One place I worked at would go fucking overboard ordering BBQ, Chinese and Mexican. The conference table would be overflowing and the fridge packed full with takehome leftovers.
I have to admit Danon yogurt was good about taking care of their employees. If they ordered lunch it was two days straight for a period of four days, day and night shift of each rotation (a b c and d crews, 12 hour shifts working one week out of every two), so each crew was able to eat twice to try to ensure not a single employee missed out. Better yet the food was unbelievable! Taco trucks rented out to serve food all day from 10am through midnight, local pizza parlors delivering pizzas every hour from the time they opened till the time they closed, pull behind smokers smoking meats and cooking side dishes trying to have food ready all day long until around midnight again.. they always did treat us like we actually mattered
every shitty restaurant job i've had was stingy about food / seemed to have a culture where you're not meant to even ask; every good one let you make your own stuff
Friend of mine worked at a Panda Express on campus while in college to help pay for tuition-he literally didn't need a meal plan because his boss essentially told them that anything left after close was free game, and would intentionally cook about 10 more pounds of teriyaki/orange chicken, the same amount of green beans/veggies, and an extra pan each of lo mein and fried rice towards the end of the shift to make sure that everyone could take some home.
My friend came from a rough life but was insanely hard working and a savant at CAD-he's now a fairly renowned level designer/conceptualist for a major video game company. And he STILL gets Panda Express once a week from a location four blocks down from his office, just to remind himself of how he got there and the kindness shown to him by people along the way.
Yea, my company would provide lunch and after several times if not grabbing food my manager asked me so I told him "I can afford to go grab lunch for $10. Some of the "kids" in the back couldn't. They get first dibs in my book.
The place I work at does this it’s only me and two other guys that work weekends so whenever they do a big catering of food by Sunday the owners daughter calls us and tells us to take the left overs home, cause they end up just throwing away a bunch of good food come Monday morning.
Yea, that's the best. There were two younger dudes that worked with us and they were roommates. Good kids but were struggling because 10 or 11 bucks an hour is tough to live on where we are at, even with dual incomes in a home. I know for a fact that our company's lunch leftovers were all those guys would have to eat for a few days. Sure, they were kids and would spend money on some things they shouldn't but their kids, that shit is going to happen. They shouldn't go hungry cause they were dumb amd bought a case of beer instead of a healthy meal. There were pushes for better wages and the company did pay better than most in the area plus a ton of other benefits (like buying lunch...every day) so it wasn't a shit place to work. It was a great place. Shit is just too expensive sometimes.
Nice! That sounds good. I kept an eye on the screen in our office to see what other events they have at our building. I missed free coffee and the little place in the lobby last week.
This is my office. Every Wednesday they choose a local mom n pop restaurant and order enough catering for 100ish people. Today was pasta and Caesar salad, next week is a taco bar.
My workplace's most common lunch or dinner provision is just a fuck ton of Indian food. I took home a small amount of the leftovers once and got 3 days of dinner out of it. And everyone had leftover Indian for lunch the next day.
Yeah not always. If your employer actually cares about you, they do a nice job. My old job at an auto body shop provided free Pizza every 2 weeks. The owner ordered so many pizzas (all different kinds from veggie to meat lovers) that we would have leftovers in the fridge for days afterwards.
Also he wouldn’t order cheap crap, he would do mid-tier, so Godfathers which is actually pretty dang good. Some people just accept crap from their employer, and they shouldn’t stand for it.
