- And her response is, "Where is that (beep)?"
(scary music)
My name is Jeremy.
- My name's Shiquita.
- My name's Dewayne McDowell.
- I am Troy.
- I'm a gym employee.
- And this is my gym horror story.
In the gym world,
there could be some scandals let's say.
I'm at the front desk,
and this lady walks in,
and as she walks in,
I'm grabbing her scan tag and saying,
"Hello, welcome to the gym."
And her response is, "Where is that (beep)?"
I didn't know what to say at that point.
I was like, "I don't know who you're talking about."
She starts screaming at me like,
"Where is she, I wanna know where she is.
"I know she's here."
I go get my manager,
tell him to come in and handle the situation.
What we found out was,
my coworker was sleeping with her husband.
How she found out,
was she went to the doctor,
because she was feeling sick,
and she didn't know what was going on.
And the doctors did a STD check,
and found out that she had chlamydia.
She goes to her husband,
and he gives in,
tells her who it was,
tells her it wasn't his fault,
she seduced him.
And then she comes to the gym
ready to kill my coworker.
But instead, I took the brute of it.
And that was horrifying.
- So, I just transferred from my original gym
to the gym out here in L.A.
Getting used to personalities is a struggle here.
I'm just standing there at the computer
talking to my coworker,
and the next thing you know my manager walks up.
He's on the computer typing something in,
few minutes go by,
and there's a lady behind the counter in a swimsuit,
and she's yelling at him.
"You're racist, you're disrespectful."
So then she goes back to the swimming area,
or the locker room.
The reason why my manager was called back there,
was she was in the hot tub
and people were talking.
There were other people who knew each other there,
and they were having a conversation.
And she just flipped,
and started telling them to shut up,
and stop flirting with her.
And yelling at them.
And then someone came up to her
and tried to tell her like,
"Hey, you're making people uncomfortable."
Then she got in his face,
and got out the pool and was like stepping on his foot,
pointing at him,
getting in his face.
And then they came to tell the manager.
And by the time he gets back there,
she's just like swimming in the lanes,
minding her own business.
But he kneels down and like tries to talk to her,
and she's like ignoring him.
He keeps trying to get her attention,
and then finally she goes, "I don't talk to black people.
"You're a strange man, I don't talk to you."
She just keeps swimming.
He literally didn't say much,
he was like, "Okay, well you're causing a disturbance,
"but if you don't wanna talk to me,
"then I'll just get your account,
"and we'll go put it in your notes for your account."
We have this system where if we get any bad members,
or issues from any members,
we'll put notes in.
I am a little nosy,
so I go back to her account
and see that all the way back to 2018,
she has notes.
This incident, and many others
are noted on her account.
She's just nuts,
she just goes off on people.
And we've been fighting to get this woman
revoked from our gym ever since.
And this was like two or three months ago.
But, every time she's comes in there,
she's rude to somebody.
We just keeping more and more notes,
and we're still having a hard time
getting her revoked from the gym,
even though she treats members badly,
she treats employees badly,
and makes everybody uncomfortable,
yet she's still allowed to come.
And that was my gym employee horror story.
- The story that I have is about
a story of about a guy getting killed
at the gym that I work at,
got killed in the locker room by the police officers.
The guy came in a couple days before,
he grabbed a girl's butt,
got his membership revoked.
Came back a couple days later with a attitude,
said he knocked out a security guard downstairs,
came inside the gym.
So, we called the police
to get him to escort him out of the gym.
He didn't want to follow orders,
and he got into like a wrestling match
with the police officers.
And they shot him,
unfortunately he's not alive no more.
That's the story,
but it gets worst because the backlash
that we received after the incident transpired.
The names that we get called
and how we get treated by different people
that come to the club looking for trouble.
And that's the horrifying part,
is that when you get blamed for something
that was not your fault,
when your friends get blamed for something
that wasn't they fault.
We just follow orders,
and that situation happened.
Now we posted up on different social media accounts
all over because the company that we work for.
And like I say,
it aint have nothing to do with us,
but everybody mad at us like we pulled the trigger.
And that's the part that's horrifying,
and that's the part that sucks.
Because it seems like don't nobody care
about the other side.
And at the end of the day,
we just did what we had to do,
and that was call the police.
Yeah, and that's my gym horror story man.
- So there was a member at one of our locations
who tried to get one of the coaches,
she wasn't having it,
wasn't feeling him like that.
Yeah he was trying to go on little dates
or whatever with her and stuff.
And she was like, "No."
And he just kept trying to progressively
ask for for more,
try to like date her and stuff.
And she was like, "Not into it."
So he got his feelings hurt,
so what we thought was a good idea,
was he left a negative Yelp review about her,
and he said that, "This coach sleeps with married men."
All this stuff,
just really putting all this business,
which wasn't true.
And so, she called me like in tears like,
"I can't believe this dude."
And then he put on his name on the Yelp review,
that his name was Robert Barker.
And so luckily the owner,
he had some sort of insurance with Yelp,
where if you could prove it was a fake review,
they removed it.
But it took like a week,
and it was just up there,
and it was on the Facebook one too.
So, this poor girl had all this stuff up there,
all these lies about her for a week,
and had to deal with that.
All because of one man had his feelings hurt.
And you know you get people every now and again
that will leave...
If they don't get their way or whatever,
they'll leave like a negative comment on Yelp,
because I don't know.
I don't understand that whole mentality.
But yeah, that was definitely the worst one
that I saw.
I really wanted to fight that dude too,
when I saw that.
But, he disappeared after that.
Not because of me.
(laughing)
And that's my horror story, so.
If somebody says they don't wanna date you,
just move on.
You don't gotta leave a negative review.
(upbeat review)
