The horror

The remains from today's executive meeting catered lunch…after the office vultures converged; some salad, a ¾ carton of some type of soup and three pieces of sliced cheddar cheese. Dem bones have been picked clean.

I've bitched about this before, but it never fails to amaze me just how excited people become at the prospect of free food. It's as if they're POW's and the guards forgot to lock their cages and then left the dining hall unguarded. People practically run when word gets out about free vittles, and then they swarm , scoop up as many cookies, half sandwiches and bags of chips as they can carry before scurrying back to their cells, lest their captors discover them and administer a good caning.

Needless to say, I got squat. Though I'll bet that cheese would taste pretty good if I dipped it into the soup.

If someone comes by my cube row and says:

"There's food in the kitchen."

..you can bet that you're soon going to be swept up in a scene not unlike the wildebeest stampede in "The Lion King."

..still makes me cry...

Scar sucks.

I wonder if he managed to snag a bagel.

My daughter was traumatized by that scene for years!

I'm sure he went hungry.

Hmm So its not just the Copart crowd that was afflicted with that "Run to the food" syndrome huh?
