I get more annoyed at the guys who deadlift in the squat rack. Not rack pulls or anything, but just setting the bar on the ground and deadlifting in the rack. They are just using the floor. They could do that literally anywhere else in the entire gym.

I have to dead lift in front of the squat rack at my gym because there is zero floor space to really do it anywhere else without commandeering one of the benches.
If someone comes up while I'm squatting and asks how many sets I have left and the bench is free, then I'll take the bench (but that is crowded and too many people walk through there and don't pay attention. I've had people almost run straight into the bar while I'm lifting). If nobody is waiting on the squat rack, then I'm dead lifting in front of that mother****er.
I work out at a smaller and crowded 24 Hour fitness here.
