revenge

I hereby vow some of the nastiest sort on 24 Hour Fitness. Let me tell you why. Thus far, my interactions with them have involved:

• Receiving daily phone calls from one "Lonny" for several days straight, even after I informed him I was not going to be able to even consider joining his gym for at least two weeks.
• Spending an hour trying to get away from a pushy prick who asked me a lot of personal questions and wrote down my answers, and then seemed personally offended when at the end of the hour I was still telling him the same thing I had been telling him at the beginning of the hour — i.e. that, yes, I really did want to try out his gym to see whether I liked it or not before I gave him any of my money.
  
• Receiving a phone call asking me if I wanted to join the gym the instant I clicked on anything on the 24 Hour Fitness website, even when I was already a member of the gym.
• Having to contact them three times (the third time because I was hung up on the second time) after cancelling my membership in order to actually get my money refunded.
• Being forced to listen to an entire Boyz II Men song while on hold the second time I called them for my refund, and an entire Michael Bolton song while on hold the third time I called them for my refund.

Ha! You thought this was just a list of petty complaints until you got to that last one, didn't you? Now you understand why I cannot rest until everyone involved with this venture has been sent to the hell where they belong.

Jesus. I hadn't actually realized those songs were still in existence. I mean, I guess I knew, but I didn't know, you know? I have to go puncture my eardrums now.
