I feel your pain germaphobes, then wash my hands

I was working out at the Wellness Center today and I finally get what germaphobes are yelling about. There are so many people this time of year at most workout facilities. This will most likely change in about a month as people have done their obligatory "try to keep a resolution". This influx of people, most of whom have no idea how to act in the gym, creates a germtastic situation. I saw things today I wish never to see again...EVER!! Let's start at the beginning, a very good place to start, Machine etiquette. I don't know how why people think that after they are done, they can just up and leave and not wipe down machines. I mean I went to a machine and it was wet. WET! Like someone just came out of a Russian sweat lodge and decided the best way to dry off was to do Lat Pulls. Needless to say, I was dry heaving while running to the anti-bacterial soap. Secondly, Showers. I understand people need to take their clothes off to take a shower, but that does not mean you can't close the curtains to your shower stall. When I'm trying to find an open stall to take my shower, I don't need to see hands all over your hairy Sasquatch body. Another thing, why don't they have doors on shower stalls? Why do those in charge think that a piece of water resistant cloth that is not big enough to cover the entire opening is more than sufficient? Lastly, and I know many people have this complaint is people gallivanting about in the buff like they are home alone. After walking by all these men doing their Heisman poses and sitting bare-butt on the seat, all I want to do is throw up. Instead I'm trying to dry off and put my clothes on and get ready to leave without touching anything. I won't sit on the benches, lean against the lockers. I will say one thing, it does help ones sense of balance when you won't touch anything because you saw old bean's beans all over the place. Sorry for those who are reading this and are feeling queasy. I know this is not what you might have expected but I need to get it off my chest. So to all two of you who read this and got this far, Thanks!
