    I am not a stereotypical CPA.

    I'm usually hired to come in and clean up messes. Many of these messes are self inflicted by existing executives.

    Quite often, it is not a solution they seek, but instead validation for past courses of action that got them in their mess to begin with.

    Other than that, it seems you are still hung up on our previous discussion?

    Havn't read every post but in my experience..... size has helped. Must say..... I look pretty cool in a pair of hospital scrubs Look dumb as fvck in a suit tho lol!

    While i'm no monster..... i'm noticably larger than the average guy..... and it brings up conversation with docs, nurses, office monsters (receptionists) - everyone has something to say. One OR tech introduced herself to my boss durring a case and shook his hand. Then she said "I'd shake his hand but he looks like he'd break me" LMFAO! I spun that around and told her I was a gentle giant haha - had a good laugh with everyone in the room and I got 2 more orders out of em. In my experience..... the doctors are the only ones who bring up steroid comments..... not necesarily in a bad way though. I cant tell you how many ortho doc's i've heard say "Yeah.... i'm seeing alot of necrosis in the joints from steroid use today......" - My policy: Never admit to using em.....

    Failure is not and option..... ONLY beyond failure is - Haz

    I find that too, it opens doors to conversations that people don't normally have and remember you more so than they would normally. I deal with a big whole saler can be a very beligerent man but from my size he started asking me did I play rugby etc

    That´s the internet, right?
    Posting something on FB, Myspace, chatrooms, forums. It´s hard to see if someone is serious, or just being a little sarcastic, or being funny. Dry humor is really hard to send across the internet. Even friends misunderstand each other, because we don´t have the facial expression to go along with the sentence. Strangers on forums, even harder.

    Yeah, my last visit, to get my shoulder examined, she asked if I´ve been doing steroids . And ofcourse I said no.(And I really had not, except from 4 months HGH and a little Androgel rubbing). She said, Ok, let´s just say you are genetically lucky then, with a smile.
    And as I´m mentioning Androgel.....my Total Test went from about 15 to 26 (8-35). And I had just as good results with that, as I had with the cycle I just finished with 500mgs Cyp!!!!!....where my Total test was 50+. Just goes to show, more is not more.

    Which is really annoying sometimes, especially at parties where the guys wants to play-fight and wrestle a little bit, pestering me for arm wrestling. ANd wants to demonstrate for me how they do squats. While I´m really there to hang out, talk to some chicks, and my old friends. Now if the chicks wants to show me how they do squats, or wrestle a little bit.......for some weird reason, that is ok.

    Doesn't bother me the people that do that are intemediated by you like meself. My boss seems like pretending to punch me when I am standing next him kinda like you would with a buddy but I know for a fact it's cos he's intemediated by myself. Would be always asking questions about training. I just don't bother with letting it get on my nerves there's no point really.

    Women I have no problem either.

    I hate suits...lol
    But bought a nice suit last year in the US. But then I went to tailor, and overdid it. I tailored to an exact fit. Problem is, I´m 20lbs heavier now, and I look completely ridiculous in it.
    Got myself a nice watch last year too though. First nice watch I ever bought. Love it.
    I'm like you, I hate monkey suites. I finally bit the bullet and had 2 suits made 3 years ago while in Thailand and they looked sharp. I made sure to have the tailor leave a little room in the arms and chest for growth. Now they are to tight in the chest, cant hardly squeeze my arms in them let alone raise my arms without ripping the shoulders and the pants are 3 sizes to big. LOL

    I found a good place to buy very nice suits. GoodWill.... We need them a little baggy anyways and it's easy to re fit most pants or find something that matches.

    No, it didnt fit LONG before I though about tren . I got it just at my start of the TRT when i was still around 205lb and it was just after that I got back into the gym. Even though I lost 40lbs of fat and up to 180-185 it's to tight now where at 205lbs it was a little loose. LOL

    These are all things that I think of when I think what a BB must be like to succeed... It's just a shame that most employers will not respect this unless they too are into BB
    If the oppurtunity arises in an interview or whatever you could use this to your advantage and explain this to your interviewer or prospective employer, its got to be better than some dude saying shit like ' I enjoy socialising and meeting new people' ie in the pub every night drunk.

    There was a book out in the 70's called "Dress for Success". I would urge anyone who is troubled by this thread to read it. It is as applicable today as it was when written.
