Original Post

I was sitting at my desk at work last night and this woman I work with comes up to me and says "Hey Slim-Jim, how do you eat that crap and stay so skinny?" I turned to her and replied "Don't call me names you fat cow."

Now, I'm not skinny by any means, I'm 5'6" and wear a size 12 on a good day and take pride in my wonderfully developed "muffin top", although I don't publicly emphasize it by wearing tight clothes. And the "crap" I was eating was an apple, a granola bar and a big soft pretzel with mustard. Hardly crap compared to the can of Pringles and big bag of Skittles this 400+ pound woman was eating.

Well, she evidently didn't like being called a fat cow and went crying to the boss (she cries all the time about everything) and submitted a written complaint that I was "discriminating against her". I disputed the complaint and it was dismissed based on her harassing me first. (WTF, how was that discrimination anyhow? What a dope!)

By the way, this was same the woman whom I yelled at to STFU while standing on my desk last week. One would think she would just learn to keep her mouth shut.

Moral of this story: Please don't fuck with me at work, you will not win. (Yeah, I've got some serious self-induced bad karma lately...)

When my daughter called the cops on me I said I would rather deal with them than with a fucking bitch and somehow she took offense to that. Go figure

Some people eat a lot because they are unhappy. Which sometimes enables them to feel like perpetual victims.

Sounds like she's one of those.

Seriously unhappy with herself. She should at least take care who she antagonizes with that!

I used to feel bad for this woman, but she brings all kinds of negativity upon herself. Really, I'm not a bad person!

Just another friendly reminder of why I quit my job.
