This woman had the audacity to use her personal lipstick to mark an "X" by all the pieces of equipment she felt entitled to at her local gym.

First of all, anyone who frequents the gym (myself not included) knows that there is proper etiquette when it comes to taking up too much space as well as hogging equipment and machines. Doing so becomes a hindrance to other folks trying to work out in peace, who also want the ability to use the tools at their disposal. 

Unless this person has some elite membership that otherwise allows her preferred access to certain pieces of equipment, she is just going to have to deal with the fact that she is not more entitled to materials than other paying members. Furthermore, this is not her own private gym. 

If you're that particular about how you work out and if you're unwilling to allow others to use certain machines, then you're going to need to purchase your own equipment. Otherwise, what gives you the right to have access to so many materials when you're really only supposed to use one machine at a time? Whatever happened to first-come, first-served?

  • Thankfully, the author was not intimidated by this lady when he caught her using her own unsanitary lipstick to “mark” her machines. He called her out on her behavior and even made sure that the owner of the gym knew about it.

    Even though this woman seemed to think she could walk around the gym like she owned the place herself, it would not be long before her behavior would lead to the actual owner revoking her membership. You can just imagine how she handled the news. Let's just say not well!

    This happened yesterday afternoon at gym: a woman was making her way to different pieces of equipment in the gym only she didn't sit to use any instead she used her lipstick to make X's on the equipment. I

  • When she returns she finds everything she had labeled occupied and she walks over to me as I'm training someone and says what's going on she reserved her spots. I told her

  • Upset_Confection... That's unbelievably gross. Her mouth has been all over the lipstick. She might as well have licked each piece of equipment.

  • JEWCEY. I love the subtle and immediate justice. It wasn't just the lipstick. It was the silent assignment you didn't realize you were given, as enforcer of her decree. She

  • didn't even ask if you agreed with her before deciding to walk away. She was sure you were ready to back her up, like you were just waiting around to serve her.

  • Shield95. some ppl treat the gym like their personal playground fr. bet she still gets mad if someone sweats on "her" bench

  • DTigar1. If she really wants to "mark" the equipment then she should just use said lipstick and kiss the equipment right after someone uses it and see how that goes.

  • GirlStiletto ⚫ Talk to your boos NOW. this is both entitled and unsanitary. She needs to get a firm talking to by the boss NOW so that she knows it will not be tolerated.
    via Goddessviking86
  • If I was the manager of the gym, she'd be kicked out for endangering the health of others (lipstick is not always sanitary, especially if it has been used recently) and for vandalizing the equipment.
    via Goddessviking86
  • Oranjez- ⚫ This is why I ONLY wipe equipment before I get on. I want to be clean, but I also dont want to perform any free service for these obvious subhumans. She might as well be licking all the equipment... that's dog level at best
