Advice on how to eat every 2-3 hours at work this summer?

[bballusa]

Okay, well here's the deal...

This summer I got a job at a government contracting business sort of thing. I'll be working in the mail room delivering packages monday tuesday and wednesday. Basically, I'm trying to think of ways to eat every 2-3 hours, as this isn't an ordinary "teen" job. This is actually a very professional place with engineers and such.

They have a very nice private gym which I will be using through the summer which is nice, and they have a buffet which I am thinking would be a good idea to eat at, but i wouldn't be able to take a break every 3 hours... im working 8 hour shifts

any suggestions?

Trail mix, man. Lots and lots of trail mix.

ha well im trying to get meat in there.. preferably beef or chicken.. i guess i could take a protein shake to keep me good for 2 of the 8 hours but that leaves the rest

You could load up a tupperware container with anything, really... chicken, tuna, beef.. if they'll let you bring food. You could always bring a few wraps, too. But mixed nuts will provide you with protein and fats, too, and will be pretty convenient.

true... maybe i'll just load that **** up and bring it

You should talk with your boss about your eating needs and see what they think about it. As a cook nobody minded if I brought in a protein shake and scooped up a heap of beef on a chip every time I made something.

with an 8 hr shift you're supposed to get 2 15 min breaks and a 30 min lunch..

i dont see why u would have any problems if u were to bring food prepared with u to work
