Weird sort of incident
i belve evry1 is aware of the gym nr Ramada Signal also i think not all can afford membership of tht gym i.e QR750 per month...thou m here to say sumthin very weird happened with me today in gym...as a routine i had been to gym...first of all the membership recording system there is just ridiculous, donno whether it happened with just me or with some other members too...today was the fifth time i had to clarify with the staff that i paid for year membership and last month had freezed my membership for 30 days, per no!!! the stupid system still shows that my membership expired!!!
after around wasting 10 mins on the reception itself finally recvd locker key got my bag and abaya placed in it and than started my workouts. after around 1.5hrs after finishing i realised that i missed my locker key so to get the duplicate one reported to reception....again idiotically having a duplicate key the staff started to search the missed key which again took nearly 15-30 mins..after my repeatedly asking to get the locker open since i was in a hurry to leave, a very stupid sort reply was given to me "madam v will open the locker for you and will try to search the key but if it is not found you have to pay 50 riyal!!!!" thou i agreed as there was no way out, thn one of the instructors accompained me towards locker and get my locker open with duplicate key.....and thn wht i found vrrrrrroooooooooooooooooom my hand bag is not in the locker!!!!!!!!
sumbody took my keys got my bag out and took it with her...how cheap!!!! and the best part the lady on reception is aware that i carried a red bag with me as she liked that one very much and she couldnt recognize same bag being taken away by another member, either she was not at reception or was sleeping sitting there...
now they started checking all other lockers and another amazing thing came up there were few lockers with no key the instructor got a screw driver and push outwards from the edge and the locker door is unlocked!!! without requiring any key!!!
i know here are my ppl having membership of that gym and also might be suggesting..just asking you guys to take care coz members arriving with those branded accessories paying thousands for their gym membership got khadma with thm to take their bag just few stairs down where their driver is waiting for them can attempt such third grade deeds...atlst she got some ethics and moral values not take my abaya alongwith my bag or may be abaya is not of her class :P or may be she is not wearing abaya
plz let me make me clear that m not pointin to any particular community or member...i evn dont kno neither doubt on anyone....
jst wondering wht that lady would be doing with my cards as no money inside :D or may be she took it as she too liked my bag :D rather than buying this could be an easier way for her...i hope she returns back atlst my cards i dont need the bag jst preventing myslf from the hassle to reissue all of them..
thnk you
cheers
posted double..so deleted.
i sometimes go to the supermarket below the gym as its the next building to my office....strange, such incidents shouldnt generally happen in a place like this where almost every visitor is well to do....unless ofcourse someone is a kleptomaniac.
Glad I can't afford the gym memberships here...since 750 is an entire month's expenditure... and nobody wants to steal my unbranded bag... :0(
But thank you for the warning - won't even think of joining any gyms later and definitely not the one mentioned...

I have only been here a day but have to say that is cheap
I hope i do not encounter a similar situation
I am sorry for your loss and hope the police find the culprit
Nice photo, which is pajju and which is Rizk?

I'm sorry that your bag was stolen, but did you not lose the key you were given in the first place? I know that losing such things happen to the best of us and you have suffered some severe consequences as a result. I hope it works out for you.
As a suggestion for the future, I always had an elasticated key ring that I could slip on my wrist in order to avoid any similar problems.
However, as to insisting the staff produce a duplicate key because "you're in a hurry to leave" - well, maybe they don't keep the duplicate keys (if they have such) in a readily accessible location to try and prevent any thefts. Also it is standard operating procedure to get a key fee if the one given out is lost (it has to be duplicated or the lock replaced and this costs time, effort, and money - nor can the locker be used in the meantime).

be careful sweetie!
"Crispin, Basilio...where the **** are you both?"
It was pajju and Rizks from QL who came to the gym dressing like woman ;-) they are in Tokyo now for honeymoon, using your credit cards for shopping...
here is the proof...
well my first doubt was either pajju/rizks but thn naaaaaaa its a ladies gym!!!!
n i really dont think tht fingerprints are gonna help me as daily 100s of members are visit gym and availing locker facility other then tht many use it as a support while wearing those 6-7 inches heels b4 leaving...they might get the fingerprints but will nevr investigate further....IF I WAS A QATARI THN THERE MIGHT BE SOME CHANCES
it is weird a world.
i'm actually shocked someone would buy, let alone steal a red bag.
LOL
My firend lost i-phone 3GS, Nokia E75 and a wallet in Fitness First Lockers.
Be extra careful and hope your items are recovered.

Well if you say they can open up the lockers with a freaking screw driver i doubt having keys are of any use. they need to up their security in the locker rooms.
PS: Rizks took your bag, he said it matches with his shoes :P
PSS:I'M KIDDING

you should block all ur cards first to prevent it from unauthorise use.... hope police can find her with her finger prints if she had not use gloves... what a weird incident on such a star hotel/gym... better than that it is gym at mattar, we keep everything on a receiption/table and take it back after finishing the gym.. till now no incident...
keys
keep them on a cord round your neck
put them in your bra
sorry to hear about this
your credit cards. Hopefully the police told you that first thing.
With the help of finger prints, it wont be that difficult for the cops to identify the culprits. They have the database of the finger prints of all the expatriates...dont know about the locals though. :0)
this is indeed shocking.thanks for sharing infact its a lesson for all of us to be careful every where.

thnk u guyz...the first think i did is reported to police fortunately the cop tht attended me was the best one i had came across till date...the moment i explained him the incident he called gym officials and ask thm to freez the locker that i used i.e. number 6...and few moments ago i recved call from gym stating that the official will be visiting the gym to take fingerprints...m quite positive nuthing is gonna happen!!! if sumthing does tht could be a miracle only!!!
I am sorry but shouldn't you be reporting it to the police...

Be extra careful with your keys next time. Hope you recover your cards.
