what do you do for a living?

I know.
When you measure someone for a bra, you're required to wrap a measuring tape around the top of their ribcage (just below the breasts) and also in the middle of the breasts, the point which is largest in diameter.
Sometimes I can't get my arms around the customers. It's mildly inconvenient.

wow.... do you get hazard pay??


i think i would wrap that measuring tape around my neck...

I'm assuming you missed the post about some of her clientele? :lol:

I thought that the cup was related to the RATIO of breast/chest. So a 5000 lb woman could technically have A bra.

But I digress...

Part of my job description is fitting obese women for bras.
Did you know they made 50DDD?
I didn't.
Until now.

On second thought, I would prefer being a Teddy Bear maker... Ones which wear shades and make cool sounds when you squeeze them.

It is. You measure the diameter of right below the ribcage, and then the the diameter of right on the nipple (middle of the breasts). You subtract the first number from the second to get the cup size, and the band size is the first number.
Every inch = 1 cup size. So if the first diameter = 24 inches and the 2nd = 30, the person's bra size is 24DDD... (A, B, C, D, DD, DDD)
So you're right, a 5000lb woman could technically wear an A cup.

What's really annoying and disturbing is when in order to measure the diameter around the middle of the nipple area, the woman has to..hold herself up because otherwise it wouldn't be mathematically accurate, if you know what I mean D:

Oh congratulations Adam, you know the most about breasts...

Lol, they're called Milk-Chan toys.

chalk that up on the list of things i never thought i would know...right next to the difference between shampoo and conditioner.

Talking about Ratio, I have some Maths H/W related to that... I can't be bothered...

TC, you're everywhere I post now. :lol:

I sit on my butt all day at school.
Sit on my butt on the computer, and also play Wii games.
Terribly cold out now, so not much to do in the way of fun outside, other then road hockey

All of which I don't get paid for.

He needed to know that when he got measured for his bro (aka, manssiere).

How the heck could you avoid a conversation about bras like that!?
