Does This Booth Make My Bum Look Big?

I could easily do this job in less than a minute. Question - "Am I fat?" Answer- "Yes" or "No". Obviously I'm joking (no, I'm not!) but what will they come up with next? Dentist in a bus stop? Chiropractor in a car park? I suppose this at least brings a service to the people when they are unlikely to go to a clinic for a test.

That's a very skinny booth. Maybe they just see if you can fit in it - if not, you failed the test.
I like Chuck's suggestion. :-)

I eat like a pig and stay slim naturally. There again I am a veggie. What I object to is the attitudes slowly building up. Looking after your health is one thing, but inflicting this on some one in a very bullish manner is intimidating. I think we should actually be equally as concerned if not more, about the attitdes of model agencies and the media reards anorexia and body shape.

What I find fascinating is the crossed-arm stance of the booth staffer. Do you really think she's wants to be doing what she's doing or is the guy she's talking to being a prat or what?

For my part, I've got about 35 lbs I need to lose. Must get out and exercise more.

Can't make up my mind whether to make a witty comment or say nowt!

One minute? Do they just get your weight and see how you fare in a BMI chart?

I remember how they measured us for body fat back in college — calipers snapping at you all over then we had to get in a pool and float while attached to a scale. That was tedious! All that just to be told that I had normal fat for a female. !!!

I wonder what they were doing to test you in one minute? I think I'd skip that booth!! :)

Maybe they get you to stand on one of those fat monitors. I don't like them, they always tell me my % fat and it's never good news!

Same here. I can tell you if you are fat or not in 2 seconds.

If you tip well enough, the answer will be more to your liking.

Hmm, what an unrewarding job. She certainly aint enjoying it. Why do you need someone to say the obvious? You are or your not. Dentist in a bus stop I think a better deal.
