    @AnnPT77 I thought you were a Physical Therapist. PT, DPT.
    @claireychn074 I thought you were an Olympic Coach.
    It doesn't pop my balloon. I'll still think of you in that way, excellence in every area.

    So I finally decided to let him go and he turned on me and became so nasty that I don't think I've encountered language like that since grade school. He left a voice message on my phone saying that the parties will continue in the gym despite my warning that he is influencing residents to break the rules with the loud music, that nobody there likes me anyway and that I will be replaced soon so it doesn't matter.

    Respectfully, he has a professional reputation to protect. It's his livelihood. This world and the internet are a very small place. Cut him some slack. Head UP. I hope you find a compatible trainer.

    @AnnPT77 Your humility is a rock solid foundation. You help everyone.

    I would get rid of him and find another solution. Maybe a more expensive but more professional trainer twice a week instead of three times?

    Well, your instincts to cut him were correct. Sorry he was so unprofessional and that you had to deal with all this. Ugh.

    Leave, that trainer doesn’t care about his clients
