This is perfectly acceptable. I wish I could still bring lunch, but my school schedule doesn't allow it. I need to invest in an ice chest or something :|

Our vendors used to do those lunch and learn things. It really didn't work well since all of the people who make the decisions on their products were out on jobsites and the lunch and learn was in our main office. The only people that went were the "large" women who worked in payroll/AP/human resources.

It's off Olson, across from the post office in Rancho.
Also across the street from Mervyns and Golden 1. If you come up Folsom, take a left on Olson and it'll be up on your left about 200 feet, if you're coming on 50, get off at Zinfandel, go rightm, take the first right onto Olson, then follow it as it wraps around to the left. Superb will be on your right as you round the corner.

Yeah I could see where that is a problem. All our Admin staff always sneaks in a get food, but don't stay for the lunch. Good thing the admin staff is all hot so they are allowed to eat.

You need to convince the vendors that you make the approving decisions on buying whatever it is that they are selling. That way they'll try and grease the wheels a bit by getting you drunk on work time
