Gym changing room etiquette

[MrsJigsaw]

Joined a gym a couple of months ago. I'm amazed at how many people just leave the locker door wide open after they've finished using it. Also how many people leave hair stuck to the shower cubicle walls.
Maybe it's just my gym, or does this happen at your gym too?
AIBU to find both these things irritating?!

OMG! They leave the locker doors open? That is the worst that is happening in your life right now? You must be devastated.

Oh dear, thought this was a safe place to have a lighthearted moan!
Hope you have a lovely day

I leave the locker door open so that people know it is free. Better that than checking every single (closed) door to eventually find an unlocked one..! Why is it such an issue to you?

Hair and nappies in the shower is grim. Don't mind locker doors open at all!

i don’t use lockers, but wouldn’t that be the right thing to do, so that people can see they’re empty? Why would you close it?

At my gym it's obvious which lockers are free, as there are no padlocks on them.

Yes, @MrsJigsaw, it really irritates me too. Along with people who leave their used towels on the floor or benches.

Obviously a lighthearted moan, but we are allowed to have them!

Nappies? Who mentioned nappies??!

I don’t see why the locker doors thing is a problem?

Regarding hair stuck to shower walls, most people probably don’t even notice they’ve left one hair behind before they get out of the shower, and it’s pretty much part and parcel of using shared facilities really.

I don’t have an issue with open lockers - airs them, allows you to spot free ones.

I think my gym
members are quite mannerly as they don’t leave used towels. The only thing I hate is the odd woman who uses spray deodorant. Yuck.

Yes, my gym is the same. You can tell which are in use as they have a padlock on them so no need to leave open to show they are empty!

Are you new here? AIBU has never been that.

The odd hair is fine, it's more about the clumps of hair. I get people possibly do this at home to save it blocking the drain, but i imagine at home they then put it in the bin or toilet. There are plenty of bins at the gym!

Oh FFS... apologies for posting in the wrong topic!
