Some coward posted an anonymous comment on my LJ and then removed it before I could respond to it, so I thought I'd post it here so that anyone who has inclination to could mock and deride this person. Hey, seems fair, yes?

(My journal, my rules: if you agree with this cowardly fuckwit, keep it to yourself.)

Hi,

I was just skimming and skimming through the MD board and I found your
post-- you said you weren't posting there anymore and I figured i would
respond to what you said...

Now, goodness it has been a while-- but still here is what I think.

Lots of times people make excuses for their size.

The truth as an expert sees it should not offend-- unless of course the
expert is wrong.

Being fat will lead you to dying earlier and a host of health problems.

I am completely anti-fat.

I don't respect people who do not take responsibility for their health
and I wouldn't hire them.

I guess that makes me a bigot... like most of American society.

I would probably consider that if changing the door or the floor wasn't going to be a huge issue structurally, an issue with the landlords of the building, too much time or cost for my own company, etc. If it meant that there would be issues, I would have to explain to the person as kindly as possible that I needed to look for another applicant. This person might be very well qualified for the job, but that doesn't guarantee that I have all of the ability, money, or resources to change certain situations. It would be one of those unpleasant "sorry this is how life is sometimes" kind of situations.