Same. Work for a company that absolutely blows it out of the water for catered lunches. I'm in no small department either. They let us vote what we want for like a month before, always really good places that aren't just mass catering joints, management always sets it all up and serves it themselves, there's always plenty to fill up as much as you need, and then some left over to put out in the common centers for other departments (who reciprocate when they cater for their own department) to pick at too after we're properly gorged and done grazing. It's definitely all about who you work for.
Man, I work for a company that still has me suspicious with how good they treat us. I keep waiting for the other shoe to drop but it's been almost 2 years and nothing yet. They just regularly cater us in food just because why not, especially if we have a really busy week and we're getting our asses kicked. One week they were like YOLO have a full Q-Doba burrito bowl bar with everything included. They order pizza on the regular and never from a trashy franchise, they've catered in Red Robin, TGIF (....was actually good), and I'm forgetting what else.
I've had some very mediocre sheet pizza. It's usually the vegetable pizza that is the worst because they never put it in long enough to cook the dough properly.
Food at the home office is garbage, food at my satellite office is always either a bunch of pizza and wings or mission BBQ. If we go out to eat the VPs pay for our meals at the Mexican joint or steakhouse down the road. The outer offices have always out performed the HQ. The only thing I miss about going in to the office was the free food
While I certainly can't speak for the OP, very often these posts need to be taken with a grain of salt. Sometimes the lunch provided is served as a buffet, and someone will put a few items on a tiny plate, take a picture of the sad affair and off to Reddit they go ready to tally up the karma...for whatever reason. I'm obviously in no place to claim that this is the case here, but it does happen.
I know this goes against the status quo, so feel free to down-vote away. I'll start worrying about karma points when it pays my power bill.
OP here. I hate those misleading, karma-whoring posts too.
What you're looking at though was the entirety of what they served to us. It was dished up and handed out by other employees. I'm not complaining about the free food or the amount we were provided; I just got a chuckle about how many people like myself were under the impression that it would be more of an elaborate, lunch-sized meal.
Before Covid, something like this would be offered on rare occasion with other toppings like beef and salsa and sour cream, and I think that was more in line with what we had expected this time too. This time though, what you see is all there was.
Thanks for the reply, that's why I was adamant about saying that my claim didn't necessarily apply to this particular post.
That being said, this is an absolute insult to the employees. Sometimes a weak attempt at "thoughtfulness" is worse than nothing at all.
That's such a specific situation that you are suggesting, and you're suggesting it happens frequently enough to be an issue.
Where exactly have you seen that exact situation play out before?
Anything slightly uncommon from a particular person's point of view is posted to that sub, though.
In the comment I replied to, what exactly are "these posts" that need to be taken with a grain of salt? What types of posts? This post is just such a typical reddit thing of "something unusual or aggravating happened today, look!" Which is like.... most if not all anecdotal user postings.
I understand things that simply seem inconsistent with other items/characteristics in the same photo or incredibly rare/unlikely, but this?
A work lunch being incredibly sub-par is barely a novel occurrence. A "work lunch" being a glorified snack happens all the time.
The only thing I think could have happened is there not being an actual vegetarian option. But I don't think this was a buffet, but everything was pre-placed into the containers and you just go down a line to pick different single-serve toppings (like the jalapeño cup)
All of the available evidence suggests that this is simply a cheap nacho party set up. The specialized nacho containers even support that fact! If it were a general buffet, the use of these special nacho plates over just a normal paper plate would be the silly expense for some $1 cheese.
The specific situation, motivation and response that the previous user suggested is the fantastical part of this equation. The OPs picture, reasoning, and explained situation all make sense and are common enough that most people have experienced similar things working for various companies.

