Sounds like our government.

They should try their feet for a change. The Germans would have more respect.

You mean...you mean ... you ate dinner in the Dail Restaurant with our ex- Very Important People?!

I was not a guest of ffers, veggies, fg, pd, or anyone from the Dail. It was a very interesting and enlightening evening. At one point a whole tribe of becapped healy reas materialised in the bar, I pointed out to senior and crown prince that gentlemen do not wear caps indoors. As I was speaking clear (what they would probably call D4) English they choose to ignore the comment or accepted the reality that they are not and never will be gentlemen.

to all the idiots out there saying this is wrong- ok i say to you what would you say if your employer said you had to be in work early and have to have your brekkie at work, first thing you would want is to be paid for the time and second the food would be free. but alas all the idiots on here just want to throw stones at everyone else while they themselves rob the country blind and pay for nothing

I don't know what company you work for, but unless I am on the road for business food is my problem - no matter what time I need to be in or leave the office. And that is as it should be.
Your shareholders should not be paying for your breakfast if you left from home that morning to go to the office.
