Abusing freebies
A friend of mine recently attended a 'Champaign Lunch', where he was compelled drink as much fizzy stuff as he could between the first and last courses. In an ideal world we'd ask restaurant staff to tell us stories about fatties stuffing themselves at All You Can Eat places, but we recognise that our members don't all work in the catering trade, so for the rest of you - tell us something about abusing freebies. BTW: Bee puns = you fail.

Not much recently
But my employers quite frequently lay on buffet lunches for meetings of any considerable size.
I'm constantly amazed that people earning VERY comfortable salaries, who drive new cars and live in posh areas relish the opportunity to ravish a 2nd had buffet like ethiopians with skunk-munchies, while I, the lowest paid member of staff would gladly pass it up to retain a shred of dignity.
(As an aside, I'm a finance monkey and as part of my job, I go through the payroll in detail for various reasons every month, so I know for certain what everyone XXearnsXX - is paid, including expenses, allowances, bonuses etc)