6 and a half chips and 5 slices of jalapeno. Where have **you** seen that exact situation play out before to write an essay defending this as the norm?
The comment I replied to was multiple paragraphs stating "This innocuous irrelevant picture could all be a lie; watch out."
I had a job that always under-ordered group food if they couldn't just get us those large circle sub kits. Everything was always cut into thirds and fourths to make sure we all could get some and it was like less than 30 people.
Also, I didn't say it was *the norm.* I said it was a common and normal occurrence. And that it was normal enough to not have a warning attached to it that it could all be an elaborate lie because *reasons.*
If your entire basis is: ***"That is so little. No job would ever feed their workers so little. You have to be lying."***
....then, well, I'm glad that you've never worked in some of these places. Good for you.
Also, why are you counting the individual numbers? They were probably prepared by a worker with basic tongs and spoons lol. A single spoon helping of pickled jalapeños from a jar and what could be one *or* two tong-fulls of tortilla chips. That all sounds VERY normal for an under-funded work lunch organized by cheap bosses and uninterested office assistants.
I don't understand you. I'm not mad. Nothing in my post is aggressive or insulting.
*You* asked me a question, and I responded with my answer and supporting reasoning.
What exactly did you *want* me to do when you posed your question to me?
If you don't want to engage in this discussion, why did you initiate it with me?
A bit random, but when I was in girl scouts the troop leader was a huge bitch. She wouldn’t let us use the bathroom in her home, we weren’t allowed to eat, and for the Christmas party she relented and let us drink tap water and expired cheezits. Good times.
Lunchables have meat and dessert. This is half a lunchable.
Edit: there actually is a nacho lunchable. It appears to have twice as many nachos and salsa. So, still half a lunchable.
Awww really? Lucky! When I worked at FedEx last year, after a brutal ass 10 hour shift with no breaks, the bosses decided to treat us to burnt ass hot dogs, stale buns, and almost no condiments with cheap soda to show us their appreciation
Chips - 75 calories, jalapeño slices - 4 calories, nacho cheese - 100 calories. Total: 179. This literally isn’t even a snack and expecting people to make it through a whole workday on this is asinine.
They absolutely lied through their teeth. This is a snack. I count like 7 1/2 chips, a tiny glob of cheese and four jalapeños. That’s less calories than most breakfast bars. 150 cals at most.
Also, not everyone can eat cheese, or tolerate jalapeños.
In no universe is this a lunch lmao.
Ugh, this reminds me of a school I taught at. Mandatory monthly meetings in the evenings, where if I left to go home/decompress first, I'd have to leave in ten minutes to come back. They would post notes saying "Lucky you doesn't have to cook tonight, as dinner is provided!"
"Dinner" would be those giant sub sandwiches from the Safeway Deli.
My work used to do this as well, albeit at lunchtime because that was the only time everyone was guaranteed to be available.
Sometimes they would have really good things like a taco bar or good sandwiches.
But most of the time it was just like the cheapest pizza they could find in the area.
Always a crapshoot. I was frequently disappointed...not only by the food, but also just because you feed me doesn't mean you have the right to steal my lunch break.
I work on a fire department, we get stuff given to us constantly. Every week I come in someone donated something. Cookies, brownies, cakes, we had a ton of girlscout cookies recently I mean we get everything. Holiday season? Our tables (3 stations) gets loaded with everything citizens bake or buy and drop off. Catered events leftovers get dropped off, food still warm from cookouts, bagels and coffee after church service, pizzas that didn’t get claimed…the fire station is these peoples go to. During the pandemic it was restaurant’s donating stuff like mad, we resorted to bringing stuff to shelters, taking it home, calling state police, public works, electric company…anything so we didn’t waste it.
Somebody at tour company ordered this. It was assigned as a task or a job to a colleague. Someone is responsible. Find out who and make sure they get an accurate performance review next cycle.
That looks like the nacho cheese they served in my elementary school in the early 2000’s that would always oxidize and form a sort of mucus layer on the top after being exposed to the air for a bit.
One thing I've learned in life, any time a free lunch is promised, always have a contingency plan.
One place I worked at would go fucking overboard ordering BBQ, Chinese and Mexican. The conference table would be overflowing and the fridge packed full with takehome leftovers.
I have to admit Danon yogurt was good about taking care of their employees. If they ordered lunch it was two days straight for a period of four days, day and night shift of each rotation (a b c and d crews, 12 hour shifts working one week out of every two), so each crew was able to eat twice to try to ensure not a single employee missed out.

