Lunch, Lolcats, and the Ladies Room

Tuesday, August 2nd, 2011

Today I came to work expecting a typical Tuesday, not too much excitement. However, much to my surprise it turned out to be Taco Tuesday! Not a new tradition, just a pleasant treat for employees. This may not sound like much to you, but little things like this get me just as excited as a school kid during a routine fire drill!

Most of you don’t know that we have a food service taco seasoning mix that’s used in school cafeterias, etc. Since we’ve recently revamped the packaging, we decided to cook up a batch.  So, around lunch time we threw on our sombreros  and headed down to the break room for a mini fiesta!

This was actually taken months ago, but I really love the expression here. She refers to this as her "Thinking Cap"

Celeste (pictured above) and I have been on diets so these tasty tacos were a much appreciated break from our usual, plain, low-fat turkey sandwich. (Ok, I’m kind of lying. She’s been on a diet and I pretend to be on one every now and then.)

 

Meet Shawn. He's pretty excited about Taco Tuesday, too!

 

On another and more pressing note, it was brought to our attention that SEVERAL of the MALE employees have been using the ladies restroom downstairs. Let me also mention that there is only ONE ladies restroom on this side of the plant and that the men take a long, long, long time in the bathroom and also, it’s just plain inappropriate.

Seems to be self explanatory....

Well, apparently it wasn’t clear enough so we came up with a subtle hint to remedy this problem.
