Co-Workers Can Make it Difficult!

I work in a cubicle environment, and sometimes, my co-workers drive me nuts with their food.

I try to be so good, bring somewhat healthy food from home, trying to avoid going out for fast food or to the vending machines. Like today, I had a SlimFast bar for breakfast, a cup of applesauce for a snack, and about a cup of steak and a cup of rice/broccoli leftover from last night for lunch. I feel about hungry enough to chew off my arm! And somebody in here just made popcorn; man does it smell good!

We've got people who make bacon in the morning (that smells really good, too!), or bring in boxes of doughnuts, coffee cake, etc, and make it a point of stopping at each and every desk to offer some.

I know I've got to try to ignore what's going on around me, but at times like this (remember the fresh popcorn?), it sure is hard!

Anyone besides me think that tone of voice was just a little familiar? Maybe I am imagining things...

Hey your lucky. Some of the Butt-heads where I work try to force feed me $hit.


I told them "You can have mine". Or I just leave the room.


Ahhhhh, don't get me started on this!

Well, I have to put up with that BS at home too! My mom used to be all "You need to lose weight!" Now it's like "Just have a pice of cake! It won't hurt you sara!!" I'm like "MOM! STOP FORCE FEEDING ME!"

LOL.. It's stressful, esp. now that I work at a restaurant too and all they do it eat, in school all we do is eat, and then I come home and mom tries to make me eat crap too.
