A few of us went to a meeting at a partner agency this morning and this is what was waiting for us. Sugar cookies, focaccia bread sandwiches and fruit salad (not pictured because I actually ate some of that).
I was struck by a couple things. First, we kick ass when it comes to food and booze for meetings. Yes, when the crumbs get passed down to the unwashed and are met with a group attack mentality, things can get ugly, but for the actual meeting-goers the food is usually top quality. While my coworkers seemed to especially like the sugar cookies, going back for seconds in fact, the sandwiches were panned, hard.
Also, there we're maybe 50 people at this meeting. What you see is what we got. A tray of cookies, a couple trays of sandwich slices and a bowl of fruit. I know it's odd for me to complain about food I didn't eat, but come on. Man up and show your partner agencies a little love. Soggy sandwiches and cookies isn't going to cut it.
