It looks bad if you're not working while eating...

Cookies With MilkenI think eating at your desk looks busier than eating out and not being at your desk. Is this a serious question?

I mean eating a meal about every 2 hours during the work day at the desk.

That's fine. I assume you're a body builder eating smaller meals over the course of the day. Just keep it simple. You'll be ok so long as you aren't meeting the take out guy downstairs and cracking lobsters while wearing a bib. Maybe supplement with protein shakes and mixed nuts and raw deli meats as opposed to microwaving chicken every 2 hours.

 

As opposed to... not eating? Eating at your desk makes you look more busy not less...?
