About the Uniform

Tonight was VIP night at the club so we've been cleaning and cleaning getting everything just right for the members.  Tonight was also the first night that we were all required to wear our uniforms so the members could pick us out of the crowd.  So this afternoon my boss hands me a t-shirt, pair of shorts and a swimsuit to go try on.  I grabbed it and ran to the locker room.  Being the full bodied woman that I am, I tend to have a hard time finding things that fit, so I really would have rather preferred having this stuff a few days back so I could make sure everything was just so.  But alas I had only a few hours before having to don the uniform in front of thousands of members and perspective members.  I was anxious and excited to put this sucker on.  Imagine my delight horror when I opened the package to discover this...

I tried it on.  Surprisingly, it did fit.  Needless to say, it was not pretty.  :)  

I marched right out to my supervisor and asked him if he was trying to scare the patrons away.  He looked confused, so I explained to him, "This is not a bikini body".  He got a good laugh and half-heartedly promised to order me a one piece when he places the next order.  He ordered bikinis for all of us and I'm not the only one upset about it.  There are even skinny girls who are not interested in showing off their midriff.  So, I hope this gets resolved soon.  Everything else about the place is fabulous... of course, we're not even open yet, but it seems like it will still be fabulous after Friday.  

Tonight was crazy... the amount of people and the steady stream of folks through the pool area was amazing.  The excitement was in everyone.  It's so fun to be a part of the grand opening of a facility like this.  Just watching the way everything is so well-planned and coordinated... it's like a well-oiled machine.   They even had folks parking in a nearby school parking lot then had a tour bus serving as a shuttle between the club and the school.  The CEO was here teaching a spinning class when the first people walked through the doors.  Kids visiting the child care area got free face painting and I think these folks were true artists.  Some of the designs on the kids walking through the pool were AMAZING.  They were giving away smoothies at the poolside Bistro.  And throughout the facility there were demonstrations going on for things like tennis, rock climbing, swim lessons, swim team and even zumba.  Fun times ahead!
