The Pool Guy

While we were on vacation, our 24' round above ground pool motor stopped working probably because we had had so much rain that our pool was overflowing from the top and the 5 year old motor was being stressed more than it could handle.  After having no water circulation for about 3 days, a new motor was installed but the pool guy notice a crack on the top valve was leaking water and ordered a new valve that was installed yesterday.

I was home and noticed the pool guy walking out to his car around the deck and assuming he had finished called out to him to ask a few questions before he left.  When I got within 6 feet of him, he said, "You know you cannot wear a shirt like that out in public anymore," pointing to the T-shirt I was wearing.  I looked down at my T-shirt as best as I could and smiled as I looked back at him, saying, "isn't that crazy...  I had not thought much about it until you pointed it out."

We talked about how during the 8 years of the Obama Administration, none of this BLM stuff ever took place and there were numerous killings of black people by white cops...  but, now that Trump is President, it is all somehow his fault.

The pool guy said that during the 10 years he has worked with him father, the only people they have to worry about not paying their bills are their black clients that all their white clients, Hispanic clients, Asian clients, and Native American clients always pay their bill on or before their due dates...  but, if he mentions this to anyone, especially the black client that is not paying their bills on time, then he and his father are called RACISTS.
