Rude gym attendant

Need to vent cause my feelings were pretty hurt. I went to sign up to the gym today cause I finally fell ready to get back into working out after a hellish postpartum (had several complications that’s are starting to get better finally) I didn’t get super dressed cause i have limited time to workout while my parents watch my baby since my husband caught my cold. After signing up, I had to take a picture. I know it’s protocol so I didn’t make a fuss about it but I did ask if I could do a picture next time but the guy said no. So again I didn’t ask again and I got ready for my picture. Then he followed by saying “yep. You have to take a picture even though you look pretty bad right now. (Long pause) kidding…” obviously I know look terrible. That’s why I asked if I could take it next time. I didn’t need him to point it out. I just had a baby 3.5 months ago so yes. I am still huge. I’m exhausted. Idk if he tried to make it better for himself by saying “you should have known you were going to have to take a picture.” Which yea. I realize I have to. It was just a yes or no question. Anyways, I’m here fighting through the tears during my workout now cause a random stranger decided to be “funny” and solidify the negative thoughts I have on my new body.

People don't think before they speak some times, it's just crazy!!

Report him to the manager and corporate. Gyms are NOT supposed to be discouraging in ANY kind of way. That defeats the purpose of them promoting wellness, on top of the fact that’s just highly disrespectful. Gym employees are supposed to be professional & make you feel welcome and comfortable, no matter what you look like. So sorry you experienced that. What a jerk!

Honestly I agree with the previous comment and would kindly say something to the manager. During PP We are overall more sensitive and hormones are all over the place so you can blame the hormones for feeling sensitive, regardless no one knows what anyone else is going through and truly that was a rude comment in any scenario. Also, I wouldn't take it seriously, he is no one in your life so WHO TF CARES what he thinks about you!!

i wouldve lost my shit tbh cause that is NOT ok, def report him

Rude as fuck!
