Guest Posted November 25, 2005 Share Posted November 25, 2005 Originally posted by willman dont get your point. you cant take abstract situations and expect them all to be the same. what would you think to visiting a solicitors office & seeing ketchup stains on the deeds for your house. quite simple. Mcdonalds is a restaurant. staff need somewhere to eat their lunch. 2+2=4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BoroughGal Posted November 25, 2005 Share Posted November 25, 2005 The not eating at your desk thing is to prevent spillages into keyboards, I think. They tried to bring it in at our work for that reason, but working shifts, and being tied to your desk, it just wasn't going to work. But I imagine in other jobs, it's quite fair. Especially if you have a canteen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They can;'t dictate to them what they eat. so they let the use the restaurant and are not petty enough to ban their staff eating from other fast food outlets dear God Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
