Monday after Christmas, 8:30 am. The place was empty, very nice attendant and plenty of parking. My daughter and I had about 3 weeks of laundry since where I live, our community washers were stolen. It's been years since I went to a laundry mat and I was new to this one. I found a row of empty washers, (some big ones) and loaded them up. The sticker price was surprising. 7.00 for the big machines! I think I spent about 50.00 doing laundry.
* The issue, a homeless looking guy came in, he walked all around the laundry several times. He did not have laundry at that point. He was looking in all the machines in use or with items still in them. He started questioning me about my loads and I explained that I was putting the money in to start them. He became IRATE. He started yelling at me, demanding I take my stuff out, that he wants that machine. He then refused to move for a little lady trying to get her laundry. He told both of us he didn't have to get out of her way. He kept getting closer to me and the machines I was using. I reported this to the attendant. He kept pacing back and forth in front of my items. He then started saying things about me and my laundry. He kept questioning how long i was going to take up the machines (there were so many machines open, but not the ones I was at). He kept confronting my daughter and I even when ignored. Attendant was told numerous times. She came over a few times to tell him to behave. He refused. He started stalking the machine that was almost done like he was going to grab my stuff. My daughter tried to reason with him and tell him that as soon as the machine was done WE/not HIM, would remove the clothes, He started yelling again, saying don't talk to him and looked as if he was going to hit her with his tree branch walking stick. We had to get the attendant again. She said she would call the police if he didn't stop, but she never did. She called her boss and said he was on his way. He never showed up. As I was getting the clothes out of the machine, he kept saying "bye bye," trying to block me so I couldn't get in the machine, trying to hit me with the cart and repeatedly yelling saying I was breaking the rules by not removing the clothes promptly. I was literally standing at the machine guarding it from him as it stopped and unloaded it immediately. Again, attendant came over told him to stop he didn't . We thought things were good until he had a whole room of driers and he literally went right next to me! He began mocking me, trying to hit me with the cart and more! Again, attendant watched but no action taken . It was clear this creep tolerated men but hated woman. It is also clear that the police should have been called and this man removed from this facility. It's an unsafe environment. read more
