Blog to Lose

No matter the plan... we all Blog to Lose!

My bad gym experience pretty much ruined my Valentines Day...I was just bummed and felt bad about myself. I thought about a lot of different options of what to do and here is what I decided.

the gym i joined has three location within 10 miles of my house. The gym i went to yesterday (or the gym that houses the asshole) is 1 mile from my house ...although its the closest to where i live i see myself going to the one closer to my school most of the time between classes. I think I will only really go to the one by my house for early morning swims or classes.

With all that said I called to speak to the manager at my gym this morning to file a formal complaint.

I talked with the manager on duty and told her about my interaction. She seems really upset and asked for names and wanted me to tell her exactly what happened. She also said this wasn't the first complaint about the aggressiveness of a certain member of the staff trying to get people to hire a personal trainer. I told her that they really needed to do something because it was not OK for me to pay for a membership and be treated that way. I also told the manager that I don't want these men anywhere near me when I do go to the gym.

I thought about trying to get my money back and find a new place to work out...but I love the facility...hopefully it will get better.

Thanks for all your comments and words of encouragement.

Love
Maria

good. I am glad you called and complained. I think that you should continue going there. Stopping would give him too much power. His rude behavior is a reflection of him, not you. Your health is more important/powerful than his stupid comments. hang in there!
