The long suffering Mrs. Walrus whips up a storm in the kitchen [yet only when the sun falls]. She is my favorite "dab hand" in the kitchen.
Actually she is NOW in for the F1... I was trying for her to get me Paddock tickets. Guanxi, use the guanxi!
Bring on the booze bus!
But as this was about eating in the office... lets get back on thread shall we lads and lasses... |

That was pretty tough man, however did you warn her about your office rules? or she was challenging u? |

My husband has free meal at the company canteen, but he can not eat it, because the msg they use here in all food!
So, I cook pasta at night then he takes for lunch next day, or lasanha, or some beef snitzel (don't know the spell, we call it beef a la milanese),or pastel (a kind of dumpling that I make at home, so I know what meat is inside).He doesn't like rice...And sometimes sandwiches with ham, arugula (I make it fresh in the morning, so the salad inside is still nice), or pork meat or even chicken meat...
They have a microwave in the office, so some food he heated when it needs...Where he works there is nothing around... |

bullfeces its tough - she knew the rules! Everyone in this office - myself included agrees that the common rule here is no food or smoking - a rule built on respect for your co-workers. Therefore if another manager or assistant breaks the rule - they must be told their actions are wrong. All she had to do was say "OK", go outside and have her burger; she didnt though..instead she threw a sissy fit and tossed the burger in the bin like a spoilt child.
Anyways... needless to say no-one else eats in here anymore. |

Well if she knew the rules...no excuses. No offense but you could have reminded her rules, when she graabed her burger without "Outside-NOW!", she got the shits as u mentioned above. no wonder why no ones eats in there anmore |

I was a little lazy and busy with my new school some days ago, but now I'm thinking about what to cook for the next week, cause this week is not here...
So, monday will be lasanha, tuesday, pasta bolognesa,wednesday,beef,and so on...
It's easy when we know what to cook...sometimes I just have no ideas, because some food can not be heated on microwaves, they don't taste good after... |

Irene, you just sell pizza or others meals??? you could make a lot of money selling meals to offices...
Ok, not meals, but snaks like sandwiches, cheese balls, fingerfoods that are tasties...
In Brazil is commom to see young boys with a big basket full of snacks and small cakes selling them in front of offices and buildings.
It's easier for workers, so they don't have to go out, and it's cheaper than eat in a restaurant! |

I think that if you agreed with some rule, you have to respect it...
But if the rule is there and you don't agree, do what you think is right,and wait for the
consequences...
There is a lot of rules in this world that I don't agree with.But sometimes we need to obey or it will have a price that we don't want to
pay for... |

If you want to sell food, first, let people have a free sample.I,e: Make small sandwiches (just one bite),put pasta in a small plactic cup (like coffee cups) with a toothpick then go near offices or buildings that you know can have a lot of potencial customers.Give them the samples and your card and menu with prices...
After few days, if they really liked your food, they will order, because they already know the food and the taste...
But it has to be good, or they will never go for you... |
