How to deal with creeps?

No! This is general! You haven't got the hang of this yet have you?

You are supposed to call me a moron and ask me outside for a fight.....

I don't need to tell you that surely?

An update from the person that sent me the issue when I PMed and asked if they were enjoying the replies and parody thread :-

He does his daily preliminary stretch on mat next to said rowing machine and then hops on treadmill right in front of you - you are now at eyelevel with his butcheeks

He does sound wierd. Any normal bloke would do the opposite, find a treadmill with a lady on it and use a rowing machine behind to eye her butcheeks [sic]

I thought staff gyms were a permie benefit?

Seriously though, what would I do? Well, I doubt I'd be comfortable being the only user of the staff gym to begin with. Nor would I personally want to be exercising where there's even a slight possibility of someone I work with joining me. That's why I'd have an external gym membership for that sort of thing.

Otherwise, I'd try what someone's suggested regarding moving to a different machine if he gets too close. If he follows I'd simply speak up and demand my personal space back. If he persists, I may go down the permie-style HR complaint route. But realistically, I would probably just move my gymming out of the office.
