    There’s a guy I see here and there at the gym, he has an intellectual disability and a support worker who helps him load machines etc. He’s spoken to me a few times.

    This group of teenage boys were staring at him working out on a machine (the form isn’t great but at least he’s doing something while they just laugh at him and sit around on their phones barely doing any working out). And then they mocked the way he walked and all laughing at that. Disgusting behaviour to witness.

      I have a soft spot for people who are doing their best despite their circumstances.

      You’re a better than me, because I would have lost my cool.

      Can you complain to the staff? That kind of thing can border on harassment and put someone off coming to the gym (as well as being disgusting bully behaviour).
