Don’t take that stuff for granted! I always did, but now my new office has nothing. I bring my own plastic silverware and napkins to hide in my desk. It’s totally a first world problem, but i do miss the delicious agency coffee choices. And the snacks.

Uh, be thankful for free food. I swear, sometimes I wonder if people in this industry have ever worked outside of it. We are so damn spoiled compared to so many people. Most folks don’t have coffee bars, or real bars, or snack bars in their offices. Sorry, end rant

This convo is hilarious. But it’s not true we don’t have healthy snacks. OP took a picture only of the chips and cereal when to her right is fresh fruit, yogurt, carrots, and hummus. A few steps away: almonds, almond milk, soy milk, all kinds of organic teas, coffee. And you can buy anything you want from the farmers market. We have happy hour every Thursday and breakfast (usually bagels, croissants, and an array of muffins) every Monday. That doesn’t include all of the free food from all-agency meetings and client meetings. Paint a real, balanced picture. Stop focusing on a perceived negative. You’re responsible for what you put in your body. And if you wouldn’t call someone an “idiot” to their face, don’t do it here just bc someone has a different opinion. I usually find name callers never have enough guts to call their bosses “idiots”.

Yeah, we get it OP. But it’s stupid. We’re super sorry that your employer is providing you with free junk food on top of the healthy options 🙄 I get it, agencies love to portray themselves in an unrealistic way, but you’re being petty. We’re not idiots, we were just pointing out that you’re bitching about something you shouldn’t be bitching about. You’re welcome for the perspective.

The point is there are no healthy options or anything else mentioned in that article. It’s not the reality. It’s fraud. Fake and misleading. Thank you for the talking to Account Supervisor. You are truly not the pits.
