Rarely, but it happens.
Since my status from student to employed student is changing soon, as I'll sign my agreement, I get a small salary from my efforts. Not much, but still, considerable change to my current situation, that is chronically broke.
So.. I thought, since I'll have some capital soon, I can do things, and the first thing I did was joined this gym as a member. I got a lot of experience from different gyms so I know what I like. Man, was I fooled this time.
I went to this place I've never been before, since for the last two years I've done on and very off type of training, so I thought now I'll have a chance to make it regular 3 to 4 times a week thing again. So the last place I have been in was so crappy, that I can't believe it. It was CHEAP though. Couldn't afford anything else.
So a little bling bling in my eyes I thought I'll get that membership to a _nice_ place, even if it costs me some. Well it did. Let's just say I paid very competitive price from the gym point of view, because they had pretty good campagn, that is, their marketing ****s where doing their job. By the way, people in marketing.. you should kill yourselves, you are the scum of the world.
OK so I was introduced to the place and I was fairly impressed. It looked good. Very Hollywood like. It's a bad sign, but I thought since we aren't in Hollywood, it doens't necessarily mean a thing.
So.. finally, I went there and started my thing. Damn was I disappointed. Filled with executive type *******s, none of who came to train, or at least seriously. No girls without makeup. Their 'working out clothes' must cost the same as a really nice suit. They look like idiots in them, they don't even train that well, it's a place for people to show up basically. It's extremely elitist. No wonder if was expensive as hell.
GOod thing I paid for the whole year instead of 3 months.. or 6 months. NIce to spend that money, almost worth of a laptop, just to go to a place, where I think you aren't allowed to sweat. No one was making any sound either. I like to make sound when I work out. I work out hard sometimes, it means I'll huff and puff. I don't go to gyms to show my face. I go there to work out.
You even need your own towel, to put on all equipment before you sit there or use anything. Yeah, hygiene is important for sure but jeesh...! It was also pretty obvious that there was no one else who takes training seriously, no fitness, bodybuilding or weightlifting people. Just cute little things, shaking their ass.
What a bad decision I made, I regret it. But I WILL use the 12 months, and if they start arguing if I'll give few grunting sounds, we're going to have to fight, screw the gym etiquette, these people don't know it, they came there to not sweat, more like listen to their iPods. And then I'll sue them for grabbing my gear.

Then again.. it's one of those things you can get used to I guess, and even learn to enjoy. It does look nice. It's really luxurious, so I'll be able to pamper myself.