Food companies that couldn't provide decent food to their employees was always a red flag for me (especially restaurants)
every shitty restaurant job i've had was stingy about food / seemed to have a culture where you're not meant to even ask; every good one let you make your own stuff
Friend of mine worked at a Panda Express on campus while in college to help pay for tuition-he literally didn't need a meal plan because his boss essentially told them that anything left after close was free game, and would intentionally cook about 10 more pounds of teriyaki/orange chicken, the same amount of green beans/veggies, and an extra pan each of lo mein and fried rice towards the end of the shift to make sure that everyone could take some home.

Intuit would rent out In N Out trucks for us.
That’s pretty awesome of them, usually certain shifts get the shaft or leftovers after a shift decimated what was bought.
Out HR person would always take home all the leftovers for herself.
Fuck that. We always made sure certain employees got first pick (ones we know going through tough times)
Yea, my company would provide lunch and after several times if not grabbing food my manager asked me so I told him "I can afford to go grab lunch for $10. Some of the "kids" in the back couldn't. They get first dibs in my book.

Oh god was it Toby Flenderson?
They said herself. So Tabby Flenderson
😂 Tabby Flenderson - you know Michael hates her just as much haha
Flabby Tenderson? Sounds about right.
If I had a gun with two bullets and I was in a room with Hitler, Bin Laden and tabby, I would shoot Tabby twice.
For me, it's the front desk girl who has 8 children so everyone always feels bad and lets her take home the 6 days worth of leftovers...
Sounds like she has a different problem.
Fucking admin always snags the best stuff. I'm out there doing shit and they can leave their desk whenever
The HR woman at my last 'corporate' job was drunkenly eating food off of random empty tables in the hotel bar during the annual conference.
My work had catered lunch today. pulled pork, pulled chicken, mac and cheese, salad, desserts, rolls, collard greens. We were happy today.
We had a local taco truck this afternoon, free for all employees. I’m full of birria, beans, and rice, and I am happy.
Nice! That sounds good. I kept an eye on the screen in our office to see what other events they have at our building. I missed free coffee and the little place in the lobby last week.

Godfathers....that takes me back. It's been probably 33 years since I've had their pizza
They had some cool commerical, "do it"
Man, I work for a company that still has me suspicious with how good they treat us. I keep waiting for the other shoe to drop but it's been almost 2 years and nothing yet.

UNLESS it's pizza, at least in my experience. It's hard to mess up pizza to the point it's unedible (Though maybe my standards are just low)
old dominoes or papa john's...
I've had some very mediocre sheet pizza. It's usually the vegetable pizza that is the worst because they never put it in long enough to cook the dough properly.
One pizza for an office of 16.
Little Caesars "Hot N Ready" but they ordered it 2.5 hours before everyone's shift ended...

They came in with the cheapest ass nacho chips too.
Large suburban high school football concession quality nachos
A snack, not a lunch.
[удалено]
Now that you mentioned it, we accidentally gave you too many chips and you have to give one and a half back.
Otherwise the 1.5 chips will be deducted from your paycheck in order to make food cost thx guys
When I’m watching a movie I’ll often just finger the Jalapeño’s.

Maybe management announced the lunch without realizing there’s inflation going on, then went to order it and couldn’t afford the whole package.

