Hello all! I'm kinda new here and wanted a bit of input. I'm a fairly wee fellow at about 5' 6" and wanted an opinion on something as I have a predicament in regards to my goal of getting fatter atm. I want to be what the average person would consider to be fat, but due to my job, I am not allowed a waistline larger than 40 inches. Would you consider a 40 inch waist on a 5' 6" male to be fat or at least chubby? Thanks a bunch!
What kind of job has a requirement like that?
Seems unusual, even a bit discriminatory if there isn't a bonafide, legitimate reason for it. Why modeling and acting are the only jobs anywhere where they can hire based on age, race, gender, height, weight, overall looks, etc.
Heard of mobile phone tower technicians being subject to a maximum of 250 lbs because the safety harnesses aren't designed for more, but that seems like B.S. and a cop-out. I don't believe it would be that hard to make a safety harness that could handle more.
Another thought might be sewer plumber because those manholes are only so big, but over time I might expect them to increase in diameter. Newer NYC MTA train cars have wider seats than the old ones, so they must know something.
