    Office cake is as bad as passive smoking

    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-64315384

    I might have to sue Mrs Albert for bringing a slice of cake out to the garden office.

    Can only think that Susan Jebb is a deeply unpopular bint and no one bring in cake on her birthday!

        Never worked for a bank, but a long, long time ago at a media company in Soho, we went to the pub from midday every Friday (and quite a few other days of the week).

          She's the one who is suppose to bring in cake or sweets or (even fruit or vegetables).

          Though I agree she's probably unpopular due to not bringing in anything.

            Back in the day, a long time ago when I was perm, the dev team in most of the companies I worked at would go down the pub on a Friday lunchtime.

            Doesn't seem to happen any more

                Cake shops should have to shutter their windows so people don't see a cake walking past.

                  Yes.

                  Mr Kipling will have to branch out into e-Cakes, a bit like vapes, fake cake made of an un-holy mix of dodgy chemicals but no actual cake.
