Soon to ban bringing your own lunch, and then making your own dinner at home.

I bring mine, dine in my office, and tune out for a bit.

Eventually, I will get burned out and go the local establishment.

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.

“Soon to ban bringing your own lunch, and then making your own dinner at home.”
Doesn’t go far enough. Maybe the supreme court could rule that a law requiring employees to actually buy lunch at a local restaurant is really a tax and therefore constitutional. Maybe we could force them to include a minimum number of healthy items too. Hey, it’s all for the children (somehow).

Well, if you can mandate you purchase insurance, why not mandate you have to buy lunch. Hell, tie the systems together, so that what you buy for lunch immediately impacts your insurance premium, and whatever the status of your health mandates what you can purchase for meals, too. Depending on if they want you to live (liberal) or die (conservative).
