Office Foods

[Blue Smarties]

It takes the piss when people don't stick to the unwritten laws of office foods. I shit you not, it smells like someone is having a full on roast dinner for breakfast.

I'm going to be starving all morning now.

Bastards.

Does anyone else have to suffer heathens who don't stick to the unwritten code?

People bringing cake in. I don't want it or need it, but I'm compelled to eat it.

I put a toastie maker in our office kitchen, can't beat the smell of a cheese and onion toastie in the morning, feeling peckish now, might go and make one.

A lunchtime kebab (only once a week) used to down really nice, the moans I used to get ;)

Anything that makes you fart foul smelling air biscuits for everyone to chew on for the rest of the day.

Try being around a crew of mexican drywallers at lunch time, they bring their own microwaves and stink a job site up for weeks

A Mexican microwave! Cool.

I used to have a coworker who'd microwave fish. FISH! The whole floor would reek for hours. It was beyond inconsiderate; it was an assault on the nostrils! Honestly, it made mealtimes at my desk a truly grim experience.

Some fucking bump this

I've never worked in an office. I'd end up filling somebody in within a week.

We have 'Cheeseday Tuesday' at work where we all take it in turns to bring a selection of cheeses into work, and the standard 'donuts' for special occasions or fines for screwing up. It's really quite civilised.

That aside, anyone who cooks fish in an office microwave should be removed from the gene pool.

Cheeseday Tuesday

FFS, they can shove this Dr Seuss talk up their backsides.

I get messages saying “Happy Hump Day” or “It’s FriYay!”

I’m a fucking adult, talk to me like one.

Rant over!

I know. What were they thinking? Cheese on Taco Tuesday???

Next, it'll be salad on Wings Wednesday.

Probably just me but it triggers me. Work is for work, or talking about football. Nothing else. ;)

I remember my first job, where it was just blokes in the office. Everything ran smoothly.

Then I move to a new job with a mix of sexes and suddenly I have to join the birthday club, sign birthday cards and give money, bring cakes in on my own birthday (wtf?), eat the cakes that others bring in nearly every week. There’s no time for work left ;)

Another reason to wfh.

Going back to when you could smoke at your desk. Some guy used to bring a curry in from the night before. Always on a Wednesday. So I’m sat there trying to work and he’s eating a curry and smoking.

You can’t even fathom now how smoking at your desk was allowed.

I fucking hate my two days a week in the office. Not because of food law ignorers, but the noisy cunts talking about their new kitchen or what they had for tea, and cackling with laughter whilst I’m trying to read Bluemoon on my phone

I don't like the people there either

I risked my job and position to wfh , it’s paid off a couple years later, all the flexibility I want, I go in 1 or 2 days when I want and no one cares. So glad I basically took a gamble and gave them a ultimatum.
