the art of tastefully eating all of the food in the break room

well, my office currently does not have a break room, rather a corner that contains a mini refrigerator, microwave, and small cabinet. however, today there was a meeting and we have accumulated a large platter of cookies, muffins, fruits and granola bars. i, not having brought a lunch, thought what an opportune moment to save a few dollars and eat food that would only go to waste otherwise.

the down fall is that after the first time i walk by the corner, grab a cup of lukewarm coffee and a snack, it is more difficult to continually sneak over and grab something, especially since the corner is in plain view of three other offices. Not that they care, but maybe they do, and I do not need the reputation of being a mooch since sometime next week I will be having to explain myself in front of a panel as i fight for the job i currently already have.
