Ramp 15: Wrong answer

Gym.
Barbell warm up then front squats 5 x 95, 5 x 135.
Then 165 x 8 then Front squats, followed immediately by a 1 min run @1%/12MPH. Times 3*

Deadlifts 3x 225, 3x 245 3x 265.

*before the 3rd set of squats a mousy person dismantled my set up and took over the squat rack. I politely waited until quite a while until she finished her set of curtsy's then asked her if she minded if I worked in my last set. "Seriously?" was the response, "Seriously, you were here before? I have like 5 sets to do. You really just have one? Will it take long?". Wrong answer. One minute and a few carelessly thrown plates later she had 'her' bar back. Hope it did not ruin her fucking day.
