Rules exist for a reason, especially at private facilities.

The following story is about an employee who works in a gym.

In the gym, you need to be a member to use the facility’s pool, but she witnessed non-members trying to use their pool without paying.

Read the full story below for all the details.

The Gym is not a Community Center

I recently started working at a gym.

The gym requires a membership to use the facility.

We are located next to a city park.

The park has a splash pad.

This employee witnesses how some people without membership demand to use the pool.

For whatever reason, people think they can come in and use our swimming pool without a membership.

The gym does not have day passes.

Gym members may bring a guest three times a year.

The guest must pay a small fee to use the facility.

A woman even tried to bring in eight guests.

Today, I had a woman try to bring in eight guests without paying.

I explained that no, you can only bring in one guest. There is also a fee.

Her: “But I do it all the time at X location.”

X location is the community center and pool that anyone can pay $10 to use for the day.

Let’s check out the comments of other people on Reddit.

Finally, here’s a different perspective.

Gym pools are not meant to be for public use.
