  • Small and thin is the future

    This one will amuse retail workhorse greatly. There is this guy at work. I shall call him K. He is constantly slating me for whatever reason. I think it may well be because I don’t just stand there and take the crap he dishes out.

    He was reading an old article about the macbook air (this was a while ago, before the air came out)

    K: “Small and thin is the future” says Steve Jobs, C.E.O. of Apple Computers. So there’s hope for Flea’s brain yet then

    I should point out at this point that K is not a small person. He is, by his own admission, Fat. He has been known to say “I’m not big boned, I’m Fat”. I am not. I’m 6ft tall and 15 stone. That weight is basically pure muscle (Workhorse, who has seen me, will be able to corroborate that) so I’m pretty thin, even though I am not exactly small

    ...I didn’t even need to think about this one

    Me: So, small and thin is the future?
    K: Thats what it says here
    Me: so... *runs his hand over his stomach to emphasise how it’s not bulging out at all* ...I’m the future, that means you’re obsolete

    Everyone around me laughed their arses off, even K, but he didn’t speak to me for the rest of my shift....Best 2 hours of my LIFE. The story very quickly left tech and spread around the store

    I do not mean any offense to people who are fat. 99.9% of fat people are just ordinary folk. It’s that 0.1% that are just ordinary arseholes. K fits into that percentage.

    Edit:

    Not "Shit" but "shift". sorry about that lol thanks for pointing that out to me emrld

                I thought that therein lay the obvious rejoinder...
