So yesterday was one of the worst days I have ever had at work. I almost broke down. At my gym I have been given a small (tiny) management job. For the most part I just keep the fitness schedule straight and try to bring special programs to the gym. Yesterday we were suppose to have a mandatory meeting for all the personal trainers. Only one trainer came. Then one of the older trainers got a little angry with me, claiming that she didn’t know there was a meeting (but I’m sure I mentioned it to her plus I posted it in our office…in 2 places!). Those are just a couple of small things….but all the small things added up yesterday and it was more than overwhelming. I felt so disrespected and unappreciated. I don’t expect people to bow down to me, but I would like to be treated with the same respect I give them. Lately I have been questioning if I am even helpful in this position. I get along really well with my general manager and the membership counselors. But then there are the trainers that are older than me. They are nice women, but I have never felt like they give me any respect as their coordinator. Anyway….I’ll get over it.
