So my (34F) father (73M) has been having a tough time medically for some time and I had to pick his dirty laundry up from his apartment to take to the laundromat, now the 2nd or 3rd time doing this. When i went to pick it up the lady asked me if the clothes belonged to a patient because they were really badly soiled (#1 and even some #2). I truly didnt know when i had dropped them off otherwise honestly i would have just thrown them away but i didnt think to check plus my dad never said anything. I was soooo embarassed when the lady said that to me that i told her to hold on while i went to scramble for cash in my car to give to her for the lack of disclosure and what was obviously a pretty disgusting moment for them. Whats worse is this laundromat is right next to my job so i literally will see this woman almost every day. Luckily she was grateful for the generous tip but im never dropping anything there to wash againnnnnn
TL;DR: my elderly dad gave me his dirty laundry to wash but forgot to disclose how dirty they actually were and the laundromat attendant made sure to inform me upon pick up
