Someone also had a recipe for home made protein bars that other member said was good. Might want to look that up. |

Order smelly/messy take out every day until they change the rule.
Even air traffic controllers get to eat. |

or is this voluntary?
I had a job once where they told me that I could schedule a lunch and two 15 min breaks when ever I wanted to... and I told them I would take it all at the beginning and end of my work day so i could sleep in and leave early...

How long was the work day? I can't work 8 hours without a respite in there. You must be very focused.

#12 Posted: 5/7/2012 10:55:19 PM Some rules were designed to be ignored. This sounds like one of them.
Are they hazing you or something? |

#14 Posted: 5/7/2012 11:04:24 PM Apples are healthy and filling but not as much fun as making a mockery of this ridiculous rule and grow tomatoes in the office or something. |

#15 Posted: 5/8/2012 4:57:05 PM Tuna fish is smelly.
Leave bottles of soy sauce in the conference room while at it.
This thread is ridiculous. |

it's a new job, and i can bring food
I'm using this job as a filler between careers but this is like a sweatshop, the job is easy but theres so much to do it's BS and the two weeks training ended up being 3 days
so i make allot of mistakes and get half my work done, with no breaks of any kind, my manager says going to the bathroom is a break, a real behind but he did give me a job. this is for only 2,3 months max (i pray) I've got a killer job lined up but paperwork and testing is taking forever, if nothing else i am losing weight |

In that case........ start pissing on plants in the office while at it.
How old is your Manager?..... like 14? |

#20 Posted: 5/9/2012 12:10:04 AM Has your Manager ever Managed anything before?
The dude won't be a Manager in two weeks. Ride it out and you will get promoted. |

#22 Posted: 5/9/2012 12:13:51 AM "Bathroom breaks are breaks?"
In that case start negotiating.......
Seriously....... tell him you don't need a "bathroom" break and pee in a cup and stick on the conference table. And then say you want to trade your "bathroom" break for a "nutrition" break" |

#23 Posted: 5/9/2012 12:16:27 AM Even Day Laborers get to eat and go to the bathroom.
What kind of operation is this?
Are you in China or something? |
