Yes, it’s going to be a rant.  Sorry to start off with one so early on.  lol  But it’s just such a big issue!

Mealtime at the stations.  We have 5 manned stations in our district and hubby is rarely ever at the station he’s assigned to.  We assume he won’t be since he’s number 2 to move when someone calls in sick or classtimes need to be covered.  It’s just life until he’s been there longer and even then it’s how it will be for the most part.

But since joining the department the weight gain has not been healthy and it has to do with the horrible eating habits they have.  Most days out of the month they eat like it’s a special occasion.  The first year on it was steaks almost every shift!  I am not exagerating.  The weight gain was totally unhealthy and now we have to work on it.

Tonight was the final straw.  I asked him around lunch time what they’d planned for dinner or if he wanted me to drop some food by.  He said he was eating with the guys.  K, sounds good, but I asked what they planned on.  I didn’t get a response back on what they were eating, just got asked suggestions.  I’m home making dinner for the three of us and he’s texting me they still haven’t made any decisions.  It was 5:45 at this point.  You know that means if they don’t eat now they are dooming themselves to fast food cause they will get slammed with calls.  lol

They decided everyone was on their own just after 6.  Are you kidding me?  I was so glad that there was still turkey taco meat there from last shift and hubby was able to make a taco salad.

I told him this was the last straw.  We will meal plan out the rest of the month now.  It’s healthier and cheaper for all of us anyway.
