Yep, was just thinking, that workplace cafeterias where I have worked, were a good alternative for a quick lunch, if you didn’t bring lunch.

Otherwise I would bring lunch from home most days, and buy the cafeteria food sometimes.

I would not have gone out to fast food or sit down restaurants if there had not been an on site cafeteria.

I don’t know how people who make these policies think. They assume that everybody will go to local eating places if there’s no onsite cafeteria, as opposed to bringing lunch?

Eating out gets expensive if you do that all the time. I suspect many will bring lunch rather than go to the local eating places.

Never underestimate the leftist mind. If bringing lunch became predominant, then the SF supervisors would bring forth a regulation that would prohibit home prepared food in the workplace in the guise that is was unsanitary or some such rationale.

Actually, I think the people who thought this up feel the same way as you. However, they need election donations, and by doing the bidding of the local Commerce group, they will get some donations.

How it messes up the workers life is really small potatoes to them.

I used to do some work with IBM in Rochester, MN, and their cafeteria (which was huge) was the equivalent of any restaurant, better than most.

And the principle even more so. If they're so delusional they think they can tell me where I'm "allowed" to eat lunch, doing everthing I can to make sure they don't get whatever it is they want is a moral obligation.
