16 servings of cheap pilsner last night? Attracted to a 6” seafood sandwich you saw being ordered and need someone to talk to? Feel like something pasta-y, but not exactly? This is what terrorizes our nation’s workers every day. It is ever-present, in the back of our minds--riding on the train, up the elevator, in that meeting. But these are simply facets of the one great question. The answer to which must be provided before we can ever grasp contentment. What’s for lunch?

Brown bag. Made pepper steak last night. Looking very forward to it!
Let's get in on this!!!

Rico,
No sour cream?
CSR,
Go healthy for a pre game lunch. Get a salad.
Myself I am a blank slate today. Semi-hangover, but not too bad. I may do a salad myself. A taco salad would be perfect.
There are a lot of people who feel that way about SC. So foreign to me. I can't imagine a burrito without it. I would feel so empty.
What about mayo, Rico?
SOUR CREAM RULES!
Miracle Whip!!??! Which red state are you from?
If you are eating outside (or anywhere) and a fly/bug briefly lands on your food, do you still eat it?
Without question, hesitation or qualms, I eat it.
Of course you eat fly food, its still good, same with dropped food. The "3 second rule" is the way to go.
I had an awesome lunch, mongolian bbq style that I didn't even know existed here in China town. You pick your ingredients, they grill it up and hand it back to you.
The grossest thing I could think to eat (that involves accepted food products) would be to take a stick a margarine and dunk it in a vat of mayo, then take a huge bite.
Does that make anyone feel sick?
A couple of co-workers asked me if I wanted to go to lunch with just as I finished my pepper steak. I went along anyway. Didn't eat anything. Enjoyed the fellowship, though. Was that lunch? What is lunch? Blows my mind.
I asked the gal at the counter if they had any desserts. She said no and wasn’t very pleasant. So I asked her if they had key lime pie.
Ah, Rico - I just got back from burrito brothers where I asked them for a burrito filled almost entirely with sour cream. The rest was rounded out with a little rice and some beans. I would have typed a comment sooner, but cleaning up the sour cream off my face, hands and arms took a long time.
Ethics just outed herself as a WOMAN!
Did the sour cream get on your chest?
For all you mayo haters - I accidentally discovered how amazing corn on the cob tastes with both butter and a little mayo. Delicious. Though, actually taking a bite of a stick of butter is pretty gross.
I'm a boy. A boy who eats lunch.
A heated mayo/butter concoction is great for dipping artichoke in.
Exellent point, jo. I'm off to get another burrito. Then I'm going to draw myself a bath of sour cream, and eat my burrito in there.
In Mexico they serve corn on the cob slathered in mayo, squeezed lime and chili powder. Or if you want they'll cut it off the cob and put it in a cup mixed in with a big glob of the mayo and the other stuff. While living there I ate it frequently, until I got deathly ill and spent 24 hours sitting on the toilet. That was the end of the mayo slathered corn cobs for me.
Watchdog - you've vindicated me! The people I'd previously shared this wonderous concoction would have been less horrified if I had told them I was eating babies! I'm goin' to Mexico!
That Mexican Corn Mayo thing sounds delicious. I need to tell Mrs. Josephus to perpare that for the Josephus family. Josephus Jr. loves corn, mayo and Mexicans.
There's a Mrs. Josephus and a Josephus Jr.? You've been very busy Josephus.
Mexicans are cool. Another thing you can there is a fair market price on electrocution. They have guys who walk around the bars with a car battery hanging from their neck and two metal nodes. For a small fee (US $1), they'll let you hold on to the nodes and get shocked. What a country....
Watchdog you sure know alot about Mexico!
In response to Dipso's earlier inquiry, Lunch is: A meal eaten at midday. or The food provided for a midday meal.
Since you didn't eat during the excursion, you didn't have a second lunch.
But even if I just go to the bank and then go buys socks, they still make me sign out for "lunch."
Anybody else have to sign out sign in for lunch, or have their lunch hours tracked in any way?
No.
Do you work in East Berlin Dipso?
No signing in or out of any required for Watchdog, Mr. Dipso.
Thought we're not paid for lunch, so the standard day is actually 8 hours and 45 minutes, with the 45 minutes set aside for lunch. Though actual lunch times vary widely, today was an hour and a half.
Does anybody else receive an "occurrence" for being tardy or calling in sick?
Does anybody else, once they've accumulated five tardy or sick day "occurrences," receive a "VERBAL warning" that comes the form of a WRITTEN memo?
Once again Dipso I have to ask if you work in East Berlin or perhaps for Walmart. Your CEO (or Executive Director) must be a real tyrant. An evil unbalanced person.
Is that the case?
Hey Dipso, does your office also have a "time-out" area for bad little workers? Recess priviledges revoked? or *gasp* blog access restricted?
I'm at home today because I don't really feel well. I said I'd be working though. I'm now watching the Life Aquatic...
So no, not so much with the signing in and out or "occurences". Though, our office manager is a bit of tyrant, but I ignore her.
Nice. Saw Seu Jorge, or rather heard him, for a few minutes at Borders the other day. Free show for the International Music Fest.
