Toast anyone?
Apr 17th, 2013, 11:14am
 
"Media Monkey" in "The Guardian" reports that:-

BBC staff have won a victory after they were banned from making their own toast - but they are still barred from picking up hot sausages. A new contractor, BBC Club, had changed the rules at the corporation's canteen at the Media Centre at White City in west London, sparking complaints from staff. It has now installed a special toaster at a "remote point" in the cafe. One BBC worker told the Mirror: "I resent the fact that someone in a pinny can tell me I can't take care of myself. I'm perfectly capable of making a meal at home, so can easily manage a bit of self-service." The BBC told the Telegraph that the changes were due to "space limitations and not any health and safety rules". Trust the BBC to make a meal of it.
