I'm feeling resentful about the stupidest work issue.

Since late last year, for one week every two months, our office hosts a week of meetings. During that week, we're asked to not eat in the kitchen, but to eat at our desks or in a separate conference...

So it is only one week out of every eight and that one week is when they are having clients in or something?

Re: I'm feeling resentful about the stupidest work issue.

Right, one week out of every eight with outside visitors. It didn't sound like much when they first talked about it. I've only been in the office for one week of it, and didn't like it. Next one...

Can you go have lunch outside of the building? Maybe find a spot outside instead and go with some co-workers? Idk...doesn't really seem like a big deal to me but I guess it would be slightly annoying.

It seems like they have an understandable reason if people are sort of loud and the meeting rooms are somewhat near the kitchens. I would just suck it up for a week or, like Random said, maybe find...

Yeah you are really overreacting.

Re: I'm feeling resentful about the stupidest work issue.

It's only for one week every two months. That's a non-issue. Don't complain about it to your co-workers. Keep it to yourself...or to message boards, lol. You'll get use to it. You should read "Who...

Yeah this is definitely not a big deal and maybe you will grow to like some things about it. You can't go out for lunch? That was always my favorite part of the work day.

I don't think the OP is saying she has a legitimate complaint, though. She acknowledges that she's being silly.

Re: I'm feeling resentful about the stupidest work issue.

Thanks Fuzzies, yes I know I'm being silly. That's not always enough to shut up my inner whiner, though. I had lunch in the extra conference room today, which went fine. It just makes me nervous...

Re: I'm feeling resentful about the stupidest work issue.

That would be quite annoying. We have something like that happen in my office but we're allowed to use our kitchen (which I don't understand why you can't..are the people in the meetings using it?)...

I don't want to be that person who says "at least you have a job!" but seriously, be thankful that there are meetings going on because I'm sure that means good things are happening for your company.

Ok, my advice for you is don't eat tuna during that week.

OhMan is recommending that she take a "scenery break". By going out to lunch.

That would annoy me a little bit too at first but I think I would learn to enjoy a change of routine.

Re: I'm feeling resentful about the stupidest work issue.

How many work partners do you have? Like those that you would normally trouble-shoot with? Could you maybe plan a brief coffee break in the extra room or (what I used to call) non-smoking smoke break...

Re: I'm feeling resentful about the stupidest work issue.

It's silly, but i'm sure since you're living it it's probably an annoyance. Just suck it up though, you have a job, a nice one where you sit at a desk inside and comfortable, eating at your desk for a...
