I hate fat nurses. I have been lurking for a while, but I finally decided to create an account after this infuriating experience I had today. For some background... I am in my early 20s and I am a nurse. I have been working in the same clinic for the past two years. For some reason, a lot of nurses seem to be overweight or obese. My clinic is no exception. Me and one of our male nurses are the only ones who are normal size out of about 12 of us.  So anyways, I am lucky enough to share an office with a woman we'll call "Mary". Mary is 10 years my senior, about 40-50 pounds overweight, and a lazy fat ass. First off, Mary is constantly bitching about how much she hates working. She frequently mentions that she could quit any time she wanted to because her husband makes so much money. (He is actually fit and good looking. She was also hot when she married him, then got fat.) Secondly, she never stops complaining. She complains about patients, complains about paperwork, and even complains about having to get up and walk across the room to get something. And lastly, she is just fucking lazy. She sits on her phone during work hours browsing facebook and makes several trips each day to the vending machine to buy chocolate and Pepsi. She has been pissing me the fuck off for a while, but I usually just keep my mouth shut because I am not very assertive. (Call me a pussy, fine) So today, Mary was talking to some of the other nurses about how she feels so fat, she had to buy bigger scrubs, and she doesn't get why she is gaining weight. I am at my desk at the time just listening to the conversation. What I wanted to say was "you are fat because you go on ridiculous and expensive diets, give up after a week because you are tired/on your period/had a bad day/it's just to hard, and then go back to eating popeyes for lunch every day." But, I didn't say anything. Then, Mary says "I literally STARVE myself. I eat less than 1000 calories and see a personal trainer but I just can't lose any weight. It's not fair." This is when I finally chimed in. I said, choosing my words carefully so as not to upset the beast: "Mary, that just is not physically possible. If you were really eating less than 1000 calories and exercising you would be losing weight. Are you sure you aren't actually eating more than that?" This of course angered her. She replied "You just don't understand. You are young and you don't have any kids. Your metabolism is still fast. When you have babies your body changes and calories don't matter anymore. Your body CLINGS to the fat so you can't lose it. Talk to me about it in 10 years when you are fat too HA HA". Of course all of the fat nurses agreed with her., saying I "just don't get it" and I'll "learn someday". I argued a little more, now angry myself, saying "I will not be fat in 10 years. I am skinny because I watch what I eat. Your metabolism might slow down as you age, but not nearly to that extent." She continued spouting her fatlogic to me, now with the help of her friends, all of them giving more and more excuses... "we're too busy to work out, you don't have kids to take care of, you were eating pizza that one time omg if I ate pizza I would gain 30 pounds instantly see that's proof... yadda yadda". Anyways, I got fed up with the conversation and turned back to my computer, put in my headphones and finished up my work, fucking fuming inside. YEP!!!! THIS JUST IN GUYS!!! You don't get fat from eating excessive calories. NOPE!!! Your body just magically gets fat when you turn 30 then "clings to" that fat making it impossible to lose. How are you a FUCKING NURSE when you clearly have no knowledge of the human body? Fuck you, Mary. And yes, lets meet up in 10 years. They won't make scrubs big enough to cover your fat ass and you will surely be living off your rich, miserable husband. You are a piece of shit.
