I’m probably going to hell for this, but you can say that for 90% of the shit I post.
Regardless of heaven & hell, the fact of the matter is that we just hired 2 new programmers who have a combined weight of around 1000lbs. It’s crazy, I tell you. The boss of our IT depart weighs in at around 275lbs & stands about 5’2″ tall (he’s the guy who buys the size 50Wx28H pants you see on sale racks @ various department stores). I think he hired the 500lbers just to make himself feel healthy (haha) b/c our company outsources all computer related crap to human drones in India. Those two dudes will probably put on more weight now that they have to sit there for 8 hours & stare @ a fucking computer screen (while they munch on a bag of Cheetos).
So yes, w/ the addition of 1000 or so lbs in the IT department & the finance department already sitting around @ roughly 5000lbs (it’s crazy, I tell you), the heat is seriously turning up in our dwindling office space*.
*The heat theory is based on a study (I can’t remember @ which IVY league uni this study was conducted) where the temperature of a given room is directly proportional to the size of the people who occupy that room.
MOE, is your office space on the second floor or above? I would be a bit worried if you are not at ground level. Things may get a little unstable.
I feel your pain Moe. Their are some huge people in my building too. About 2 months ago, when CA was having all of those earthquakes, one started up. It took my co-workers and I about 30 seconds to realise it wasn't a group of fat people walking down the hall. We even yelled out, "Hey! Whoever is chasing fat people, knock it off!"
