Lady hawking protein powder at Sam's club asked my HUSBAND if he worked out but didn't ask me. HELLO? Who's the cardio bunny around here and who's the weight liftER? Yeah. He's an endurance mountain biker. I lift weights.

    It's sad that that is all it took to offend you with everything else going on in the world. Maybe she was flirting with your hubby.

    You don't have guns or a sense of humor, do you?

    She probably subscribes to the theory that women would simply be overcome by the vapors if they saw a muscle on their bodies. :laugh:

    Oh and her line was cheesy. We had all 3 kids with us and she said something like "Hey Dad, find time to work out to keep up with all those kids?". There's 3, not "all those". And yeah, he said "no".

    That's because you look toned and not bulky.

    I expressed my offense to him and he tried to cover for her saying "Well, I just look like I workout" cue dirty look "well, um, you do too..."

    My husband IS pretty stacked for an "endurance athlete" though. I might be slightly jealous but I'm not complaining.

    Nah. You caught me. That's 20 years of lifting and 15 years of biking, with doing the biking exclusively only within the last year. Seriously hasn't touched a weight in a year.

    I understand. Two years ago at a certain not to be named tax preparation service, the much older gentleman doing our taxes made some very big mistakes based on assumptions. He added the alimony that we pay out, into our income and then left out a disabled vet credit. After going home and doing the taxes again with one of those computer programs because I could not believe the numbers, I called back to talk to him and ask him not to file the taxes, too late. Long story short, this guys assumptions are still costing me money, so much for that guarantee. If he had just asked, I would have told him no I do not get alimony, he pays it out and no he is not the disabled vet, I am.
    It still pisses me off. I now go to an independent CPA.
  • Holy crap, you two are both buff! O_O
    She should have just included both of you in her little goofy sales pitch (but at least she tried, a few of the sample associates at my store hardly acknowledge you).

    That is like the time we went to buy cell phones and I would ask the cell phone dude a question and he would answer my husband. Finally my husband was like "She is the one who knows what she is talking about, not me."

    Ew, she was definitely just hitting on your husband which is just wrong! I am sure if it was just you there with the kids she would have asked you a million questions!
