This happens at my office all the time. They don't just order pizza for special celebrations. This is like a 2-3 times a week thing where they will order greasy take out... GAWD WHY MUST THE CO WORKERS DO THIS TO ME.
I stare at them with my leafy green salad while they gnaw on chicken fingers and fries. YAY ME0 -
This is what I've been bombarded with today - A coworkers last day is tomorrow so hooray, they are bringing in pizza..
Not that I won't make room for pizza in my diet, I do - often. I own a pizzeria, it happens. I just don't like things being forced on me.. what would you do? Fit the pizza into your day or bring your own lunch?

Owns pizzeria let's other's bring competitor pizza to her establishment.
OR
benefit of the doubt, lets OTHER pizza be brought to a place of business NOT her own, calling into question her need to work, the quality of her pizza and her marketing skills.

actually considering rejecting the brought in pizza.
Solution: Serve your Pizzeria's pizza. All the problems solved. Especially because you can then choose the ingredients and even bring one or one half topped with any number of vegetables you deem healthy. May I suggest Cauliflower and Kale?

Is this like a hazing or do they actually put you at gunpoint over the pizza? That's so weird.
Where I work, if you walk into the breakroom, three guys jump you from behind. They duct tape you to a chair, and one of the ladies clamps your testicles so tightly you scream out in pain. As soon as your mouth is open, they stuff food you don't want in your throat, and duct tape your mouth shut until you have to swallow it or you drownin your own saliva.
I don't go in the breakroom anymore.0 -
Ok, ham, pineapple and jalapenos please.
I'll take a large and expect my free pizza to be delivered with a smile.
And it better be hot or I'm sending it back.
Pineapples don't belong on a pizza.0 -
I work in a doctors office and we get rep lunches ALL THE TIME (even today :noway: ). We usually try to get something a little more healthy like soup and salad. Those days, I work it into my calories, on the pizza or pasta days, I just eat my own lunch.0

I'm glad I am not the only one who thought... "Why is she having pizza delivered to a pizzeria?" It just looks bad for the outside observer.0 -
It it's cheese or a veggie pizza, I'd be all over it :laugh: No one is forcing you to eat it and if for some reason you don't feel like pizza-then just bring your own lunch in. Really not that big of a deal.0
-
Is it a pizza place you would order from and take food home to eat? Is it something you really like?
If the answer to either of these is NO then don't eat it. I have 1 or 2 favorite pizza places in my city that I find worth it enough to make room for the food. Otherwise Domino's/Pizza Hut pizzas aren't my favorite and I'll save my cals.
So basically, are you doing it to be nice and go with the flow? Doing it because you feel like it's the right thing to do? Or doing it because you want to?0 -

They do. Oh yes, they do.0 -
I bring my lunch everyday. So I would just politely turn it down.
^^^ This is also what I do.
No one at work every seems to have a problem with it.0 -
If I wanted it, I'd fit it in. If not, I'd bring something else.0

Why for you hate pizza?
I pizza.0 -

Pineapple and banana peppers is also a splendid duo.0 -
bring your own lunch
that way you know what you a re eating and you know the exact calories to log them0 -
No such thing as free. There's always a cost, in this case it's in calories rather than dollars. Just like if you're talking money, 1) do you have the calories to spend 2) if so do you wish to spend them on that particular food? Easy breezy.0

I had home made pizza yesterday for lunch and dinner so I'd probably bring my lunch with me or, as someone else suggested, bring a veggie tray to enjoy and share. If I found myself wanting pizza I'd fit it in, but I wouldn't eat it just because everyone else was if I didn't want it.0

Actually...more to the point...if she works in a pizzeria...aren't her co-workers...
...ALWAYS bringing/making pizza?0 -
I think you need to look up the definition of "being forced"
Yeah, huh. Eat it and make it fit. Or don't, and be satisfied with whatever other choice you make. Then move on.
