Fat nurses. You know what really grinds my gears? Fat nurses.  They go through several years of training, undeniably featuring lots of information regarding how to look after your body properly and the effects of failing to do so.  And yet they can't remain at a healthy weight. Why? Apparently they all work long shifts, covering a large hospital, and barely have enough time to eat.  Don't get me wrong, I hugely admire anyone in the medical profession when they are doing their job properly, they deserve better recognition and pay.  But -  Why would you go through all that training to become the product of something you should be actively avoiding. You are not practicing what you preach. Imagine going to an appointment with a personal stylist, and being greeted by an unkempt person with terrible clothes, bad personal hygiene and an unflattering haircut. What if they told you 'I absolutely believe that a person should look their best and look after their appearance and I'm great at picking out clothes, but I just choose to ignore my own advice'. Would you trust them to do a good job in picking an outfit for you?  Or, alternatively, what if you wanted perfect pearly whites. You go to a dentist with terrible veneers. 'I know their supposed to be white and straight, but I personally made mine yellow and wonky because I don't believe that I NEED to practice what I preach'. It wouldnt take long to haul ass out of that dentist would it? Why the fuck are nurses any different.  I have had to go to hospital once or twice and stay overnight blah blah you don't need the details. But I'm a healthy person, not a whale. I'm very slender, and always bought my own food (mostly nuts, dried fruit, water etc) and always follow medical advice to get out ASAP.  E. V. E. R. Y. S. I. N. G. L. E   nurse I spoke to was overweight, by a lot. Like borderline obese, if not already obese.  And every.single.one. had to give me a lecture about how I should 'eat healthy' after my stay and make sure I do enough exercise. I asked one of them what they eat and how often they exercise and I was met with a death glare.  Like, fuck you? You are a tub of lard barely making it through one shift 'cause your knees hurt, you are red in the face just from changing a bed and you are giving me lessons on healthy eating and exercise... Both of which I clearly practice regularly. Evidenced by my lack of gunt and bingo wings.  Fucking infuriating. Like why are they allowed to work in medical fields if they can't even restrain themselves and be healthy people?  Let's put it plainly - I would not trust any of the nurses I saw to run at speed to fetch someone emergency insulin. I would not trust them to perform proper CPR without their stamina falling. Need a baby delivered? Slim nurse please.  Its one of the reasons I have a fear of anyone close to me needing emergency medical care.  Rant over, you beautiful shitlords.
