Thank you for all the replies, did not expect to get so many. In conclusion this is what we’re going to do, while I also try to reply some of the comments here.

Have you failed to factor in human fallibility to your cost-benefit analysis for this gym membership?

We agreed if anyone is going to be late, then they should notify in advance.

Three times? I’d switch trainers as they’re not respecting the time I’m paying them for. Five minutes late, thrice in a row? I wouldn’t go back. There’s plenty of trainers out there. 5 minutes is about 8% of an hour. If he’s just driving in at 5 past, it’s gonna be closer to 10 past before he’s actually training you. He’s not giving you 15% of the hour you have paid for, and if he does it 7 times, he’s stolen a whole hour of training from you Go elsewhere. If they don’t respect your time and money someone else will. Sounds like my hairstylist. I’m always her first client of the day, and I always end up sitting outside and waiting for her to get there. I get it, going to work sucks. She’s good and I like the location, so I don’t complain.

All valid points, but I’m going to give him another shot, just because he’s a great kid with a great attitude during sessions. He has a big focus on form which I really appreciate to avoid get injuries.

Warm up stretches.

I walk to the gym, its not too far, then walk up 3 floors of car parking to the gym’s back entrance (gym is in a mall and the main entrance only opens at 10.30am). Pretty warm by then! I guess that’s part of my frustration. Happy to say I went to the gym today and everything was set up and ready to go by the time I arrived.

He woke up late, won’t happen again etc etc. I’ve got 4 trainers with the gym because I do 6 days a week but only 1 guy is always late. It’s also distracting when we’re working out and he runs off to swich machines on in the middle of a rep. They always want me to commit 100+ hours each time I renew and paid upfront, so I guess being punctual is not too much to ask. In a way waking up at 6am everyday prepping for gym requires some discipline, I expect no less from the trainers.

He’ll improve for sure, until the English Premier League starts and Arsenal (his team) plays a late (+7) game on Sunday / Monday morning, then I’ll need to have a conversation with the gym manager again.

Now he just needs Putin and Ramzan to nominate him.

Yea just did a couple of minutes ago.

Yes, my bad I also failed to mention it happened 3 days in a row.

I pay by the hour, and I need to start sharp at 7 and finish at 8, then get ready for work by 9. If the gym is open at 7am, they should be in earlier and ready to go by 7am.

Ben-Gvir has been convicted eight times for offenses that include racism and supporting a terrorist organization. The army banned him from compulsory military service when he was a teen, deeming his views too extreme.

But it’s ok to be Minister of National Security…

Lasting and stable peace “that only Russia” can provide.

Then we’d be talking about “How Did Obesity Get So Much Worse in Gaza?”

Trying to imagine them asking this of Russia.

The tariffs were framed around unfair trade practices, intellectual property theft, and protecting American manufacturing—not improving labor conditions abroad.

What if this awful, awful dark period in our lives somehow gives the Vietnamese or Cambodian worker a better life because the US is no longer willing to buy goods from countries that exploit their workforce?

I don’t see how they can get a better life out of this, someone has to absorb the cost. In fact, many Southeast Asian countries saw trade increases as U.S. firms tried to move supply chains out of China.

What if American workers get a fair shake to do work for American consumers?

That’s the hope but for American workers to truly get a fair shake, tariffs need to be part of a larger plan. That means investing in domestic industries, enforcing labor standards, and making sure working people, not just corporations, benefit from any policy shifts.

That’s not fair to a lot of Jews that have nothing to do or don’t want this. This should solely be on Bibi and the ring-wing coalition, and the soldiers that are killing civilians for sport.

Why the fuck is Israel distributing the aid.

He’s got a tattoo, must be MS13!

For research purposes, which tracker did Meta use?

Except there is no cease fire, still fighting as of right now.

Japan’s official warning wasn’t triggered by a government audit or diplomatic scandal. It came because Ayako Iwatake saw social media posts of Japanese men boasting about buying sex from children and refused to look away.

Ayako Iwatake the real hero.
