Original Comment I have been going to workout gyms since the early 90's. Due to financial situations I now face I had to dumb down my membership at join this rather below average club. There are no free weights, or even soap or shampoo in the showers. <br /> <br /> But worst of all is a situation I experienced the other day that totally has ruined them in my eyes. This event happened at the club in Morton Grove Illinois. I forgot to wipe one of the machines down after using it. This crazy woman, a patron, starts yelling and screaming at me for like five minutes because I forgot to wipe a machine down. It took forever for one of the workers to finally show up and get her to leave me alone. (She literally had me pinned in on a machine I was using. Being a guy in this day and age I didn't know how to respond. If it had been a guy freaking out on me like this we would have been stepping outside...that's how bad it was. I am someone who has not been in a fight in over 20 years.) Then the worker has the audacity to tell me to stay away from this woman. This woman came up to me. This was AFTER the woman screamed at me so loud that the whole club could hear. I was like &quot;SHE CAME UP TO ME AND WOULDN'T GO AWAY. YOU TELL ME TO LEAVE HER ALONE WHEN SHE HAS BEEN HARASSING ME?&quot; Shortly after this finally seemed to end the club manager comes up to me and says that it is their policy that we wipe the machines down. I seriously thought I was in a seinfeld episode. To say that I was the only one EVER to forget to wipe a machine down would be a bold faced lie. I wanted to punch this guy in the face. (I am a man of peace, so for me to get this mad takes a whole lot of people acting like idiots around me.)I asked him if this insane woman was the owner or ceo and he said no. So I said why are you bothering me with this junk again? What about her yelling so loudly at me that EVERYONE in the club could hear and nobody would do anything for me? He said he had talked to her as well about her behavior. Look I made a mistake in forgetting to wipe a stupid machine down, but to be publically humiliated not just by the patron, but by two planet fitness employees is beyond unacceptable. Then for me to be made to look like I am the bad guy here is beyond stupidity on their part. Forget them, forget this club. I plan on filing a complaint with their corporate headquarters.
