So I recently started a new job and I've been dealing with a LOT of thin shaming from my new boss. She looks like fifty pounds of shit in a five pound sack, nothing but a giant, jealous, giggly jelly goblin and frumpy as all hell.
We had to order company shirts/ hoodies. I asked for small shirts and a medium fitted hoodie (we were told it runs 1-2 sizes small). I turned in my order and she asks me, "SkinnyCow, are you sure you need small shirts?". Yes, you oreoger, I'm 5'3" 115 lbs, reluctantly she enters my shirts (which fit perfectly). Then it came time to order the hoodie, "SkinnyCow, are you sure you need a medium hoodie? They run small." Yes, you pathetic waste of resources! Well I got my hoodie, it's a large and it swallows me. When I went to complain because, I wanted a FITTED hoodie she said something along the lines of, "Well maybe you'll grow into it. You're too skinny anyway."
Then yesterday, I was complaining about the AC being set to 63 even though it was raining outside and freezing. I was pretty much told by the frumpy fupacabra and everyone else in the office that I needed to relax because it wasn't even pointing at me, I needed to eat a sandwich, and I should gain some weight because I was too thin.
BONUS: Wonder bread warrior has also told me that she doesn't have the resources to send her two kids to college/ care for them but it's okay because she's going to help them get scholarships when they're old enough.

AC set on 63. Yet more evidence that fats squander resources.

I work in accounting at my store, and the office has its own temp control separate of the rest of the building. When I have to work with the BIGGEST motherfucker there, he's always setting it down to absurdly low temperatures and I'm left having to bring a hoodie while my hands freeze off.
He's also ALWAYS complaining about how he feels, because he will go for HOURS without eating, then binge like mad once he does get a lunch break. This is why you're like 400+ lbs bro. You're a slave to your shuguhz.
I was in the office yesterday with the team leader who is a petite, older asian woman, and the room was set to a cozy 74. Absolutely glorious. Everyone who came in to do their paperwork commented on how nice it was in the office, and how jealous they were of our warm safehaven.

~17.2C , this is uncomfortably cold if one is not moving around.

I usually leave the heat at 65F because I'm cheap and the idiots who put the heating system in the house made the upstairs and downstairs 1 circuit. In an office that's fucking brutally cold. Great running weather, not great working weather.

If you have an HR department, report her! That's harassment and she needs to cut it out.
[–] l23r 0 points 15 points 15 points (+15|-0) ago
Unfortunately HR is usually full of fat people too.
If OP goes, keep it very basic. At [time] on [date] [person] said [quote] If they ask for an impact statement, say something like "Ms. so-and-so made comments about my body that made me uncomfortable. I feel Ms. so-and-so is creating an unsafe environment" Don't go into how she is fat and being bitchy. Keep the focus on you and your feelz and triggerz.

Doesn't matter how fat HR is. Make that shit go on record, there will be trouble later after some totally innocent normal comment gets taken out of context or blown up for no reason.

Next time, just give them your exact dimensions. Would be bound to piss them off, but there's nothing they can really do about it since you're just telling them your size so they can order the correct clothing. "I wouldn't want you to spend even more money on clothes that won't fit." * smile *
Depending on what your job entails, having baggy clothes can be unsafe. At the very least, they don't look "nice" for the customers.

I've had to deal with this when it comes to company shirts as well. Ended up ordering a few that look like tents as size S-M, when I asked if I could reorder (I offered to pay out of my own pocket) one of the other women in the office made a big deal about doing a new shirt order for everyone "because she's (me) just SO SKINNY!" No one else was even involved but I got to deal with snotty glares from the other 3xl ladies that work there.
Totally understand the AC thing too I have a space heater under my desk because everyone else at work is sweating constantly. AC blasting when it's 60 degrees yet I'm the one that needs to eat more. Sorry you have to deal with this, jealous salty fat blobs gonna hate.

"fupacabra" is an amazing term!
Funny enough she has the resources to stuff her face into obesity but not the resources for her kids though.
[–] ShitArchon 0 points 2 points 2 points (+2|-0) ago
Exactly. If she doesn't have a bad salary, how could she be too poor to save up for her kids to go to college? She just squanders it all on immediate gratification instead. Psychologists call this "having a high time preference."
Fat people really do have narcissistic personality traits.
[–] TheSkinnyCow [S] 0 points 1 point 1 point (+1|-0) ago
exactly, and she ALWAYS has fast food/ candy bars in and around her desk. she's like a hoardy little hobbit (only not little)

Have an up vote! You typed exactly what I was thinking.
[–] ShitArchon 0 points 3 points 3 points (+3|-0) ago (edited ago)
Lemme guess: Frumpty Dumpty would rather buy her daily 700+ calorie dose of Starbuck's each day than save up for her kids to go to college.
Remember how Chris Chriscoe spent 90K a year on food as governor?
[–] TheSkinnyCow [S] 0 points 1 point 1 point (+1|-0) ago
yup. always has fast food with her

Haha I run hot anyway, I frequently get in trouble for dicking with the A/C unit. That one isn't exclusive to fats but I have a similar issue at my work. I'm a big man 6'5, broad shouldered, scary looking motherfucker, whenever we order new shirts the boss just guesses our sizes and if we don't fix it before she makes the order you're stuck with her guess. Bitch ordered me a 2XL, I complained because I wear a large and she said, "Hellboundclown, there's no way you wear a large because I'm an XL, and you're way bigger than me." No, you're way fatter than me you ham, just because I'm taller doesn't mean my waist has to be rounder. So I snagged one of the larges out of the pile and quickly put one on to show them that in fact I wear a large. By the looks on their faces I swear it was almost like I was David Copperfield their minds, no ladies is not magic, it's weight training!

You should go to hr about the thin shaming.
[–] TheSkinnyCow [S] 0 points 1 point 1 point (+1|-0) ago
I work at a non profit, there really isn't an hr and if there was....Frumpty would probably be it
[–] dontdoxxmebro 0 points 1 point 1 point (+1|-0) ago
That stinks. I really just wish all those obese fuckers could just go away or you know... Die faster!
