PoulC's Journal, 30 Nov 16

Under 192 again! Amazing what a little physical activity can do for you. So yesterday I took a brisk 25 walk in the morning and then at lunch I went up and down and to and from the six stairways in the turbine buildings (I work in a power plant) and the office building. Each stairway has 68 steps. I went a total of 578 steps up and 578 steps down and my pedometer logged 2931 steps total. I had to run an errand for my wife yesterday, so I couldn't go to the gym after work.

Today since it is supposed to be in the mid 80's I did the turbine building stairs in the morning for 30 minutes and did a couple more uppie-downies than yesterday.

So, do I feel the least bit guilty about doing my walk-abouts on company time? Hell no! I put in plenty of extra hours and typically bring a lunch and eat at my desk while continuing to work. Besides all the smokers waste way more time at the designated smoking locations several times a day and they aren't exactly doing anything to improve their health, which costs the company money in the long run in healthcare costs and lost productivity. Rationalization complete. The end.

I think the company would prefer employees who think about their health and are becoming healthier......less down time, sick leave, etc. even if it is on company time so long as you are productive. Puffing and chit-chatting on company time is WAY worse and is a lose lose for the employee and the employer.
