Microsoft, for example, provides its employees with free soda in the buildings and cafeteria. Yes, they do. Another thing I remember about my week in Redmond some 3 or 4 years ago: Microsoft's cafeterias are excellent.

Oh no. Now companies will stop hiring obese people and threaten them with their jobs because of their weight.

It's about time. Once we get rid of the fat people, we can start to work on the ugly.

Yeah, that's what they say. But it's interesting that I've noticed the overweight people I work with are hardly ever out sick and have never taken any disability time for surgery, etc.

MarkOkay here's the plan... we lure him to McDonalds for "all-you-can-eat" free Big Macs. We make sure all the windows are glazed so he can't see how ugly he is... we douse him in Hair-remover... then pummel him with day-old McGriddles until dead or full (if he eats instead of dies due to McGriddle-pummelization).

However I do eat there regularly for breakfast... "2 egg mcmuffins, hold the muffins!"
