Sure - except 2/3 of what you're saying you eat (Power Bars and Clif Bars) have more calories, more carbs, and more sodium than a snickers bar.
Before you were recommending TWO Snickers. After I compared the labels and proved that my combo is better than your combo, you're now recommending ONE Snickers.
I suggest you stop talking out of your ass and stop giving nutritional advice to fat people.
Because one of the best ways to lose weight and keep it off is to build muscle by doing weight-bearing exercises.
Been there, done that. Over ten years ago, I lifted weights for a year and went from 325 pounds to 375 pounds. Considering how hard it was to find 4XL shirts, I stopped lifting weights, switched to cardio, dropped to 350 pounds, and went back to 2XL shirts. I still have the muscle mass. That's why I look like a football player and not a butterball. Prior to that I rode my bike 20 miles a day for three years to get a restaurant job.
From there, it's a short stretch to imagine that the Cheetos vending machine in your office has your finger prints (and other, nastier secretions) all over it.
From there you go back to your stereotype of fat people. How stupid can you be?
Swatting asshats, as you call them, down to size will get you attention.
"Swatting" is when you call the police to send over the SWAT team in a prank call to disrupt someone's life. You can think about doing it but I wouldn't recommend doing it.
I read a study after the dot com bust that the IT industry will have a shortage of skilled workers as baby boomers retire and foreign workers go home by 2030. That's when I decided to go back to school to learn computer programming and got into IT support. I'm looking forward to making money in the next 30 years.
But everywhere I've worked a 3 year stint is on the low side.
From my experience in tech, it takes two years to learn every aspect of a job and then another year to do that job exceptionally well. As the three-year mark approaches, I start looking for my next mountain to climb. I was a video game tester for three years and a lead video game tester for three years at the same company. Some jobs I left on my own and others I got laid off at the three-year mark.
I wouldn't say that's common, but it's not rare either.
My father worked for three generations of bricklayers over 50 years. Those days are long gone.
Anybody that makes you be an asshole, or they won't do their job, is themselves a raging, festering, prolapsed asshole.
Sometimes you have to be an asshole on purpose to get things done. Especially if a user files an "urgent" ticket and tells you to come back after lunch that would cause the "urgent" ticket to fall out of SLA.. When I worked helpdesk and desktop support, I had the best SLA rate (98.8%) in the department because I didn't tolerate that kind of nonsense.
If _every_ boss (assuming your not 18) you've ever had was an asshole, that's you.
The only asshole boss that I ever had lied about his numbers, committed multiple labor violations when he could, and rode the company into bankruptcy before he got fired.
Not where I work. I've worked places where people got let go for no other reason than being an asshole. (naturally, that isn't how it was worded to them, but everyone knows that that is the real reason).
Assholes that everyone hates should be fired. Assholes who get the job done should be lauded.
Before the Great Recession, I changed jobs every three years by either staying at the same company or leaving for another company. After the Great Recession, I took whatever job that came my way that lasted anywhere from four hours to years. I'm currently halfway through a five-year contract. Someone leaving at the three-year mark seems normal to me.
I worked at company where the supervisors installed remote desktop viewing program. One morning my supervisor came running over to explain that it was against policy to view Amazon on company time. That is until he saw that I had a breakfast burrito in hand and I told him to bugger off. It wasn't against policy to browse the Internet during breaks. The work around that everyone came up with was to buy PDA's to tap into the open Wi-Fi access point from the business next door and browse the Internet on our devices. The supervisor were happy because web browsing dropped significantly and workers were being more productive.
I've never had an IP agreement with a company that claimed work done off duty.
I worked at a company that tried to take ownership of all past copyrights, trademarks and inventions unrelated to the company under a new IP agreement. That caused a big uproar as everyone was a creative person in some way. More than a few had their own IP attorney and most threaten to quit. HR had to step in to get legal to go back to the previous IP agreement.
Advertising is a crazy business, you need to attract people to your product/service without pissing them off, and it is very easy to step over that line.
Pissing off asshats on Slashdot has led to a significant increase of traffic to my personal blog and other websites. I'm on track to earn an extra $75+ in ad revenues for this month.
Casey Neistat had a video on why asshats tease those who have passion to change their lives. Haters and doubters fear successful people. Nothing is more worse than a successful fat person.
Unless your family is known for living a long time, you're dreaming.
You have to take medical advances into consideration. People are outliving their retirement funds because they're living longer and healthier lives than their relatives.

bahaha. learned to code in school.
Maintaining a 4.0GPA while taking two classes per semester, working 60+ hours as a lead video game tester and teaching Sunday school.
you are a special kind of stupid arent you?
At least I know how to capitalize my sentences.

If that's your definition of low-carb, you'd be better off eating two snicker's bars, then. Snickers bars have fewer calories, and fewer carbs.
Let's compare the labels.
Snicker's Bar (2x): 500 calories, 24g total fat, 9g sat fat, 54g sugars, 240mg sodium.
Cliff Bar/Fiber One: 390 calories, 9.5g total fat, 3.5g sat fat, 30g sugars, 270mg sodium.
The Cliff Bar/Fiber One combo has fewer calories, fewer total fat, fewer saturated fat, fewer sugars but more salt than a pair of Snickers.
Then, go do something that keeps you active for at least an hour a day, and try to work in a half hour of weightlifting three or four days a week.
I want to get slimmer, not bigger.
Sitting on your ass in the basement waiting for scripts to run doesn't qualify [...]
My second-story office has a view that overlooks a roofline.

[...] no matter HOW long a walk it is to the vending machines.
Why would I buy food out of the vending machine? That's a waste of money.

Is it possible to keep one's karma high while pissing people off?
I've been on Slashdot since 1999. I got so much karma that it'll take me years to piss away.

What if the asshole everyone hates is the one getting the job done?
They either go into management or get shot in the back.

As an obese person, no one cares what I think. (transfat).
This is Slashdot. You must be new here.
If you're in IT, you better be an asshole or nothing will ever get done.

Dude, 150 grams/day is NOT a low-carb diet.
Low-carb diets are between 50 to 150 grams of carbs per day. The average person eats 225 to 325 grams of carbs per day.
http://healthyeating.sfgate.com/150-carbs-per-day-still-considered-low-carb-7754.html
Your mileage may vary, but if you're on Slashdot I'm guessing you're not dong manual labor all day. ;)
Pushing a trackball all day is hard work. ;).

I told recruiter after recruiter I left because there was too many women there. Everyone of them understood, including the female recruiters.
I've seen marketing departments with all women staff implode from the infighting. Not a pretty sight.

I don't care what all the old timers say. This place still has it.
I haven't been abused like this since... 1999.
You're as addicted to carbs and sugar as any other fat-fuck, and you're fooling yourself into thinking those are 'healthier';
I'm on a low-carb diet. I eat ~150 grams of carbs per day. Two bars a day is less than half my carbs for the day.
Just give up and shovel down whole pizzas and boxes of cookies at a time, you know you want to!
Why would I want eat like a skinny person?
[...] an insufferable twat who antagonized everybody in the class.
I'm a teddy bear in real life. An asshole on the job but I wouldn't be working in IT if I wasn't.
Trust me - nobody has any sexual fantasies about your hairy, sweaty, cheese-coated flaps of fat.
Sorry, I don't fit your stereotype. I've been subjected to sexual harassment from both men and women because of my weight.
Or maybe you're fat and proud?
I ordered a three-month supply of Cliff Bars, Power Bars and Fiber One bars. Not everything a fat person eat is unhealthy.
