I recently (when I say recently i meant this morning )went to enroll at a gym, some little location by my house called FITNESS 19. it's a little spot around here that is mostly inland base, i think every city has there thing .(so to speak_)
I had been really stoked about getting back into the grove of things and why not, i thought, it's small and really cheap, five bucks a month I mean that's beyond a great deal. Plus, I had a coupon , why not, who doesn't enjoy a good bargain. So i get ready, prepare ,my gym bag and out the door I go. I am pumped , thinking OK what machine will i work on for the next couple of minutes, blah , blah , blah. All mind gibberish. And so I arrive to my destination, i see a lot of cars and the atmosphere feels calm. AT this time the guy is waiting for me , he's all smiles, and quite talkative and ask me if I want to see the gym or sign up instead. What, of course I wanna see the place and see if I like it then Ill decide whether or not I can go for it. He then starts rambling on about all the machines , weights, etc. Then he points at the lockers, their right in the outer area of the gym, so basically everyone can see what you put in the locker. I don't really like that , and then the changing area is a big closet door.Literally , wow I thought that's different. And I had mention to him that I had kids and he said that they have a kids station , but never showed it to me.
As you can see there are a lot of things off, and this dude seems to just be in a rush and sign me up.(commission, i am thinking)
He pulls out the pricing book, and guess what it's cheap a month with a lock in fee of 100 dollars , and monthly fees are 19. I immediately declined gave him my reasons, and bluntly told him that it's way to expensive for such a tiny tiny gym, and the lockers, , the changing area. With all that said I got up said thank you , and he was butt hurt. Gave me a dirty look and slammed his pricing book.
Wow! as I walked out of the gym, really i can't believe how sensitive people can be when they don't get their way. I had never encountered someone like this in a long time. I can tell you that I am so disappointed and I can't ever go back there.
I can really see how many business lure you in and want to chew you out for a couple bucks, and if you refuse , the treat us differently. I guess it's true what they say , never judge a book by its cover.
