Curves

Awhile back, Lanie discussed Curves, an all women's gym that is famous for their 30 minute workout, in her blog. I'm was so proud of her for finally canceling her membership. http://helanis.blogspot.com/2006/01/bob-is-man.html I've been a member on and off for the last two years. I've never really found it to be a fantastic gym.

Anyway, let's get to the point. I receive a one free week pass for a friend to check it out. So, one morning we go together, and the woman is really not on planet Earth. Apparently, my friend has to make an appointment since it's her first time. So it's really awkward. On top on that, she couldn't say my friends' name correctly, and she kept on trying to say it. She was making a fool out of herself. I stay to workout, and my friend leaves. Ok, so fine, we decide to try again. I make an appointment for my friend, and we go again. This time, they need to take a whole body analysis of my friend that takes about 20 minutes. It was so frustrating. I just wanted to show my friend what Curves was like, I didn't want a whole production.

This is what I don't understand. Don't they realize that this is not the best way to boost their membership? Who wants to deal with that when they are trying to check out or join a gym. Just wanted to share the craziness of Curves.

Have a great shabbos!
