If these people aren’t working how the hell can they afford spending money every day?

People must apply like they do to any other private club. It would have a low number of clients so no waiting for equipment and there's always parking. Maybe even separate areas for women and men.
Charge $800/month. Something like that.
Would you consider applying to one of these gyms?

could tell their was some college kids mixed in there as well. Lots of 20-25 women and lots of men in the 23-35 range. Ofcourse the boomers were out in full force, but i usually expect them since they're retired. All benches to include the incline/decline were taken. All the free benches that I use for DB press were taken. All the cables were taken. Young guys were there in groups of 3 or 4 working out together. Numerous couples are there working out together.
I miss the days when most people were stuck at work and I could take advantage of an empty gym. those days are long gone

Strong coincidence. I went to the gym at 10am today (I always end the workday early on Fridays) and...mine was also packed, and I also just ended up leaving. It's normal for it to be crowded around that time, but it was worse than usual.
I've also wondered countless times "do none of these faygots have jobs?"

People are getting government handouts end of story or most are bunking with family, roommates, etc to make the rent. So they can work part time and try to enjoy the millionaire lifestyle.
WFH? Please, most fukers are getting laid off and requiring to be back in the office. Thinking that shiit will last is laughable.
And mirin that vette, basically the same one except mine is in silver.
Truthfully, I was going to make a similar thread days ago.
Tons of people everywhere eating out, sitting at starbucks happily talking. Walking around. Tons of fuking cars on the road.
I know it's all illusion for sure when you know people are in massive debt and probably like 5 months into the eviction phase.

No you retard everyone still works just the same amount. The difference is no one is wasting time staring at the clock in their cubicle counting down the minutes to be let out of their cage between the moments of actual work that have taken place during the day.
LMAO at anyone ever thinking this country needed people to work a true 8 hours every single day of the work week. You're in denial my man.

I'm shocked at how literally every drive through restaurant is SLAMMED at all hours of the day now. How are all these people eating fast food so often? Starbucks and chik fil A lines are around the block. My coworker brings his wife and kids to work almost daily and I kid you not, they order fast food via uberats/door dash THREE TIMES A DAY. McDonald's and chik fil A on a daily basis for these kids. How are people keeping this up?
