Today, while I was lifeguarding a swim meet with over 100 patrons, a duck paid a visit to our pool. He sat down and a brown cloud surfaced in the water. He immediately flew off. My manager then made me put goggles on and scoop out the poop while everyone watched. FML

Honestly it could have been much worse, better a duck than a 5 (or 75) year olds poop..

Why goggles and not gloves?? I hope you didn't pick it up with your bare hands. My sympathies with you, op.

A pool with diarrhea or otherwise liquid feces has to be closed for at least 24 hours. Your boss is an idiot and probably shouldn't be in charge of a pool. Source: am a lifeguard

You are correct. Even if chemicals are upped the pool has the be closed. - also lifeguard.

I work at a pool as a life guard also. we have been open for about the weeks. we had an entire week where some one pooped in the pool. Guess who fished it out most of the time.... Me. so get over it.

"So get over it." Geez, do you have something against OP or something? Sure you've had to deal with the same situation many times, but was it not still a bad thing to deal with? No need to be so rude...

Isn't that illegal? To make a person go in and clean it? That duck could have had a disease, and you could have gotten very sick from it.

Duck poop honestly isn't that bad. Dog/human poop on the other hand....
