Last week: Sign in break room that the Quick Trip near our business would be catering lunch next Friday (today) with their sandwiches and wraps. This is free to us because they rebuilt the Quick Trip to make it bigger/nicer with a kitchen and we are a small business.
Today around noon: Overhead pager announcement "The Quick Trip sandwiches have arrived in the break room! There is enough for one whole sandwich for each person!"
12:30 pm: I mosey in to inspect the sandwiches. I am fairly plain in my taste for instance I don't do lettuce, tomato, onions, sauces and shit. I like plain or with cheese and hot sauce. None of these look edible to me sadly. I settle on the Southwest Chipotle Wrap thinking I can fork some chick breast out for protein.
12:32 pm: I unwrap half the sandwich tortilla and find there is very little evidence of solid chicken breast w/ rib meat. There is a lot of 'slaw' and nasty white sauce. I fork a tiny chicken piece that is covered in crap and try to eat it. I have to spit it out and its gross. None of other sandwiches looked good so I guiltily threw it in the trash largely intact.
1:30 pm: I go into the break room to get more diet mountain dew from the 25 cent pop machine and notice to my surprise most of the sandwiches are still there. Normally when any kind of food is present it gets demolished quickly so I am surprised. I also realize most people like the crap I think is gross.
3:30 pm: Thank you emails are sent by one boss and accountant.
4:00 pm: An email saying please take one home with you if you want.
4:50 pm: A somewhat urgent message on the overhead pager: "Please take a sandwich! There are a lot in here!"
Does anyone like those sandwiches? I am talking about the cold ones that come in a plastic container. They were expensive according to the on plastic label. They wanted $4.50 for the one I tried.
