What I hate is the stupid BMI index. I'm not fat (I have gained enough weight back to be about 10 lbs over what I consider to be my ideal weight), but the only time I've ever fallen within the range of what my BMI says is a good weight is prior to my first surgery after I'd dropped 30 lbs or so.

Yeah...if I went by the BMI index, I would look downright skeletal. Everyone has a different body type.

I hate job interviews.

I hate people who make weight the defining attribute that determines an individual's worth.

What is your honest guess of my weight (don't worry about hurting my feelings and if anybody else has guesses to offer I'm interested; public or PM)?

okay, lets put it this way.... I know you are taller than I am, and you are broader than me in a few areas. But you were also heavier the very first time I did MA, and I still have those pics....

I am 235, so my guess would be 260-270

(Now I will go back and read the rest of the posts, in case you answered later)

I have this image of you running away from a horror movie psycho, and it's cracking me right the frig up.

You're not alone there! Back when I was applying for jobs, it didn't matter that my resume was properly spelled and formatted, and that I was dressed for the best day for the job. When the interview process took place, 90% of the time, I blew it!

I hear that coming up with potential questions to ask and researching the company you work for are great tips to master any interview setting, though. It's had limited success for me, but it's worth a shot.

That is what I have been doing. I know I'm not blowing the interview, it is just the waiting that bugs me. "Come in for an interview today, we will let you know in 2-3 weeks."

People who unload [computer] viruses at work and think it's funny.
People who think the rules don't apply to them.
People who submit new trouble tickets for status reports instead of just following up with the person helping them.
People who don't understand that their issue is not the most important one right now.
People who request an update on their [non-critical] issue every hour.

But I really do love my job.
