Man vs. Machine

I work in a secure technological environment on F.A.A. controlled land/airspace. To enter this place is like entering a fortress. The walls of my building are 2 foot thick and have been designed to withstand a direct hit from a 747. To actually enter the grounds you have to use an identification badge this badge is waved before a magnetic eye and you are then supposed to step into a chamber. In this chamber you will be weighed and if your weight is over/under 20 pounds +/- you will be denied access.

I have noticed that changed happen when you hit 30. I no longer carry around at 180 pounds or so. Slowly The weight inched up and I filled out taking on what I shall be as a man. No biggy, it isn't too bad yet. I put off exercise and eat as much as I want enjoying life as it comes.

Today I go on into work liek nothing in the world is wrong. Do my job and when my time is up I leave telling god a brief thank you as I head out the door. As per normal I walk clear across the complex and swipe my badge and enter the chamber. BUZZ BUZZ ,I hear..WTF? I look at the LCD display that usually has a sign. Holy Shit No way!!! Mother fucker!!! I exit back the way I came, and try the other chamber. BUZZ BUZZ... Arrrrrrrrgh! With great trepidation I glance at the little green screen one last time....

OVERWEIGHT!
OVERWEIGHT!
SEE SECURITY NOW!

Almost in tears I make my way across the complex get to the security department and tell them that it is giving me a weight error. I get a few smiles from the ladies. The guy starts asking all kinds of lame ass questions... Do you take your laptop or luggage through the door?...

Ok Smartass...I reply impatiently....Look I gained weight just reset the sum bitch!... Now I am the chuckle of the day and have to test the front weight lock to make sure it resets properly.

As I walk back by security one of the ladies shouts out....You didn't gain anymore on your way out of the Lock did you hun?

Yeah BitchFuck you too....

What a bitch it is to be getting old... Mother Fucker!

Needless to say I passed this next go around not happily mind you, not happily.

Don't sweat the small stuff- the women were just happy to see it happen to a man for a change! As long as Dr. Phil isn't asking you to appear via tv because you can't fit out your door, you're fine!
