BBC in hot water.

It seems the BBC have spent just short of £84,000 on tea and coffee since November 2019 until October 2020. I thought they would have had less staff in the offices during this time. How much do they spend when all the work force is in? Takes the biscuit. Perhaps a few of those have been thrown in as well.

I once served as a liaison between a voluntary organisation and a large company, I had to attend board meetings. They served very nice buffet before the meeting.

Can’t believe anyone would make a fuss about this.

Same.

Now I'm feeling sorry for all the technicians sitting in darkened basements putting on old videos for our entertainment.

I think they do deserve endless brew and proper choccie bikkies.
Even a mine pie or two

And same here.

I once worked for a company with a tea lady who came round with a trolley of free drinks and goodies, including warm pasties and sausage rolls on a Friday. Those were the days.
