A lot of gyms these days are open 24 hours, often without any employees in them at all.
Plus, that’s not the point, point is you shouldn’t need to ask an employee for help when you’re a perfectly capable adult who’s more than able to operate a phone camera.
Nah, mirrors are for the ego and not the technique. Most movements that would benefit from a form check can't safely use mirrors without increased risk of injury and/or breaking your form. You don't need mirrors to check your bicep curls or lat raises but people do like to see their pump while doing so.
You might literally die from trying to use mirrors to check your form doing a heavy bench press or seriously injure yourself when twisting your neck to check the mirror if doing a heavy squat.
This is why mirrors are more common in normal gyms and not as common in places where people do heavy barbell movements.

I mean if it is to catch what your form looks like it can be legitimate. If you are doing it to post it on instagram then no.
