So..
Yesterday, I was fired from my job, because I was too fat to fit into the overalls needed. After a brief conversation with the manager, I was told that in the future, the company would look at expanding the range of overalls they provided to cover bigger and smaller people.
I have no issues with the way I was let go, though several of my friends think I should be kicking up much more of a fuss. Health and Safety regulations mean that I am required to wear protective clothes so I don't injure myself, or contaminate any produce.
It got me thinking though, has anyone else been let go because of their size. Or are there maybe some well known 'big people friendly' career options I'm not looking into?
