So here is the story. I had to do laundry today, alot of it actually. My builiding only has 5 small washers available in the laundry room, so sometimes its difficult to get a machine.

I went down there with about 2 loads, and 4 out the 5 machines were in use, but their cycles had completed. The clothes were just waiting to be tranferred to the dryers. I filled up the 1 empty washer with my stuff, hoping the owner of the other washers clothes would come down and remove them. So such luck, I waited a few minutes, nothing. So I got fed up and started moving this guys clothes to the dryer so I could wash mine.

He comes down halfway through, I explained what I was doing, and he was cool with it. But the whole time I was thinking if he "caught" me, it would be a huge issue with many reprecussions.

My question is that would you be pissed off if someone was doing the same thing I was? I had a bad experience with resulted in a huge yelling match over the same issue, and have been paranoid of doing it ever since. I want to know if this is common, or would you really even give a shit, and realize the guy was helping you out by saving you the time it would have taken you to transfer the clothes.
