That'd be why the petrol was so cheap...

I had this brief encounter at a service station before I was heading off to teach my RPM class for the evening.



* Marshmallow walks into service station to pay for petrol
Service Station GuyHi there.
MarshmallowHi there, the petrol on pump 3 thanks.
Service Station GuyHow was your day?
MarshmallowYeah it was pretty good thanks. How about yourself?
Service Station GuyGood, yes. Would you like a carwash?
MarshmallowNo, just the petrol thanks
Service Station GuyOkay. How was your day?
Marshmallow... uh... it was good.
Service Station GuyYou going home from work now?
MarshmallowNo, I'm going to the gym first.
Service Station GuyI see, you want to reduce your weight?
MarshmallowNo, I'm just going to improve my fitness.
* Service Station guy starts to laugh
Service Station GuyYou don't want to reduce your weight? You should!!!
Marshmallow...
* Service Station guy stops laughing
Service Station GuySo did you have a good day?

Yeah, I wouldn't be giving life advice to anyone if I was the petrol station dude. Bet HIS life is really going places.

I really like your blog style. Keep up the good work!

Sara - Yep, I don't think I envy that guy at all.

Diandra - Oh I encounter dimwits like this dud all the time.

Kek - I think either he attempts to give life advice because the only other line of conversation he has is asking how everyone's day is ;)

Sham - Thank you! :D

I can think of so many rude things I would have said to this guy. I get this kind of crap all too often. Sicne September, I have been working out consistently and changing the way I eat. I have lost 50 pounds and I feel so much better. A coworker asked me if I was on a diet and I told her that I was not, I was just changing the way I handle hunger and food. Her response? "A diet would help you more." Um...really?

Natalie - Oh good grief. 'a diet would help you more', fercrissake. *infinite headdesk* Worst advice ever! Did you slap your coworker? Congratulations on the progress you've made so far!
