I’ve said this before and I’ll say it again, but people severally overestimate how many calories they burn doing their jobs for reference intense cardio workouts burn like as much as a Big Mac worth of calories ain’t no way your burning that much doing a fraction of the intensity. All this to say I work in a pretty demanding physical job and managed to gain weight just fine, the work is more exhausting now no doubt but putting on weight was a matter of calories in and I didn’t need to switch my job.

I also want to stress again that you should never switch jobs just to gain weight. If you like your job, it pays well, and you don't have a reason to switch jobs otherwise, stay where you are.

One of the reasons people get fat with sedentary jobs is stress. And the pay and benefits aren't always worth it.

This. The job I had where I gained 100+ pounds had lots of food around, but it was burning me out.

I used to deliver pizza. There were always mistakes sitting on the oven for us to nibble on. It was also pretty loose with us making snacks.

Sedantary jobs

I was 19 and got a summer job in a factory. Down in the garage was a security desk occupied by a cute middle-aged woman who never seemed to get up from that chair.

She was covered in rolls of beautiful fat and she could tell I was crazy about her but I was only 19, so she didn't take me seriously as a suitor lol...that was ok. But she did tease me!

"Don't work too hard!" she'd say. "I won't!"

"Aww you get to sit all day?" I asked.

"Yup!" she said. "How do you think I got this figure?"

This. Worked with someone in my youth who was so wide, I'm talking supersized pear I never saw stand up (accountant) One day she was opening her office and she couldn't fit through her door. Had to go sideways I swear my jaw broke. She had this tiny chair too!

Sedentary jobs are easy for gains but sometimes it takes longer than usual. Slight exercise for mobility and to gain at heavier sizes is definitely a plus
