BMI and number of dumps during work

    If anybody knows me they know 2 things.

    1 I work in construction
    2 BMI is my life

    I build hotels but my overtime is usual small jobs like a quick changing around of things in shops or peoples houses.

    I usually pick a team for these jobs. The boss probably thinks I do it based off people skills or how much they have on this week or their need for overtime. To tell you the truth it’s none of these.

    I can calculate a fellas BMI by looking at him. If you look spot on you will get the overtime before the fella below or under the score. It’s made me very successful in life over the years. My teams always hit deadlines and show up when they should. There is no weak immune systems in my overtime ecosystem.

    So what’s the point in the thread. Well these stupid summer holidays. With my usual go to guys being on holidays I’m having to drain the BMI pool and take chances on lads who are a bit rotund or a bit hungry looking.
    Now apart from them being tired come 9 o clock in the evening when normally my usually team are only getting their second wind I have noticed how much time they spend on the Jax. I had one fella this evening hit the big twice in 3 hours.

    Surely it couldn’t be due to BMI. I empty the tank every day around 5. Done and dusted. I’ve started to notice these same lads nip off to the Jax during the day too it never dawned on me.

    Is your BMI out of kilter?
    Can you be trusted to man your post or are you going to need a toilet break?

    Some of these lads would have great dexa scores but that’s no good to me.

    It's the OP's "Bum to Mouth Index", if OP thinks he would put his mouth to your bum and rim, you're hired!

    Nah, it's his Back Me In ratio. The more likely you are to guide him to love lane, the more likely you are to get the nod.

    I have one cr@p a day in the morning and that's it

    Yep I’ve done very well over the last year and been quite lucky with people playing musical chairs in the building game at the moment due to the wages rising again. Also I never miss days.

    I’ve recently moved from plumbing (my trade) to air con to being the boss of mechanical sides of operations when the boss isn’t there. I run a lot of small jobs for the boss out of hours now too. Usually sit in the van on my phone for a lot of these.

    Funny thing is there is a lot of people that know a lot more than me at both these trades and I’ve very little clue about ducting but they don’t seem to ever go anywhere more than being daytime jobbers having the same level of responsibility as they did when they got qualified.

    I'm only small, but regular! Plenty of fruit is the key, slides out like an otter down a riverbank ;)

    It’s not a BMI index it’s a body mass index.

    You just called it a body mass index index. Haha you’d be surprised how often that happens.

    Right so. Kind of forgot where I was going with this really but, well, you're silly and the things you're saying are silly too.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,194 ✭✭✭Conservatory

    Yeah I have to be serious a lot of the time now. Watch what I say and all that ****e. So on boards I can have a bit of a laugh and a joke and sometimes find out if my views on BMI are correct or ask people about how to sort my kitchen ceiling out. It might need replastering or it might not. I actually came on here to get opinions on that but never bothered.

    If you seen me in work you’d say “god I bet that guy measures every single calorie he eats” but you would never say “I bet that’s that conservatory guy always being silly”

    It can slide from 21.7 to 21.75 depending on how crazy I have been.

    It can slide from 21.7 to 21.75 depending on how crazy I have been.

    so the higher side of the normal scale of 18.5 to 25.

    would you not consider lowering it a bit?
