There are few things more dispiriting than corporate food—the food they serve you at corporate functions, meetings, conventions, retreats, seminars, team-building exercises. You know the events and you know the food. Both are about as unpleasant as a root canal: Necessary, at times, but not at all fun, and undignified in their own pointed way.
Don't people have a mini-fridge in their room? Maybe even a microwave? Bring food from home: a bowl of hardboiled eggs, some good fresh fruit, crusty bread, real butter, real cheese, olives, homemade banana bread..... couple of chocolate bars...... nuts.... but I guess you'd have to eat in your room and that's dismal, too, and frowned upon by your bosses, probably.
Haha this is great! I will say, however, as a child of the 70s and 80s this kind of corporate food is far better than what I had to eat in school and college that was prepared by ARA! ARA used to provide all the “institutional” food, like for public schools, universities, hospitals, and prisons. Going through the line at the college dining hall to get ARA food really made you feel like you had something in common with New York’s inmates 😄 So nowadays when I’m eating corporate food it doesn’t bother me because I spent so much time eating worse! 🤢😂
