So, the work I do is outside all day long. It's not really labor intensive but it requires that one handle stress well and one will be exposed to all the elements in the course of their day. So a month ago a big fat new guy had an infarction. He was okay, but he no longer works for us. I was listening to a job interview going on and one of the questions the dude asked was if the applicant was a smoker, something our company does not tolerate and he was told we have a weight maximum of 275 lbs. basically you can not be a disgusting fat ass. I looked online and in the paper and they even said there is a 275 pound weight limit for prospective employees and smokers won't be considered anymore. I see the wisdom in both, but ain't they asking for trouble by adding those requirements?
