have you got nice food at work/school/college? (1 Viewer)

[Denny Oubidoux]

ive just had a very disheartening chicken and cabbage pie with manky roast spuds and carrots and turnips. every day that i go down to that stupid canteen they serve ganky stodge, today was worse though because the cashier dropped 20cents into my dinner and then punctured the crust on the pie with her finger while attempting to get it out again.

in my other job the food isnt too bad, and costs about the same as this muck.

We've a guy who comes in every lunchtime and sets up a stall on a table selling the blandest sammitches you ever ate. Oh and the worst muchroom soup you'll ever throw back up. Unsurprisingly most everyone brings in a lunch with them.

my school tuck shop sells boigaz at lunchtime. they introduced a veggie one but no one eats that cos it's cooked on the same tray as the others...
they sell lovely scones and chocolate milk. and lidls is right beside my school so my teeth are well on the way to rotsburg.

holy crap, i was at DKIT for 3 years until 2005. the food in the canteen was terrible i swear

i think if they had [insert food here] left over (even on plates) that they'd just serve it the next day

it was bad. it was always an election policy of people for student union but nothing ever changed

i guess student union presidents are like real politicians,,,,,

[pete]

answer: no

todays lunch = 1 x snickers, 1 x bag manhattan dry roasted peanuts, 1 x bag walkers fancy johnny foreigner flavoured crisps.

i'm off the coke though. not had a drop in 8 days.

byo food unfortunately at my place. there is a company called fude that deliver nice gourmet sangiches and salads, pastas... etc. quite nice

 

[ernesto]

ballyfermot has nowhere to go for lunch bar the chipper and spar & both are always populated by scumbag school-goers. the canteen in college does sausage rolls. and soup. and the usual confectionary. so, if you don't bring in food, you are fucked

 

[RSJ]

Nice tea tho, and free aswell.

Our company is only 100 people and the four lads who started the business are all millionares as a result, and we STILL have to pay e10 a month for tea out of our wages.

I have to pay €7 a month out of my wages for milk.
Despite the company I work for being a subsidiary of the fifth biggest bank in the world.

can you opt out of this payment and go without the tea/milk? the job with the chicken and cabbage pie is in a college so thats just the poxy canteen food - in the office theres always plenty free tea and instant coffee as well as a seemingly never-ending supply of chocolate biscuits. jacobs variety boxes - that kind of thing.

Yes, I could stop the standing order.
But I use the milk for cereal and coffee (don't have breakfast until I get to work) so.....

 

[Squiggle]

While I sympathise with all of you...

in my work have a kettle and one of those mini fridges... that's it.

We buy our own milk and coffee or tea. We have to provide or buy our own lunch. We are in the city centre so that isn't a problem but it is a bit of a pain not having a microwave. It would be handy for bringing in warm meals, soup etc.

do you work in reads photo copy place on nassau st? ive heard their staff facilities are appalling.

i have to buy my own meals too i just wish that for the money i would be served something tasty and that provided at least the illusion of nutrition.

 

[Squiggle]

No, but ironically I work just around the corner from it, on South Frederick Street.

I work for a charity so I guess I can't really complain too much. Thinking of buying a microwave for everyone for Christmas

 

[mackle]

In school the canteen is crap. No veggie options except Melon cocktail. And the meat stuff looks mank anyway. They sell nice Yoghurts though. Usually just bring my own lunch in rather than eat out of that place.

Works dire as well. We have a vending machine

Oops! well I dont think I need to explain meself any further here, could have happened to any of us...ahem.

 

[Doctor Muscles]

Only touch Jambons and Hot dog lattices out of my place.

Used to work in eircom, the canteen there did the ace-est brekky sandwiches ever.

 

[Franco]

I work from home.
