Audience Poll

For my 100th post, I wanted to raise something topical, important, and urgent.

Sunflower Seeds: Cool in the workplace?

Pros: Fox Mulder ate them. They are tasty. They remind me of little league baseball.

Cons: I just realized it might be kind of gross.

Seeds were a mainstay of my former workplace. But it was a newspaper, so being gross was a priority.

i did some field testing today and have a few things to add to the cons:

-seeds are not good when your boss unexpectedly wants to talk to you
-also difficult to discreetly dispose of the shells around coworkers

unless you work at a newspaper.

Yeah, it helps if your boss is the one distributing the seeds.

Seeds were a mainstay of my former workplace, too. But it was literally a shit factory, so you can only imagine how high a priority being gross was.

I once worked at a place where chewing tobacco was a mainstay. Maybe sunflower seeds are the chewing tobacco of California?
