I applied for the job on the craigslist sending both a cover letter and a resume. The employer called me in a couple of days, and told me what I would be doing, and if it still interested me. He asked what wage would you be satisfied at. I said considering my past credentials of working in various sporting goods stores, being athletic, and having past customer relationship skills, proudly said $12-$13 an hour. Equinox says they pay the highest wage of all the other major gym names--I don't believe them. We talked a little more and then he said you can have the position but you would get paid $9 an hour and have open and free access to the gym. I said No to the offer. I believe the employer should have told me right away how much the position pays instead of trying to take my pride away and lower myself in the case I would have accepted the offer. He sounded nice and his intentions appeared to be true. But if you are looking for a job and would like to make a little money and have free access to a gym, then this would be a great job for you. This is not a career!
