I really have never been able to figure out why... but I have seen people get on it before. If I ever dare to get on it, it would be when people are not there! We have one in my workplace lounge.

What if there are people - particularly women - in the work group trying, for whatever reason, to keep/put weight <i>on</i>? @Amy –

If one showed up at work I'd be talking about it for sure. I'm not really known for keeping my thoughts to myself though lol. I like the idea of sneaking it into the male’s bathroom!

I never really questioned who put them there though. I always figured someone wanted to keep track. Then again, the places I've worked at there's always food around. Cake, bagels, lunch, candy. Maybe its a good idea. The last few places I have worked there have been scales in the ladies room. I never really questioned who put them there though. I always figured someone wanted to keep track.

PQ, I would love to hear that you will call one of your former co-workers, and convince him or her to move the scale to the Men's Room. I think it would be funny. Plus, aren't men more likely than women to weigh themselves in public, because they are less likely to have purchased their own scale? At gyms, the men were the only ones I ever saw weighing themselves. Plus, it's the men's turn to have the scale, anyway. @Peg – I have to agree with this one.

It totally sounds like something that would be in there in that era. I wonder if I've ever seen a scale in the ladies room on Mad Men. Hmmm.... Did you also work in the 1950s?
