I recently visited Hartsfield Park Recreation Centre and had an incredibly disappointing encounter with one of their receptionists. From the moment I walked in, it was evident that the receptionist was more interested in enforcing her own biased rules than providing a welcoming atmosphere. Despite my interest in exploring various areas of the facility, I was rudely denied access to certain areas without any valid explanation. It was clear that the receptionist's discriminatory behavior influenced her decisions, as she only permitted me to enter the volleyball area, which was in a deplorable condition.
