Call Center Food Is Usually Unhealthy

Lately I’ve been noticing the meals that my call center co-workers are eating at the pantry. And it’s quite alarming. Do you know why? It’s because most of their food items are very unhealthy.

Burgers and fries. Pizzas. Chips. Chocolate Bars.

Seldom do I see fruits and vegetables. The people that I usually see eating salads are those diet fanatics, girls who are already very thin yet still want to get thinner. That too, is unhealthy.

Here in our office’s pantry there are food providers who offer both healthy meals and also the usual fare that you can find in most canteens. Food items such as lasagna, pancit canton or bihon, siopao, rice meals, sandwiches and others.

I am also guilty of eating unhealthy food because these meals are usually the easiest to prepare or the cheapest or quickest to buy at the nearby fast food or convenience store. But I am trying my best to always think ‘healthy food’ each time I eat.

Eating healthy food is very important especially to us call center workers who have to work in the ungodly hours. I believe working night shift requires a steady supply of nutrients for our bodies to keep us safe from sickness.