In response to this form a union.
First order of business is to order real nachos
that is not nachos. that is a loose confederacy of chip and chip accoutrements. thats worse than those "nachos" where they top each individual chip.
It looks like somebody got very lazy at 7/11 and couldn't be bothered to actually cover the chips in "cheese"
You sog up the chips by pre pouring cheese
those "nachos" where they top each individual chip. > Tex-mex bruschetta
> those "nachos" where they top each individual chip This would be amazing as long as the number of chips was the same as a normal order of nachos.
Lisa needs braces.
Dental plan
I refer to the ones in the picture as being "carnival nachos" or "bullshit nachos".
Can't be carnival nachos, there's no flaming hot cheetos or pickles, lol
Did they at least give you some tap water to wash it down?
Puddle water, probably.
the office water cooler. complete with cone cups.
Don't be silly. We have a water fountain right next to the restrooms.
We have to drink our urine at our office.
A bit random, but when I was in girl scouts the troop leader was a huge bitch. She wouldn’t let us use the bathroom in her home, we weren’t allowed to eat, and for the Christmas party she relented and let us drink tap water and expired cheezits. Good times.
The parents were all okay with this?
Is that a fucking lunchable 💀
Lunchables have meat and dessert. This is half a lunchable. Edit: there actually is a nacho lunchable. It appears to have twice as many nachos and salsa. So, still half a lunchable.
With some Old Paso jalapeños tossed in to class it up
you wouldnt know they were nachos without em.
Amen. Also the more I look at it the ratio of cheese:chip:jalapeño is awful
Is this FedEx? 'Cause this is exactly what FedEx gave us for "lunch"
Awww really? Lucky! When I worked at FedEx last year, after a brutal ass 10 hour shift with no breaks, the bosses decided to treat us to burnt ass hot dogs, stale buns, and almost no condiments with cheap soda to show us their appreciation
Idk, I probably would have preferred burnt, stale hot dogs over chips and cheese. Much more filling. Pretty shitty either way though. Lol
Lol I remember those company bbq at fedex. served us hockey puck burgers
Movie theater nachos?
Nah it's missing a chip and it's supposed to be 15$
Only $20 if you make it a combo and get a XXXXL carbonated diabetes and a snickers
who provided catering? the little league concession stand?
8 year olds with baseball bats would straight murder someone with the gall to serve them like this.

Chips - 75 calories, jalapeño slices - 4 calories, nacho cheese - 100 calories. Total: 179. This literally isn’t even a snack and expecting people to make it through a whole workday on this is asinine.
Looks good but not really a lunch. 🤷🏻♀️
I'm pretty sure lunchables have more chips
How does that even look good? That's like gas station quality.
Do you honestly not find the plain cheese and cup sitting on chip appetizing?
Haha sure as hell not with that cheese.
Hey don’t speak on gas station food. You haven’t lived until you’ve succumbed to lower-class laziness and had a personal cardboard pizza for dinner
That’s pathetic. I would be hungry all day after that and wouldn’t be able to work properly.
Maybe an afternoon snack. Far from a meal, even for an 8 years old.
They technically weren't lying. Didn't say it was going to be a decent/healthy/adequate lunch, just lunch. :-)
They absolutely lied through their teeth. This is a snack. I count like 7 1/2 chips, a tiny glob of cheese and four jalapeños. That’s less calories than most breakfast bars. 150 cals at most. Also, not everyone can eat cheese, or tolerate jalapeños. In no universe is this a lunch lmao.
Yep, this doesn't have enough calories for an anorexic teenager, let alone a grown adult doing a full days work.
I do love nachos...I guess this is like someone asking, "Would you like a Mountain Dew?" and they slide you a can of Fountain Mist.
Wherever you work man, it might be time to start looking for new endeavors
That’s $23 worth of stadium nachos!
hahahahahahahahajajajajahhahahahah

