Hello,
I was wandering what your advice on this situation would be ... please roblem:
I do some part time work for my University, including working some open days. Generally they've always been pretty good at providing us with food / hot drinks etc, however there's recently been a change and I wanted to ask your opinions!
These shifts are generally 10hrs long and so we used to all get given food vouchers, where we would go to the canteen and buy our dinner, however to help overcrowding, queuing etc we are now provided with packed lunches, which consists of a sandwich, packet of crisps and a chocolate bar.
That's a lot of carbohydrates and obviously the chocolate is no use to me either, so I always end up sneaking to the canteen and buying myself food anyway.
So, I don't want to cause a fuss or anything, but I have been thinking of emailing in and asking that something be done, but the other week I was in the office when the staff were talking about another member of staff in another department who had requested to be given food vouchers again and they were basically slagging them off and ended up telling them they have to put up with the food provided or go hungry (or bring their own most probably). I don't believe the staff member had any specific issues with eating any of the food, he was just being picky, and I don't expect a massively negative response, but what would you do?
Thanks
