Faking It

Yesterday I was on a treadmill that faces out toward the parking lot. I see this pickup truck pull into the handicapped spot. The older guy is smoking. He sits there, finishes his cigarette, then gets out of the truck, swipes his key fob, then returns to his truck and leaves. I am certain he only swiped the fob so there would be a record of him at the gym.

I think this is a new species of gym person that I've discovered. Seldom seen because they don't actually walk through the door.


And yes, I knew the title of this thread would get more people to read my little discovery. :wink:

    That's so bizarre. I can't imagine how or why that would be necessary to do? I wonder what's in it for him!

    Maybe he's off to commit a crime and thinks the gym will be his alibi.

    I figured (because I had a lot of time on that treadmill) that he has a significant other or child that was nagging him to go workout. And there would be a record of him there. Or maybe he's having an affair and was working out an alibi.

    At least he walks to swipe the card instead of driving up? :wink:

    Yes, that's probably spot on. Or he's having an affair....
