This morning at the gym I had a minor issue and I'm not sure if I was right or wrong. It was a bit crowded which has some bearing on the story. I went from one exercise machine to another and sat down to do hamstring exercises. There is only one of those machines and there was no other machine available that I wanted.
So as I sit down this girl who was standing close by and babbling with 2 or 3 other chicas says something to me to the effect that she was using the machine. In English I replied that no, you weren't or I wouldn't have been able to sit down. I continued to exercise and finished it in about 5 minutes or so. I did hear her or another chica say something about Americano. It may not have been nice but I couldn't understand her.
So should I have done the gentlemenly thing and got up and gave her the machine? Obviously I didn't and I believe if you want to babble, then don't monopolize the machines. Thoughts?
