last time i took a shower at a homeless shelter:
you have to hand all your stuff to a guy at a window, he puts it in a bag, then you go to a medium sized room with several shower heads spraying towards the middle...
so you don't just get your shower, you get the water bouncing off a dozen naked homeless guys...
the water is a tepid, narrow, painful jet...
i caught scabies and athletes foot...
...
i've taken one other one at a shelter in another city and state and it was identical...
....
gym is way better, otherwise i'd rather take a bird bath in a random bathroom sink...
