At my job, there is often some kind of food catered in for meetings. When the people having the meeting are done with the food, the admin emails the rest of the company so we can descend on the leftovers like vultures. Today I was about to make a turkey sandwich, but got an email: QDOBA LEFTOVERS.

Then I got to the break room and started assessing the available ingredients to put together a couple tacos, when I realized, there was no meat left .

Then I decided, ok fine, I will make some rice and bean tacos, because hey at least they’re still tacos.

I might have to go to the fridge later and eat a slice of turkey for extra brotein for my workout tonight.

UPDATE: The two rice and bean tacos above were insufficient lunch even for me in my current weight-cutting mode where I’m already not eating as much. I’ve also eaten a granola bar and an apple, and a couple handfuls of mixed nuts, but I’m still starving. Turkey time!

At my old job, I used to make absolutely no attempt to hide the fact that my lunch would be replaced once or twice a week by whatever someone left at our admin’s desk.

“Aren’t you having any babka?”

“I’ll wait until I come back from lunch.”

“Do you want to take a piece back to your desk now? Because this is my lunch and while I won’t take the whole thing, I won’t feel the slightest bit responsible if you come back and someone else has already eaten what was left.”

I’m no vegetarian, but I won’t dispute the quality of a good vegetarian meal. It’s because they all miss meat so much, they really have to up their game. And we omnivores can benefit.

I used to have a couple coworkers who would keep whey powder out on their desks in plain view. I always wondered if that was laziness or intimidation. Why not both?

When I have working lunches on my projects, or lunch meetings, I make sure I order more than enough food.

For a meeting with a total number of invites at 12, I order at least 16.

12 for the meeting invites

1 for my admin

1 for my field Coordinator (if he’s not part of that meeting)

Couple extras for others to eat.

Everyone is happy. More importantly everyone shows up to the meeting..;)

Qdoba > Chipotle

I’m pretty sure anyone who prefers Qdoba over Chipotle does so because they like queso.

Perhaps they dislike food poisoning.

Zing!

Off topic:

Not sure if you listen to Joe Rogan’s podcast but he had Dorian Yates on last week. It’s worth a listen just to hear him talk about the contrast between what he did and what people do now. 90's mass monsters vs today, etc.

Ah, I see you take your cilantro with a side of tacos.

Whenever I think about listening to a podcast I think that sitting down to listen to people talk, at length, is unappealing. I have listened to zero podcasts, ever.
