There was about 2 weeks that we had repairing in our home and I had to go about 30 mins late to my gym. I thought that I can copensate these 30 mins with working with the treadmill and static bike that is there and I sometimes saw ppl use them after their aerobic classes. So after I finished my 300 mins from 1 hour of aerobic class, for these 2 weeks I used treadmill and static bike to compensate my 30 mins late. It's actually not a big gym and I saw so many others who used these without having to register for them and I asked a gal and she said we use them they don't usually say anything if you work with these machines after your class.
Well today, after our aerobic class I used the treadmill for a short time and the I went to register for the next month as my classes for this month got finished. But this time the registrant asked me if I use the gym body-building machines too, and I told her frankly that only on these 2 weeks as I came late I used them as I thought that we can, and she said no even if you come late, to use the machines you should register for them separately. Well I didn't know that and I told her cause the other gyms that I went to before allowed using body-building machines for a while after aerobic without having to register for them separately. So I said ok i didn't know that and asked the fee for using machines. After I wanted to get my card back(which I handed to her to put the last tick for this month of my gym), I saw that she has marked two ticks by mistake, one for this last session that and another one for my next session which I just registered for. Then suddenly our own aerobic teacher also came and sat there infront of the registrant. I told the register that she has put two marks and so she removed the extra tick that she had put on my card by mistake. Well so I was about to leave the gym and close the door that I heard the registrant is telling our aerobic teacher that "she has registered for aerobic but she uses the machines too!!", well I was almost out of the gym and couldn't turn back at that time to explain for our aerobic teacher also :(. But I thought that this can make not a good image in our teacher's view, and also at the same time our repair in our home has also finished so I wont be late at the class anymore.
But I'm already abit upset because usually our teacher doesn't sit there infront of the registrant and this time I think she heard and thought bad about it...I was coming out when the registrant was telling our teacher:(....I didn't want that happen....
If you were in my shoes what would you tell to yourself in this case, with knowing that I didn't know and I wont be late and won't use the machines also anymore....I would be ontime and will come back after our aerobic class from now....But I still don't have a good feeling of that our teacher was told about this there, and I don't think I would find anyother chance to tell her that I didn't know that, though maybe telling her later wouldn't also help.....
Just what would you think to yourself to come out of this bad feeling ...I feel a bit upset now....I think it was not needed to be told to our teacher but the registrant told that because I mentioned the extra tick that she had put by mistake and our teacher was there too....So what would you tell your self to come out of this bad feeling if you were in this case with knowing them all? :(
