NY - Planet Fitness Employee flips out on Member

[Complex]

Dude just trying to make ends meet on a low-wage job, and the customer is being an A-hole.

I bet the customers were fat and just came to walk on the tread mill on 2.5 speed for 15 minutes.

I gym shame. A lot of times I'm wondering why the fuck are you wasting your time at the gym just to burn calories talking or standing around being in the way.

I guarantee you gyms don't need human staff as much as you assume they do. Customers or users only need the equipment and utilities.
In the very near future there won't be any "staff" at gyms, and certainly not staff that are trying to kick customers out before actual closing time and threatening them.

So you would trust muthafuckas who don't wash their hands after using the bathroom to clean up after themselves?

Gyms are always going to need staff for signing up new members and cleaning

Cool, I'm in the gym at least five days a week.

Gyms wouldn't have as many members if people weren't trying to sell them memberships. In addition to all the random people running to the desk asking for their missing phone or complaining about no paper towels in the dispenser.

I with young fella here. He just tryin to Do his job. Customer should just leave.

Fuck outta here. Young dude was tryna make his job mor

e convenient by inconveniencing the very customers who give him a job to have in the first place. Yall tweakin

 

[rrebelrrabbi]

Sounds like he was talking to a white man he gets a pass for it.. he has to clean up all them cac germs and air out that wet dog smell, youtowould close 45 mins early if you had to clean up behind them

CAC or not I have professionalism in any work that I do. I’m not closing shit early so I can dip early, FOH, and that has jack shit to do with whatever company o work for.

 

[DragonXJC]

I used to go to a chain gym. Same attitude, they would actually flicker the lights on/off 10 minutes before closing. It's a bunch of unprofessional kids working in them. My current gym has a dedicated cleaning team that shows up at closing.

Guarantee you if this is in NYC (which I assume it is), salty employee going to get fired THEN attempt to look for the customer on street timing.
The question is, will this be recorded and who will win?

That little gym guy should have done this instead. Dude took off is belt and beat that cac like a slave.

Niggas acting fly in the comments. What time do YOU leave work on Friday?

He didn’t beat dudes ass enough.

He’s already losing his job, after that he needed to beat the pure shit outta him.

His job is to take care of the cudtomer until the end of his shift.
Thats what he signed up for, and thats why hourly emploees have a work schedule and punch a clock.

Agreed. Closing the gym almost an hour early is NOT part of his job. Some folks making way to many excuses for the employee who prob wants to close extra early to fuck his chubby coworker. Chubby chasers united AF up in here


Lil man is not going to win this dispute against a customer with a membership and upper management.

Bro, i am not a rocket scientist by any means, i worked retail management, district and reguonal for 15 years, an hourly schedule is just that.
My store managers and assistant made schedules for the supervervisors and employees. If tge store close at 10, they are scheduled until 11 to clean up to recover the store.

Two of the most disrespectful actions

The spitting and the belt whipping

 

[arnoldwsimmons]

How come the Truth social post refers to him as “liberal employee”? I didn’t hear discussion of personal political beliefs

"Truth Social"...that's your answer.

 

[BGLR1212000]

I cussed the custodian out at my gym. He started fussing at me for not being out the locker room 5 minutes before closing. I told him knuckle up or dont say shit to me. I feel kinda bad about it, thats not usually how I talk to people. I was having a bad day.

No his job ain’t.
This is planet fitness not a luxury spa.
No one take care of you at a gym.

In any business if the people on staff say they are closing earlier you have to get the fuck out. Simple as that be a man and respect yourself and don’t at like a bitch.

It Home Depot said they closing earlier you gonna hang around shipping for nails?

Smh.

What Home Depot have you been to that ever said they were closing the door early? Just stop with this cap ass nonsense. This not a mom and pop store putting up a "We'll be back in an hour" sign. It's a corporate chain that's not allowing some dumbass that wants to leave early on Friday to kick customers out. That dumbass literally just cost PF a easy six figures settlement. Damn near every business has scheduled work hours after business hours to clean up and restock for the next day. That ain't the customer's problem.

