@steve_cog Yeah I agree, and if your standards have changed I think you owe it to your employees to at least explain to them what your problem is and give them some time to meet your new expectations. My sister was recently fired for a similar reason (she was front desk at a salon, fired with...

@dawn16 OP is almost certainly American, where in most places it's lawful to fire somebody for pretty much any reason as long as it's not discriminatory against a legally protected class (i.e. race, gender).

@steve_cog I don't think this is it tbh, because based on what was said it seems like they would've thought it was fine if she was doing regular activities at another gym since they were interested if she did yoga, barre, Crossfit, and other stuff elsewhere, and were obviously disappointed...

@insearch4god Yikes. I think it's 100% reasonable for them to expect you to promote their company, but censoring any other fitness class seems ridiculous. Especially since these boutiques are so hyper-focused in their offerings, I sort of assumed most people aren't getting their exercise just...
