Pretty much. I’m not sure I totally buy into that it’s much of an increase though. Or people would be dropping like flies.

I think the bigger issues is just being generally overweight. The percentage of overweight people is crazy, regardless of their jobs.

I’m 55 and not to be an old man and say “in the old days”, but in the old days, when I was growing up. I knew ONE overweight person. Yeah, just one. It just wasn’t common. Look at pics from the 1970’s, and you just won’t see a whole lot of overweight people.

Now? Everywhere I look. I’m sure more office workers have added to that, but that doesn’t account for everyone.

I work in an elementary school. And I was sitting at lunch just looking around and thinking about it. Teachers are actually pretty active. Lots of walking around the classroom. Very little sit down time in an elementary school.

Me and two others are fit. Rest are all overweight. How did this happen?!

Ok, rant over. Just got me to thinking. :)

Really? And here I am trying to figure out how to live forever!

No, don’t do that. Stress is bad for the heart too! lol

Good points! I should have remembered telemarketing, I actually did that for 3 years! But two years in office, covid let us do it from home.

I actually like the look of these!

I like the idea of it. I live in a house. And the windows thing stresses me out because of the expense of fixing them if broken, easy access for intruders, etc. lol

suppose we must push harder for remote work

But most remote work pays enough that housing isn’t an issue. Many lower paying jobs require us to be on-site, and we’re the ones that can’t afford housing.

So I think the option is way more affordable housing, and removing the stigma around that. In my area it’s called Section 8, and of course, those options always seem to be in the more crime-ridden areas. So frustrating.

Holy shit, that’s a great point that I wouldn’t have thought of. Great fucking point.

I want to do this so bad. I really just need to take the jump and start doing it rather than researching it. I wish there were a step-by-step, teach me like I’m in fifth grade, sorta tutorial on it.

This looks awesome, but for some reason, these things never take off and take hold.
