One reason I can't get any fatter - the desks at school are too damn small. Well at least the ones in the Murchie Science Building (UM-Flint).I don’t think this is just a weight/size issue because not only are they too small, they are uncomfortable. There is not enough room for a book and a notepad, or a book and laptop, or a laptop and some notes, let alone all three. And they make my butt hurt – not good.
Apparently they are having some problems with this in Britain:
If they are having that problem over there imagine it over here where 65% of the population is overweight and obese. We need bigger and more comfortable desks people!! Before I started working out I was afraid one day I would come in and not be able to fit in the desks anymore and have to sit at the ‘fat desk’ or handicap desk. Yikes! Usually each classroom in MSB has one desk that is not the traditional student desk. Embarrassing! I suppose I am exaggerating my size because I have seen bigger people than me fit into the desks. Still I worry. I can so see myself either (A) tipping over a desk trying to get out of it, or (B) getting up from the desk and it just hanging onto my butt shelf and moving with me, HA HA.
I would agree with you on the fact that the desks in the MSB are way too small. It's hard for me to fit both a textbook and a notebook on those desks.
ReplyDeleteOh, you are so completely right! I have such a hard time putting my notebook and book on my desk. That just doesn't make any sense for a desk at school... I have to put things on top of each other and then I get confused on what is what. Not good Flint.
ReplyDeleteWell I would not know as I have never had a class there.
ReplyDeleteOh it is bad over there.
