UTC received a release recently that was actually a sales pitch for Baxters’ new Super-licious Soup Pots range but was delivered in the guise of research into how annoyed office workers get about using the team microwave.
Allegedly, 62% of workers “get annoyed over the office microwave” with 42% apparently “infuriated by colleagues leaving out of date food in the fridge”. There was a whole bunch of other findings too, but the auld yin found them all far too tedious to share with the readers of SLR.
Instead he’ll just leave you with a copy of Baxters’ ‘A Guide to Office MicroManagement’.
“If you work in a shared office space you will know that keeping up with the kitchen politics is a job in itself,” quipped Lorraine Rothwell, European Marketing Director at Baxters Food Group.
