i really hate it when they think someone who weighs 300+ pounds (no comments on fat, I am indeed big boned! - just ask Snape, she is one of the few to have the privildge of seeing a pic of me - dammit, give me my cheesy poofs!) can be OK with a chair that is only rated to hold 200 pounds?????
Granted, I didn't realize the chair they bought me when I was hired was only able to support that amount. I only found it out after as I am sitting coding, a hear a creak, then a crack, and then I end up on the floor with the shaft of the chair attached to the wheels leaving a mark up the right side of my body and a nice bruise under my right arm, with my ass and the remaining part of the chair on the floor.
Amazing how many people came running to find out what the reason was for the huge thud (It knocked a clock off the wall in the neighboring office, and caused his coffe to spill out of the cup with it sitting on his desk)!!! [img]smile.gif[/img]
I knew I should have worked from home today!!

Yeah, I guess that is the American way, Chaser!
Although I am sure they are going to look on it as that it is my fault for not informing them my ass was so heavy [img]wink.gif[/img]
