Maybe I am having a mini roid rage today but just feel like venting about some things that piss me off. LOL
A little off topic but today I was at a customer's house. She was in her mid 40's, about 50 lbs over weight and with a slim cigarette hanging out of her mouth. They had just finished breakfast (scrambled eggs) and she was relaxing while having a smoke with her teenage girl (also smoking).
I was there to fix the AC and she was telling me how hot it was for her and the husband. She said they could not breathe because of the heat and the husband just had bypass surgery for the second time. His first surgery was when he was 36. I asked if he had been on a special diet and workout program because of his heart. She laughed and said it is all genetic and nothing he can do will matter so he eats what he wants, smokes and does not work out.
Then this guy walks in, he is about 5'10" and weighs 300+. His belly is much bigger then a basketball. WTF???
Then she tells me that working out is a waste of time because you could get hit by a truck at any time so why bother. Since she is a paying customer I didn't debate it with her but holy crap.
I had another customer who is a pretty rich guy and well educated. He told me that most people don't know that smoking actually REDUCES your risk of certin types of cancer, but the media is liberal and won't report this.
Then there are the "when I was in high school guys". These guys piss me off too. They are my age (mid 30's) and have not seen the inside of a gym in a decade, but the ramble on about what animals they were "back in the day". Like I give a crap what they could do 20 years ago. I wanna see them put down the beer and see what they can do TODAY!
I am just getting so fed up with this kind of crap. Then when people hear that I workout 1 hour a day, six days a week, they look at me like I am the freak!
