Etiquette at the Gym

My gym is signup only and it is fair and reasonable and generally avoids confrontation. I go to the gym to work out, not to do some sick power play or to wait around until someone decides to let me workout. I show up, I sign up, the machine I sign up for is mine for the time I am signed up on it, end of story, no argument. I will not let you finish up "just five minutes" if it cuts into my time, and I am not rude for saying "I signed up. NOW." A person who refuses to follow signup rules and asks me to forfeit my time is rude.
Geez all you guys must have crappy gyms. At NYSC if someone is using the exact machine I want to use, I use something else. I expect them to do the same. I let people work in. I expect to work in.

Guys, buck up for the gyms that keep the riffraff out.
