Recently, almost every day I go to the gym at lunch I end up complaining about a female attendant in the men’s locker room.
It’s frustrating! No. It’s way past that. It’s rocket blast to Mars more irritating!
There are other men who rush in, change like I do, exercise, change back, and hurry to get back to work during the lunch hour. It’s a cattle call time.

He was in the locker room when I got there talking to someone in the next section over. He acted as if he was the right hand mercenary for a mafia Godfather, but I’m not sure he’d be over 5’2” even with a pair of stiletto high heels on!
