Good & Bad

[thewayne]

The good is that we're back to unrestricted hours working at school, as long as we keep 'em under 38 or 39.

The bad is the reason. There are two full-time employees, and two half-time (19 hour) employees. I'm one of the latter. One of the former was told by his doctor to take a week off. It seems that he has dangerously high levels of lipids and triglycerides, as in imminent heart attack levels of the two.

The thing that I find slightly unnerving is that he's two years younger than me! It's hard to believe that I have a healthy diet, but at least it's healthier than his. I've always had good blood work, the only bad thing is that my good cholesterol is on the low side. Maybe I should develop a taste for red wine.

A good part of it is genetics. Not trying to discourage your healthy eating habits though, just saying it probably isn't all cheeseburgers on your coworker's part. It's probably cheeseburgers + not enough exercise + susceptible genes.

And that I'm even talking about this is probably proof positive of my depressing middleagedness.
