Cheers, all.
So the Lasses at the home site where I work tend to take a shine to me in a 'mascot' sort of way. I work in the yard with labor teams, keep things sorted for the Bosses and make sure the teams are respectful to 'em. I always go out of me way to have a smile for the ladies in the office and they get a rise out of my accent and checking out my bum - makes me smile. They've in the past done some nice things for me as well, such as a case of some sort of sparkling protein water drink which they'd been toying with as they're all overly concerned with their figures & they tend to like me to act as they're 'guinea pig' for new products & such. I don't mind, makes me smile.
This time, they've got a bloke who opened a new spa a few miles from the work site and who does something called 'Cool Sculpting'. He showed up on the work site yesterday, fliers in hand and talking fast to these ladies about how he'd 'freeze away their love handles' & some such bullox. The Lasses were of course taken, but after hearing how it hurts a bit they got timid. One of 'em came to get me from the yard and asked if I'd be willing to give it a go. The spa bloke read the room and immediately started focusing his pitch on me, how I'm the ideal candidate as I'm already lean (I wear a 33" waist at just shy of 1.9 meters tall) and how he'd do me for free and let the Lasses watch...
I've not yet had the chance to research this sham, and I told 'em straight away that if he comes at me with a knife or tries to put me under that I'd permanently damage 'im (the Lasses loved that) but he's in sales mode and all smiles. Said its some sort of suction attachment that 'ed clip to me waist and how it'd freeze any fat cells 'neath it which I'd then piss out afterwards.
Wanting to be a good sport, I said ye, the Lasses are all in a buzz now and we're supposed to go to his place in a week after hours.
WTF have I signed on for exactly? I'm expecting this to be another 'avocado toast' type trend that comes on an fizzles out with no real impact. Anyone heard of this thing before? Fookin' ell...
