Yesterday we told you about free dry cleaning for the jobless, and today there’s more good news for out-of-work New Yorkers. Eric Slayton, owner of New York Underground Fitness, says that anyone who shows him proof of lost employment will be welcome at his gym–free of charge. “I feel an obligation, and am in a position to help people through this tough time,” Slayton says. “There’s more to this business than just counting how many memberships you can sell. I’m not forgetting why I own a gym and train—it’s because I have a sincere belief in what I do, and what establishing a healthy and fit lifestyle can do for the other parts of your life,” he adds. What a guy. Bet you never thought unemployment could work wonders for your waistline!
