The Day the FC Employees Grew Cojones
:rant:
So Ben tells me he is going to be late because he has a nail in his car tire. Sitting around waiting getting anxious to lift.
Ben gets there and sets up his Blackberry which can play music on speakers. A guy walks over in workout clothes and ask if thats a ringtone or what and I tell him its an MP3 player. He says u cant have it because its against the FC rules. Then I remember he works there. Gay, we have been listening to it for a while now. Isnt like we just started.
So Ben and I r a little annoyed but whatever. Then we start warming up. Get to 405 and motherfacker comes back again this time bitching about us "slammin" the weight. This guy was doing arms on a Monday. What that tells me is his main focus is arms because u dont start the week off with arms unless thats all u give a fack about.
They say they have told other guys who lift as much as us to set the weights down lightly and blah blah blah bullsh1t. Something about the guys said they would and suggested getting a weightlifting platform or some crap. Ok one thing NO ONE ELSE there deadlifts anywhere near as us. Im talking within a hundred pounds. Another thing they will never get something conducive to lifting heavy. I have been working out at this base for like 7 years now and never seen them do anything to suggest they would.
Then Ben starts ranting to others about how its crap and basically saying FC employees are lazy and r good for nothing lol. Which is too damn true. We "cant" use chalk because its too hard for them to clean up for inspections.
Dude tells me to "tell my boy to chill because he is 5 minutes away from being kicked out." I just walk off and then he comes over and pulls Ben aside and talks to him. Ben said the guy wasnt all that bad. I know it had a lot to do with Ben's car having a nail in it plus he isnt 1 to keep his mouth shut. I just duck my head down and shut up letting things boil inside hoping the idiot shuts up before I lose it.
