Count On It
Friday, November 4, 2011 at 2:14PM We have some new employees at work and this week they are in our office training.
It is always good to step back from what you do all the time and train someone who knows nothing about your company or your industry. It allows you to really see how much you know about what you do. It's like updating your resume. Self assessment happen when you have to teach others what you know. I dig that.
At my work we always eat lunch together in our break room. Today the new team members sat with us and the conversation between them was cracking me up.
A couple of them are very interested in losing weight and one is trying to gain some weight. Whenever anyone thinks "needing to gain weight" is a blessing, images of starving kids pop into my head. People sometimes need to gain weight for medical purposes. It is not always a blessing.
The other thing that cracked me up was the two of them counting calories and complaining how difficult it is. "You are going to drive yourself crazy counting calories all the time. To have to do that every time I eat anything would be torture!"
Oh I wanted to say what you know I wanted to say, but I didn't.
I just wore blue and smiled.

You are SUCH a better person than I George :0)
Yeah man... that would totally suck to have to count every food and drink that entered your body.
Could you imagine if you had to factor in exercise and stuff like that too?
That would be awful.
