of us in that way. When we finally moved into a place that had hook ups, I remember she almost cried. What a luxury to be able to do laundry on her own time as opposed to when machines were available.

Thank you for this thread. I miss my mom terribly and I took for-granted so many things she did for me. Rekindling this small and silly memory reminded me of how much she truly loved me.

Back in the day...lol...I use to use the washer I had, but hung the clothes outside to dry, no dryer, even in the winter. I would call it freeze drying. I learned that I could dry outside in the winter from my ex's gramma Pearl from the hills in Kentucky. We were in the army and all my neighbors started doing it too.
Shoot, there was a period that I had neither a washer or dryer, so I would put my toddler's clothes in the bathtub, put soap in ,and then stand in it swishing my feet and legs around like a washer would. Then I would have to wring them out and hang them outside in the cold. Also, my kids have no idea I had to do these things, and they do not appreciate it at all, even those they have heard the stories.
