I worked at a university health clinic once, in the pharmacy. I had interaction with the students, of course. At the time I weighed 100 pounds or less. I lost some weight while there to get to that point, eventually started to gain back, and then started losing again. I lost that job within about 4 months. It was because of absenteeism due to needing to take off hours for sick kids, food stamps/public aid appointments, and lawyer appointments for the divorce. I really think because of how the other staff was with me, that my weight issues were also a part of it. I figure the head doctor there probably complained that I might be a bad influence on the students, or something. I don't interact in person with the public at my new job, so I don't think my issues would do as much with work unless I miss alot of work or do some major screwups. I tend to have more energy when I don't eat. More anxiety, too.
