The sad fact is that, no matter what JC does, it can't fix a regional housing shortage. JC can't fix the problem, only nibble at the edges a bit.

They did issue a half-assed apology, but no one's really buying it since they doubled down when they got called out over it before the event occurred.

They literally don't clean. They have bottles at the desk that members can use on their own to clean equipment themselves when they use it, and not everyone does. It has dirty CARPET (in a gym 🤮) that smells and looks like it hasn't been vacuumed or shampooed since the 1990s, there are visible spiderwebs in places throughout the gym, the mats are filthy and worn and also look like they've been used and not cleaned since the 90s, there's no proper filtration and air flow, and I could go on. They hardly even pick up weights and return them to where they belong. Lack of cleanliness is definitely not an opinion, it's a fact.
As for friendly people, sure the members are, but certainly not most of the staff. Maybe if you have been going there every day for 30 years, they say hello. I am a long term resident, but most of the staff is not long term staff. There's a gentleman in the morning and 1 female who's sometimes there in the afternoon who are the exception to the rule and are always pleasant. Every other staff member I've encountered doesn't even look at you when you come and go, and couldn't bother to say hello or goodbye, even when I say it to them! They're just weird. I've never experienced that in ANY gym I have ever gone to. Even gyms with bad service, if you say hello 1st, they'll at least respond.

Reply to We were warned (BTW resignation when?) by Iconospastic
(I am no way supporting her and agree she needs to resign) I went to high school with her, and can definitely agree.. she trips over her own feet.. a lot.. and I vaguely recall her falling out of her seat in class once.

Support the DEP plan to preserve this green space!
JC has few large green spaces and LSP belongs to the State of NJ. Like most of the green spaces remaining, it should be preserved and protected.
JC should consider ratio of population to green spaces and start preserving the green patches that remain.
Its up to the NJ Gov. and two NJ senators to come out and defend DEP plan.
What are their positions on this?

Send a link to the scam apartment. I'm so curious to see if the ad looks legit. I may be looking to move when my lease is up in a few months. Would be nice to see what to look for

i dont find it dirty, but I can agree to not call it spotless. I also find the people friendly, and thats why i mentioned attitudes of long term residents vs new ones.

Dawg, it is literally tied. You are arguing semantics, which is super schlubby.

Does JSQ not exist? It took a while for development to move outside of DT, because DT was a bunch of parking lots that were easy to develop.
