Counting the Step

Thursday, November 17th, 2005

Yesterday, we had a benefits fair at work. All the benefits providers displayed their wares and answered questions about the benefits their companies offer. Of course, in addition to all the pamphlets explaining their services, the representatives bring along massive quantities of quality tchotchkes. Our insurance provider has, for the last two years, given away step counters. Current fitness theory holds that you should walk at least 10,000 steps a day.

I was going to write something terribly witty about the instructions that came with this year’s step counter. However, nothing I can come up with can possibly be funnier than the actual document. I’ll just show it to you instead. (Click the image to view the full-size version.)
