THAT'S what I've always needed in my room! I KNEW it was always lacking something!









Oh, and of course some better video game display shelves. But I'll cross that bridge when I get to it.

Ticked - Chickfila is banned at my office since the trainer does not like the political environment surrounding it. To the extent that we were told to not bring it in or we will be written up (they came through and took my buffalo sauces out of my desk from them). And it was supposed to cater lunch today...

Smiled - Since this is his choice and not the companies, everyone in the office filed complaints with corporate HR against him. We finally got off of the crappy bagel/sandwich company catering everything and now we are back to the crappy company.

Wow, no matter one's feelings on the matter, that's a total dick move to make up a stupid policy like that steal stuff from your desk.

Wow that sucks, it sounds more like he is using his political position or disagreement with chick fila and extending it to the work environment. What company do you work for?

:lol:

You have to wonder if the trainer has a family member that runs the bagel/sandwich company.

If you wanted to have some fun, you could report their condiment-confiscating behavior. I bet it'd play well in the press.

He does not have family at the bagel company, he hates it aswell, but since it is cheap they order it. Instead of reporting it to the press I told him that he has until I get in tomorrow to replace the sauces at my desk or I am reporting him for theft. I made sure to wait until the RVP was within range to hear it too.
