    One time my fat friend was sitting on one of those exercise balls and we both heard an air escaping sound and just had time to exchange quizzical looks before pop and his fat ass hit the floor

    I had a coworker in Houston who used to fall asleep at his desk everyday. He was in his 50s and had awful diabetes he refused to take any medicine for because "sometimes your body needs rest from pills". So I suspect the "falling asleep" was really just him being passed out because his blood sugar was so high. He, for some reason, thought when it got really high he needed to self-regulate by eating bite size candy. He would do the finger prick at his desk by me and his blood sugar would be over 300...like nearing a diabetic coma. He would be pleased with that reading and say it was "an improvement". He also would leave work every day after all of this happening and drive for Uber.

    Anyways, one day he fell asleep at his desk and was leaning forward in his chair so hard that his body weight finally sheared the screws that held the seat on, it shot the chair out from behind him, and he fell backwards. Behind our cubicle was a big potted plant. He fell into it face first.

    I found out later before I started working in that office he had already done that twice.

    The office now refers to that plant as the "face plant"

    Nutritional Services stocks several things in the OR breakroom for the staff to consume. Nothing crazy, stuff like a couple loaves of bread, saltines, graham crackers, & peanut butter. We have a new kid going through our Perioperative RN program (basically learning how to become an OR Nurse) that refuses to bring his own bfast/lunch to work and just loads up on the free stuff. Whenever anyone brings in stuff like donuts for the crew, he goes to town like a goddamn freeloader. It was one of my co-worker's last day last week, the surgeon that was working with her that day wanted to treat the Ortho team to pizza so he ordered 7 pizzas for us. They were still in the middle of a case when it was delivered so we put the pizza in the breakroom and covered them with warm blankets until they were able to eat. That kid saw the pizza, got super excited and grabbed a plate. Another RN told him that pizza wasn't for him and that fucker just lingered in the breakroom like a buzzard. After the ortho team got theirs, he swooped in and grabbed like 1/2 a pizza. Shit like that grinds my gears

    We had an executive meeting a month ago at work where they had to order a second catered lunch because they were late breaking from their meeting and everybody in our IT and purchasing department swooped in and helped themselves to plates of food before the people it was meant for had a chance to eat.

    I caught one of the main perpetrators of this heinous crime in the act again today. She pillaged a box of flavored hot chocolate k-cups someone had set out for the office and got probably 10-15 cups and took them back to her desk.

    Yes, she’s a big girl.

    Had a before shift meeting for Ortho/Neuro today where breakfast was provided. Nothing fancy, Egg/Cheese/Sausage on a bagel sandwich. There were extras left over so we took them to the breakroom for general consumption. Freeloading Tyler swooped in and grabbed 3 of those sandwiches...fucking hell

    Freeloading Tyler reminds me of a woman I work with who is the sole reason that whenever free food is provided for my company, management sends out an email stating how much is there per person under threat of never providing food again.

    Man keto has really become one of the more annoying fads. I ate a high fat diet 2 years ago to lose weight and dropped 30 pounds. Took a boatload of shit for it because people insisted it didnt work. Now these same fuckers are all guzzling coconut oil and butter and insisting they are keto as fuck. Wack.

    The idea is that by cutting carbs out of your diet and increasing the amount of fats you consume, your body begins to burn fat rather than sugar/carbs for fuel. Just putting butter in coffee will not do anything but if you completely stop eating carbs for a couple weeks and consume a higher amount of fats, you will lose weight. I lost 30 lbs in about 10 weeks

    its a strategy for adding additional fats and making coffee more filling so you dont get as hungry. Ive only had it a couple times but its not that gross honestly. Not my first choice haha but its not the grossest shit on earth or anything
