My building has 3 washers and dryers for about 200 units. So it's usually a fight for the machines. I think it's so inconsiderate of people to drop their stuff in the washers and then not come back for an hour, they know the machines take 25 minutes, there's a sign posted. Yes, things happen, but please... especially on weekends... when there's a line.
I usually go by the 5 minute rule, they get five minutes then their stuff goes on the table, I would never throw it on the floor, I would make sure that the table was relatively clean. (I have had my stuff come out of the dryer -- which means it was an hour and 1/2 later --when the person's stuff who I pulled out fo the washer finally comes down)
Since I am forgetful, laundry day, I'll take my bag of junk mail that's been collecting by the front door, with me to the laundry room, read the junk mail and dispose of it in the laundry room, and wait until it's done.
