Free Tacos for Health Week!

I had the unfortunate task of assisting our department coordinate the lunch tickets for Health Week. It was horrid. On Monday, HR announced that we were having tacos. Then, on Tuesday, sometime after 2:00 pm, they decided to drop of bags and bags and bags of the lunch tickets with flyers and a little post-it note gift for our entire department! Which is the biggest! We have roughly 350 employees in our department. And here I was, given the task of handing them out or grouping them by their supervisor and then creating individual packets for the supervisors to hand out. It was tedious, tiring, and forced me to work overtime. I ended up stopping at 6:30 pm and leaving the rest for the next morning. And honestly, if my cubemate didn't assist me, I would've been at work way longer!

Anyhow, today's the day we get our tacos! Oh, I also wasn't supposed to be included since I'm technically not an employee yet. All contractors and temps weren't included. Boooo! But luckily, Socorro, my cubemate, was working at LBM today, so she gave me her ticket!

Here's what the crowd looked like when I went down at 1:00 pm (30 minutes before the end).

I got my tacos!!

Although, the two tacos didn't seem like it filled me up. So I dared to get back up and see if they'd give me another taco. Of course I knew they recognized me. I mean, I had JUST gone up there 15 minutes ago and there weren't too many people. Plus one of the servers already commented on me being preggo. So, I didn't try to pretend I was going up there for the first time. I just simply asked if they had a spare taco to send my way. And, sure enough, I got my third taco! I decided to bring back to my cubicle though since my lunch was almost over. And.. funny thing, by the time I got back, I wasn't hungry! LOL!

So I saved it.. and then the VP, Julie, swang by my cubicle. She noticed I got to try the tacos and mentioned that she didn't have any time to make it down there. So, I offered her mine and told her that I was too stuffed to finish it. But, she took one look at it, and said it didn't look appetizing. Hahahaha!

I must say, they definitely weren't the best tacos I've had. In fact, they were kinda like, caffeteria tacos. Oh well!
