I'll preface this by saying I work at a top 5 (well, I guess it's now the big four) investment bank, so a lot of people are extremely judge-mental and snooty....just the nature of the business...well today I'm waiting for a meeting to start in a conference room on the trading floor...a group of about 5-6 people who are extremely senior to me come in, and I'm fortunate enough to have relations with all of them....they told me they were taking the room since no one else from my meeting was there yet...casual joking goes on and they tell me I can come in and kick them out if need be, so of course the weightlifting jokes start...haha yeah whatever, so I walk out, and I hear the guy go "okay, so this quarter, benchpress up, squats are marginally down, blah blah" It's all good and fun and humor, but that is the first thing people see and notice, and unfortunately they all associate being a stupid meathead with that. Everyone in my group jokes around with me and CONSTANTLY talk about my eating patterns, the protein bottle under my desk, etc....well you know what, save it for the fat fuck a few cubes down that acts like he would die if he didn't grab 6 cookies everytime they were out
Okay, sorry....just had to vent....but I just hate in this society it is okay to have a prejudice and openly criticize and joke about certain traits, but not others
