Some crazy lady just yelled at me at the gym

My buddy called. I picked up for 5 mins... then she started yelling about I can’t talk at the gym.

I’m like what?

She’s like ...there’s no phone calls at the gym.

I’m like find me a sign and I’ll stop.

She’s like I came to the gym to listen to music and work our not hear you on the phone...

This was less than 5 mins... she was yelling. It wasn’t a calm convo...


Man what is wrong with people these days.




I went to the managers office they told me to ignore the crazy. I go back down. This lady. Walks by and says what are you looking at.


She’s like 60-65 years old maybe... just wow.

Man. This gym sucks. Got crazy people


Last year some dude died next to me after his leg presses
Last year the older people trainer (55 years old) yelled at me for throwing weights and making noise when I was putting the barbell back on squat rack.

Today some random crazy old lady screams at me. Wtf...

Now that your feelings are hurt I hope you aren't using this as an excuse to stop your weight loss regimen at the gym.

We're all pulling for you.

Phone and all.

My gym is a no calls zone. Answer, say hang on a second, and leave the area.
It’s nice.
I think taking calls in the gym is rude regardless of the gym rules. People are there to relax, stretch, concentrate on their training, etc. People having long conversations is an unnecessary distraction.
YMMV.

People often mistake the concept of rules and manners the way they do with laws and morals.

You don't need posted signs to dictate manners and you don't need laws to manage morals.

Do you really think it's appropriate for people to be yapping on the phone in the gym, in a restaurant, etc. and 5 minutes is a loooong time.

Well, maybe she was working out and then spots some young beef cake throwing weights around and had she been 50 years younger she would have made a play to take him home but now she can’t. This then reminds her that the grim reaper is at her door and she takes out the frustration of this existential crisis on the very man she was longing for when he answers his phone.


Or...she’s just bat sh*t crazy....probably that.

I’m not a planet fitness guy either, would that matter? Isn’t everyone going to the gym to focus on their health and wellness? Anyway, I’m sorry if you don’t believe that having phone conversations in the gym isn’t rude. But that’s ok as I wouldn’t join your gym and you obviously wouldn’t join mine. Sounds like you’re at the right place.
Here’s to becoming “RippedNinja” in 2020.

I'm a gym regular and I find talking on the phone irritating. But that's not give any one permission to go and yell at you - yes, that's rude.