 

[pookie]

Seems like the employee is just wrong!! If u guys close early at a certain time that should be posted!! Since it's not im going off the time that's posted!! I would record to, it will go well with my complaint!! Proly even my lawyer.. off emotional distress!!

45 minutes earlier than closing time to clean the gym?that's ya'll problem not the customers

All facts. Some people have busy lives and make an effort to make it to the gym. I get there when I can, normally 2-3 hours before closing. It’s timed so I can do what I need to do. If some dickhead at the counter closed 45 mins early “so he can clean” I’d be mad af.like hot hot. You don’t get to inconvenience the paying customer to convenience yourself. Fucking weirdo

I can't believe people are really siding with the employee, if a business has posted "business hours" then that's what they go by, I've never heard of a business closing early so they can be finished cleaning before the actual closing time. No gym is packed all day so the employees usually clean throughout the day, this dude just wanted to leave at the end of "business hours" which few employees even get to do

 

[BGLR1212000]

Yall dont realize these mfs rent space. The landlord tells you what time to open and what time to close. Usually if you open late or close early, your store gets a fine from the landlord.

So this one planet fitness location is the only one to close 45 mins early, only when dude is working as he said, and that’s logical to you?

 

[man-machine]

That’s Planet Fitness protocol.

I’m sure the customer was told way ahead of time.

That seems to be the policy at some locations. That would also explain why the employee was so upset. I've learned that often when folks record things they usually don't record the entire encounter or they leave shit out. Considering there was no one else in the gym, the customer seemed problematic. Ultimately, I blamed Planet Fitness MGMT. Hire more staff and give customers the 45 minutes back. I used to work out at a gym that closed at 11 pm and 9 PM on Fridays, and this small group of folks always went to the limit—getting in the shower at 5 minutes to closing. One dude was legendary with that shit. They turned the lights out on him once. That was at a quarter after 11. It never got to the level that this Planet Fitness situation did.

I'm not sure what youre arguing, but I aint for closing no gym early to clean, thats not how that works.

My dude.
The fact remains that business close early sometimes because ship happens.
I used Home Depot as an example only.
Don't get stuck on the actual establishment.
Sorry if I confused you.

However if someone with authority in the business, a worker in the uniform, so you aren't confused, tells you to get the fuck out of there then get the fuck out.

Don't whine like a woman saying how you have rights and the posted hours are blah blah blah.

Get the fuck out.

Maybe it is an the entitled white guy thought he was special or an habitual line stepper that thinks he above the rules..notice there were no other customers in the building..this was a Fri in ny and it was empty which means more likely everybody else know this but the the entitled cac.. I’m siding with the black guy get your European germ infested ass off the machine and get the fuck out.. Blackman got to wear a hazmat suit to clean after the germ infested cac and needs 45 mins to do so

Lol, Here you go with that passive aggressive can’t win the argument so let’s talk about a nigga manhood shit. If you didn’t have an actual example off what your saying then don’t name the establishment. If I show up at Home Depot , Walgreens or where ever 10mins before they close and they tell me to get out, I’m walking right around they goofy asses and getting exactly what I need in that 10mins. Imagine me cutting off a conversation with one of my customers on the phone cause my shift just ended? Nigga, I’d be working at Planet Fitness with that same bum ass nigga and his fat bitch within two weeks. Do better.

Customer doin too much. He is NOT the boss, he not in a position to tell worker what his job is. He should leave then take it up with management, or change gyms.

Let me break this down for you.
The employee has a scheduled shift, he clocks in and he clocks out per the company guidelines.
I am willing to bet nowhere on his schedule does it say close early and denounce the publicly posted hours because you want to leave early.
I guess you didnt hear when he said "my gym" or when he said "i dont care what time it close, what time do I close"
So "his gym", "his hours" and not a manager, supervisor, keyholder would be highly contradictive to him being just an employee.
Lets not even get started on him threatening a customer.
