Joined a new gym in December ... curious everyone's favorite gym pet peeves.

I'm the only one in the gym and turn on the big fan. After I've been on the treadmill about 5 minutes 3 others walk in and turn off the fan without asking. Another 5 minutes and they leave and don't turn it back on. Ignore me while I ask politely to turn it back on.
That and sweaty seats left as they are.
Gyms ironically seem to have some of the laziest people. The guy that goes and gets the free weight to use on the floor but is too lazy to return it. Or the guy too lazy to walk to the trash can to throw away a paper towel or water bottle.Ghostrider said:
Oh, I got several....
People that sit on equipment and talk to someone.
A holes that don't wipe their sweat
People that don't re-rack their weights
Slamming down weights when not needed
Idiots that grunt overly loud or scream to complete a lift
People that want to talk for an extended amount of time

6 is the one. We don't get that much at our gym but in the summer and on breaks it happens all the time.
Was hilarious last year when dude has his camera set up and one of the regulars walked over and told him "if you're going to film it at least be able to lift enough to impress someone" while he was live streaming lol.
Reracking is the other one. I actually don't mind moving the weights (I paid to move heavy stuff after all). However, when you leave them there it's a sign someone is using the equipment and now I have to search all over to see if it's in use or if you're just an inconsiderate ahole.
Our gym is pretty tight knit. We don't really have issues with guys who don't wipe stuff down, or people taking too much space (it's not big enough for that) and it's sort of a big family in a private gym so everyone pretty much knows everyone.
