In Reply To: i would just bring in something, the policy seems perfectly harmless. doesn't seem to be a big deal, depending on the size of the team, not enough to make a big thing out of anyway.
Message: Agreed if its a small group or small amt (like doughnuts). For my group that was 100+ people. Doughnuts was much more realistic. In my case it was a big deal. A big enough deal to sue the company over. My manager listend to me because I was at that moment doing major projects for both her and the VP. I think she felt a change was needed. Fact is, I would have brought in doughnuts only anyway, even if small group. The only time I will bring major food items to a company deal is around thanksgiveing or xmas or in a group deal (where we all bring in something)>