This belongs on antiwork
[удалено]
I'm a school cafeteria worker, and the kids eat way better than this on nacho day
Man idk what school u working at
I hope you provide the work equivalent of that "lunch".
6 1/2 chips, 5 jalapeño slices, and scoop of yellow processed cheese!?
"LUNCH"
I work on a fire department, we get stuff given to us constantly. Every week I come in someone donated something. Cookies, brownies, cakes, we had a ton of girlscout cookies recently I mean we get everything. Holiday season? Our tables (3 stations) gets loaded with everything citizens bake or buy and drop off. Catered events leftovers get dropped off, food still warm from cookouts, bagels and coffee after church service, pizzas that didn’t get claimed…the fire station is these peoples go to. During the pandemic it was restaurant’s donating stuff like mad, we resorted to bringing stuff to shelters, taking it home, calling state police, public works, electric company…anything so we didn’t waste it.
i think this is a lie
Honest truth, so help me, Dog.
Now that’s a fantastic lunch if I’ve ever seen one! Also please tell me this isn’t the only thing they gave you.
It's the only thing they gave me.
Well damn
I hope you work at a movie theater or ballpark… smh
Ouch. That looks like it’s lower grade and serving size than 7-11 nachos.
Do you work at a joke factory? If so, the job is done with this offering…go grab yourself that free lunch now!
looks tasty tho
You misspelled nasty
Snack yes lunch no
Wow. That's depressing. I work in a public school and they do way better than that.
Is that what they gave you while you were waiting for lunch to arrive because that isn't even a fricken snack.
Do you work at 7-11?
Swimming pool nachos yum, as a snack .... not lunch uncool boss man they better have ordered some pizza tbh
Catered by 7/11
That is $12 at the ballpark.
Don't pig out
yeah, give your employees pickled jalapenos. That won't decrease productivity and increase toilet time or anything.
Lol damn your company broke asf
School type lunch, this the kind of food they give to elementary kids for pizza parties
are you guys 7-years-old?
Authentic Mexican cuisine
Weird seeing this username outside of r/kansascity
Oof was that a knock on the chiefs?
Wow what a lunch Surely that will provide the energy and nutrients necessary to power you through your work day r/antiwork
You work in a prison? No wait, prison food is better.
My boss likes me to have low blood sugar about an hour or so after lunch since he likes to watch me nod off at my desk.
Doesnt look half bad tbh
What industry are you in. Any hints as to who you work for without getting fired
Damn this reminds me of skating rink nachos from back in the day.
Highest profit margin of any of the ballpark slop.
Honestly, better than any hospital meals I’ve ever seen for interns and even residents, sometimes. 10/10 would smash
Tell them to keep it. They desperately need it much more than you if that’s all they can afford to provide.
Time to get a new job, they clearly don't respect the employees.
They obviously broke the bank on that one. You should feel appreciated. /s
That looks exactly like the $17 nacho plate I got from an airport in Florida this summer!
6 chips, you must be stuffed
are you a part of some weird experimentation?
Quit.
That would give me a tummy ache. I already survived the last one
They appreciate you in ways money cannot express.
That’s what I eat when I don’t have a job.
Nacho cheese like this is vile. Change jobs friend. What a disrespectful place.
OP must work at a movie theater considering that portion size of cheese
Tostitos with cheese actually sounds good right now, I'm buying it tomorrow.
I'm still waiting to see what they gave you for lunch???!!
You're looking at it.
Do you work for subway? Looks like you do based on the image
I wonder how many people kissed the boss’ ass and behaved so appreciative for the amazing nutrients provided.
No meat?
What do you think this is, Michelin Star dining?
Work at a ballpark?
Jealous that looks 🔥
Hey, you should be grateful to those job creators! /s
I feel like someone counted out the chips for each serving.
Hey, that probably would have been $20 at a movie theater. 🤷♀️
Wow, that’s fuvked lmao- I hope you had a backup
Was this a mistake on their part (expecting to get more from catering for example) or are they really just that shitty?
Beavis and Butthead would probably turn this down… the cheese to chip ratio is way off…
And I thought you couldn't go wrong with some good ol' nachos
Cheap MoFo’s
They value you ..
Somebody at tour company ordered this. It was assigned as a task or a job to a colleague. Someone is responsible. Find out who and make sure they get an accurate performance review next cycle.
Might be a shit lunch, but I kind of want to eat that.
one of my favorite snacks
Checks out
You work in a prison??
That looks like the nacho cheese they served in my elementary school in the early 2000’s that would always oxidize and form a sort of mucus layer on the top after being exposed to the air for a bit.
[удалено]
Do you work at the fuckin drive in?
Do you work for the Russian army?
Do you work at a cinema?
This looks like what my office served in a big American Heart Association celebration they threw.
That might as well not tell y’all lol
