LA Fitness closes down all until 1st of April (effective today @8pm) with no membership reimbursement or salary to the worker for lost hours.

As the title implies LA Fitness closes down their Houston branches to protect the people, which in itself is a good idea considering that the gym is a cesspool of heavy breathing people (I’m writing from the treadmill so no hate l, just facts).

While this as said is essentially a good idea it affects all the people currently working at LA who will not see any pay throughout these two weeks.

Further the members are not reimbursed the lost time on their membership.

LA can’t claim force majure so their case for doing this is weak at best. So if anyone wanted they could easily make this into class action as far as I can tell.

I personally would rather see the not reimbursed membership fees, which is still generating revenue for a closed down gym, go to the hard working and already poorly paid trainers and employees of the gym to make sure that they can still pay their rent and eat..

Any thoughts?
