A humourous workout today....

I had to get the oil changed in my car today- I do it at the dealership where i bought it since its free...I decided since I had to wait anyway, I may as well take advantage of the free time and the vast space...I speed walked around the dealership- its a huge one, so there were plenty of long lines of cars.

I was so proud of myself for utilizing 'dead' time with excercise,until I realized I was being followed by salesmen trying to keep up with me....:laugh: they thought I was shopping. There I was in my workout gear, giant sweatshirt, headphones, tennies and not a purse in sight, walking waaayyy too fast to even glance at the cars...but they thought I was shopping:noway: . I explained to one of them, no, I'm waiting for service dept. killing time with excercise...he laughed and retreated to their standing corner...I assumed he would alert the others that I was not shopping, but nope...six more times, I discovered car salesmen chasing after me, trying to get my interest in a car.
When I was done, the entire service department was laughing and enjoying the scene...the customers and the service dept staff said it was more than obvious what I was doing- I wasnt the first to get that idea...

When I was leaving it occurred to me that I didnt see a single person out there looking, nor in the showroom- no wonder they got so excited to see an actual person...

I guess the diet and exercise are working out for you then, huh? (Since you got chased by a half dozen men today) :laugh:

I like your idea, though, and kudos for your dedication!
