| SUN LAKES LIFESTYLES | NOVEMBER 2017 | 5 What is happening at Sun Lakes Country Club? Is it the water or the air that is affecting us? We are yelling at each other, at the employees, at our visitors — we are ignoring traffic rules — going through stop signs, speeding up and down the streets — yelling and gesturing when someone confronts us! As a result, the Board of Directors had hearings to discipline our residents for violating our rules and behavior. They have taken away privileges on the golf courses, restricted use of the amenities and clubhouses and levied fines. Over the years my wife has taken me to task for being negative, being too direct or corrective. But this is a situation where being taken to task must take place. Who do you think you are to berate someone in the dining room because you thought you were being crossed or being neglected? First of all, they are not your servants, they are employees of our management company. When you have a complaint, register it with the supervision or tell your delegate, they will file it with the appropriate person. Golf course personnel are only enforcing the rules when you violate the dress code. That is your fault not theirs. File your complaint with management or the Board of Directors and ask for a rule change if you feel that strongly about it. If you are caught on the golf course in the twilight and you didn't sign in or pay to play, you are the offender. If you are upset because of slow play and hit into the foursome in front of you, you are going to be stopped and fined — you are the dangerous one on the course. While you are speeding down the streets and some pedestrian holds up their hands trying to slow you down, why are you swearing and gesturing at them? YOU are the one that is committing the violation. Almost every day as you are entering our complex through gate three, from Sun Lakes Boulevard some driver on Country Club Drive or Riviera Avenue turns in front of you and almost (or does) causes an accident. Then they have the audacity to get very irate and yell or gesture at you. Yes, all the above are our nice, meek and docile retirees at Sun Lakes enjoying their twilight years in tranquility. Then again, maybe it is only our visitors and vendors who do these things. Whoever it is, knock it off — someone is going to get hurt or killed.
