And all the time I reject their call. Laughing Mad

You dont need to pay such an exhorbitant price to learn how to use machines.

That's because out of the one hour your friends were there, 15 mins were used preening in the mirror putting on make-up so to look 'pretty' before hitting the treadmill or bicycle. Then 15 mins started talking to that guy or other friend on the way out to the work floor. Then finally start that button up and walk instead of jog on that machine for 10 mins max. Then hit the water cooler for 10 mins and talk or observe other people somemore and the last 10 mins go back in and take a shower. Very effective workout indeed Laughing

They usually wont bother you if you lift some decent weight or look well built.

I no need to run .... why run ... the big size the better - if they touch him, or do not let him walk out - go court - call in the bunch of godzillas - that it he will sue him to pay him till he do not need to work !!!

Promoter for Cali? hmm..... I do admit i might sort of be doing some promotion for them.....cos i do not have any problems from them so far....touch wood.. Smile

Think about it.... don't you have problems with M1/starhub/singtel/banks/ credit card companies/hotels/tech products on and off, now and then because of some of their promotions etc.? Just have to be careful and whatever you deal with and whoever you deal with...

talk abt suing is easy....doing the act of suing is not so simple as talking

It's been resolved and I don't even need to go through CASE.

My friend knows the most senior manager there and she spoke to him. I also went there to speak with one of the trainers. After a few min, almost 20 of the trainers gathered at the 3rd floor of the gym for a discussion which I assume is regarding my case.

Then just got a message from my friend around 6pm that my case has been resolved. I don't have to pay anything.

Thanks everyone for your moral support. I really appreciate this.

Lucky u.
next time be affirm of ur decision.
let this be a lesson learnt.
