    So everyone should have the chance to be given a physical? Who pays for that?

    Of course everyone is entitled to getting physicals.If companies pay for it then pay for the heavier ppl as well.As long as they can do the job then why discriminate.If you're say 50 or 75 lbs overweight not a big deal.America is the fattest country in the world anyways.I could see if he/she is obease but the laws we have and no other profession is very unfair.Like I said put officers under the same laws we have.Afterall they have the second most dangerous job.Many officers won't do a level 1 because they're too fat to bend down.

    Not to get off topic, but have you tried e-cigs to get off the smokes?

    Just a thought people, but cleaning your truck is a great way to burn calories, especially if you are doing things like polishing the tanks & wheels.

    Having a truck that is standing tall will also get you much less attention from DOT.

    I am not going to go through this entire thread to read about Fat people being mistreated. I chose my avatar as a Woolly Rhino. I spell it with only one L because of....not important. Anyway, as a Woolly Rhino, I am short, fat, poor eyesighted, hairy, bad tempered and HORNY. So, I feel I can speak to this issue.

    The company is named PRIME. Not USDA Choice. You can't be Prime without a high fat content. If anything Prime is one of the few companies that are proud to have fat people aboard. I would continue but all this prime talk has made me hungry.
     
    Roadmedic and pattyj Thank this.
