Jealous society??

[The Dude]

So now that we are the fattest, most sloth country in the world it seems like if you're in shape, the majority of people just don't like you. It's happening more and more at my work. Male supervisors and females. It seems the guys feel threatened so they try to write me up for everything they can and then have "witnesses" when they present their BS and they go as far as totally making shit up!! The other people think I'm some narcissist and don't like me until they get to know me, then it's always "I never thought you'd be this way?"
I even see all kinds of people at the gym flocking to trainers that have beer guts!!
I don't see someone wearing a Rolex driving a Porsche and pass judgement, so why is it so common for people that choose to take care of their bodies? It seems to be more and more frequent and honestly it's not helping that I'm still out of work because my employer wants a fourth opinion (literally) that I'm healthy, yet they won't tell me what the issue is!! I am getting paid so I can't bitch too much, but I feel theres more to it.

That sucks, bro. If I was out of shape and had to look at you everyday, I'd be jealous too. But jealous to the point of asking for any advice.

Wow, can I relate. I had a new boss that would tell people how much he lifted weights and he was proud. Peacock type. I didn't meet him until after he was in the hospital for about a month. When we met, he was an ass from the get. He actually made comments that he was "back-yard" strong and not artificial. I ignored it and I wear scrubs which hides a lot of my size. People see me away from work and go "wtf". AnywAy, yes society are asses whether you are in-shape, successful, or good looking. God forbid you have more than one of those criteria. Hell, my fucking ex-wife tried to have me tested and is jelous thAt I'm getting better and better. Life can be a big game, just gotta learn how to play. Which can suck balls sometimes bro

 

[The Dude]

I can play and literally have a check from the Company for 10k on the table as we speak, but I don't need the money and don't think it's worth becoming more of a target. I also just found out that my boss is trying to give me a 1 day suspension LOL!! This is completely at his discretion and is only 2 weeks after I asked if I could "buy" vacation time as I've exhausted mine and we aren't allowed to take time off unpaid. What a dipshit!!! So to really be a dick you're going to give me a vacation day?! LOL!!

My wife dealt with this shit a few years ago at work, she put in for a transfer and is now surounded by younger women who also take care of themselves so she feels right at home, but prior to the transfer they busted her ball,s made comments about how her pants fit her ass and such, just typical hater shit! We think we made it worse when it was back to school night and I cam in to meet all the teachers she was working with and i stick out like a sore thumb, and they werent very friendly no mater how nice we were, so i say fuck them, people like that are generaly MISERABLE throughout their life, so who gives a fuck. However I do understand when its work related and theirs not much you can do about it when its your superiors that are the salty ones, trust me my wife would come home and cry her eyes out and I just wanted to go to the school and rip them a new one, she wouldnt even go to christmas partys cause she knew how i would be to them and the husbands, cause i have a nack for pissing on you and telling u its raining sunshine with a smile, and theirs not much you can say back as im polite about it,lol, but it just would have made things worse.

I can relate. I just kill them with kindness and honesty.

I'd like to kill them with something

I've got to be honest and I hate how everything seems to head this way, but I really don't see our current way of life continuing much longer so you may get your wish.

You should come work in our IT department. Our company sponsors the PF Changs Marathon and sends employees to a Rock N Roll Series of their choice, we're talking about 800 employees. We've won awards for being a healthy company. I've seen some great transformations at the office.

But even with all of the offers we give I constantly hear how "vain" so and so is because she keeps losing weight. There are always going to be people like that in our lives.

Wow guys what a thread. I'm at Myrtle Beach right now looking out the 5th floor balcony and I can't believe how fat america is getting. I'm blessed with two naturally slim kids. My two boys play soccer and baseball, and they love being outside. Today on the beach we played baseball, volleyball, and ladderball. The fat people were laying around watching. I'm thankful that I've developed some healthy habits and that I'm passing them on to my children. My boys sit at the dinner table and can break down the food on their plates into protein, carbs. veggies, and starches. My youngest is 11 and can almost quote how much protein is in 4oz chicken, fish and red meat. Dude, thanks for sharing your work experiences, I hope I don't experience this when I go back to work soon. I'm a ways from 260 something so I can only imagine.

Wow...I'm just happy to hear of a family sitting together for dinner. That's almost unheard of these days. Good for you!

We do it occassionally (when we remember), but we are social deviants so I don't think it counts. I wonder if this particular behavior is actually frowned upon now as it seems if you arent a fat sloth that can discipline your own children and support yourself and your family without Govt assistance you are in the minority in today's society. Damn it... off on a tangent again. Time for my happy meds LOL!

It's all about jealously my friends. These people who make comments snicker and talk shit behind our backs are just to fckn lazy, useless and fckn just plain idiots to want to put in half the effort we do everyday to look the way we do. It never ceases to amaze me how shallow and padantric our society has become.

That is really good to hear. My wife works nights so we have dinner together as much as we can. But it does feel good when I see my kids being so active; they are wrestling 3 days a week for 2 hour practices and in the off season they do gymnastics. My 6 year old already has a six pack, waiting for a parent to tell me I'm putting too much pressure on him lol

I work in IT and surprisingly many people at my company are very fit. Essentially its a bunch of athletes (marathon, triathalon, weight lifting, biking) so I don't think anyone would say a word to me if I was in really good shape. They actually hold many fitness sessions per day for all employees. I guess it helps to work for a company that is directly involved with many fitness events.

OP, I hear you on this. My wife goes through this a lot. Being 5'10'' blonde hair, blue eyes, and works out with me she get's a lot of jealous looks from women. It used to eat at her for the longest time, but now she just smiles at them which catches them off guard and you can see them turn uncomfortable in seconds, lol!

I dont agree bro. Im sure Arnold and every era of guys that followed said this. I remember in the early 1990's, everyone was saying this bc they made juice a controlled drug. Guys want to lift and look great and if there is a demand, there will be a supply. I get a TON of shit at work and I hate that I try to dress down and hide what I work for but I dont care about them, its about me. If I was on an island, I would lift coconuts on bamboo sticks. Fuck society and sometimes Im nice like Nuk said nd sometimes I get like an asshole bc I get tired of it. Theres this guy at work that always says he could kcik my ass and he only says it when women make a comment abnout my arms or something. This went on for about 6 months. I was over nice to him and he is the IVY League type and looks down at me. He wears Polo shirts and is very Metro-sexual. One day I was pissed and he came up to me and said he should bitch slap me for a mistake he saw that I made the day before. I looked at him and leaned over and whispered. "Please, I beg you to slap me bc then I will beat you within an inch of your life". I geuss it was the look on my face and tone. To be honest, it felt good but he is still a prick but he doesnt make stupid comments aboiut kicking my ass anymore.

My family sits down every night for dinner as well. It's definitely something of the past
