((Kathy)) - I hope things turn around for you with work. I'd be pretty pissed if someone knowingly stole one of my clients and I did nothing wrong to deserve that sort of treatment. But don't worry, the law of reciprocity will kick your a-hole co-worker in his ass in ways you can hardly imagine. I'm guessing 24 Hour Fitness is commissioned based similar to Bally's right? As a trainer, you get paid based on the number of sessions and products you sell?
I have a membership with Bally's but once the trainer told me I needed to pay $1500 up front for 20 sessions, I said "no thanks". She tried to impress me with her nutrition advice which was just plain wrong and I told her, "Look, you must be desperate and think I'm stupid to take advice from someone who suggested that I needed to fill up on donuts or similar carbs to help me get through my workout. Your ridiculous advice would set me up for a blood sugar crash."
So take stock that you are good at what you are doing and you are trying to do it in a responsible way. Sure, you might have to leave 24 Hour Fitness to find a job where your ethics are appreciated but at least you can sleep well at night and not everyone can say that.
Chin up!
