Locker-room Etiquette

Have you ever been thrown into an incredibly awkward situation? Well today that was the case with me. Today, when I was changing after my workout, and these two old dudes come out of the shower area in their birthday suits. That isn't that strange though, usually if you walk in the locker-room, you are bound to see at least one dude showering or walking to their locker. No, today was different. Both these guys had lockers on either side of me and they decided to the most inconsiderate thing I have ever seen, they stood on the bench and chatted it up, with me in the middle. The Grateful Dead's "Stuck in the Middle" was ringin' in my head. Scaring images are now filled into my brain. I'm sorry, if you are showering, please don't stand on the bench when naked, and don't turn towards someone not interested in your junk. This experience has inspired to list out what I thought were common knowledge of how to act in a locker-room.

1. Do not, I repeat do not stay naked for longer than you have to.

2. Do not strike up a conversation with a guy inbetween both of you.

3. BRING A TOWEL! When walking, please wear it.

4. Flip-flops for the shower. Nobody wants athletes foot

5. Don't stand on bench and turn towards someone.

I trust you all don't prance around in all your pride and glory when changing, but this is suggestions for those who seem to not get it.
