Fats have the uncanny ability to destroy small businesses. Small business usually have a limit on how many staff they can hire or have going at any period of time. The moment a fat enters that small work-force it becomes a cancer to the entire operation. Where I work I keep face palming when they hire fats. There were three at the front desk, two are gone, and the third is pretty close to being fired. The "Small-fat" they hired to my department is either going to end up fired, or drive myself and another to quit and work elsewhere. It's always the same shit. They show up when-ever they feel like usually 10 to 30 minutes late. They are the first to come down sick (and often) and usually end up being the seed that gets other sick. They never cover for other people and yet always end up needing their own shift covered. They almost always end up trying to turn people against each other to distract from their own failures at their job. Others have to pull their slack while they always try to undermine the reputation of others. It's always a crap-shoot. It's small wonder places don't want to hire them. When it's all you have in a pool of applicants though it becomes frustrating.
