Planet Fitness

Manager and some employees are much to sensitive about a weight dropping or if a person grunts. I totally understand the alarm, if this behavior is consistent. But when its "every time" a weight makes the slightest noise or person grunts. It becomes a bit irritating. After all this is a "gym". Today 6/8/2023 12:47 pm I called corporate to discuss this issue. But found out, that they are independently owned and I had to contact the owner. And I had to call that location obtain the information. At 12:51 I called the Good Hope location and spoke with the manger, who would not give me her boss's email address, unless I first told her my issue. I did just that, and after a short debate she gave me the email address. I did not get the opportunity to email her boss, before my shift ended and did as usual went directly to the gym. I arrived at about 2:50 pm the manger and another employee greeted me by telling me, that hey had attempted to have me barred from that location, (smiling) but it was upgraded to my membership being canceled. I asked why, and the employee stated, because I had cursed him out a few weeks prior, because he had confronted me about banging weights. (which never happened) He never approached me nor have I ever cursed at him or had a reason to curse at him. I then asked the manger, so the same day I call corporate, and then call you and ask for your boss's information you cancel my membership? She said, Yes, with a slight smile on her face and I left. For me, this is a clear class of "Retaliation.
