Eating "childish" snacks at the desk?

F*** him, he sounds like an asshole. Don't worry about it

Is he fat? Joke about how you can get away with eating snacks or how he should try carrots instead of four Miller Lites with his frozen pizza to forget about his divorce

Turn it back on him with "what's with your unhealthy obsession with children, that's kind of sick". Say it loud so everyone can hear.

Next time that happens, say “Fuck you, you balding piece of shit. My prestigious PE exit will make more than your pathetic self ever will trying to reach MD while slaving away for the next 10 years as a mid bucket VP”

Then when he laughs and starts walking away you go behind him pull down his pants and throw your baby snacks on his exposed nude buttox.

Keep lifting and eating, eventually these fucks will realize you can bench press more than their body weight for reps and will stfu

Michael Milken infamously had horrible eating habits on the job in which the most “adult” food he ever consumed was Chinese take out. Being really good at his job helped him dodge the ball-breaking you’re going through obviously, but my point is that eating like a child is something even the titans did.

super weird. my office break room has goldfish, oreos, pretzels, etc. Everyone all the way up to MD eats them haha dude sounds like an asshole

I think ball-breaking is just a part of normal group dynamics. You’re just supposed to riposte, maybe dig at the VP a bit. Idk if ‘baby food’ is the impression I’d get from you, but you’d definitely stick out in my head as a snacker if you’re always eating something when I visit your desk.

That said, you should just own it

the only childish and also good snack from the list is teddy grahams.

imo, if you're an alpha, you can just laugh about it and continue enjoying snacks. if you're beta, then you would adjust your behavior.

I live and die by HARIBO liquorice, so fuck the haters

Try Arby's

I think it depends on the matter by which you eat your snacks- one at a time, or do you throw it back?

Listen, my entire group called me Precious for two years because once I was planning a date for my visiting girlfriend and, being new to the city, asking for recommendations. Embrace it and start eating Uncrustables at your desk like a legend. 

I personally love when the office fridge is stocked with juice boxes. I grab my juice and pair it with a bag of chips, then head to the stairwell where I can snack without shame.

OK: Pretzels, Baby carrots, Celery (although don't call them sticks), Apple (although slices is lame - just eat an apple like an adult), Cheez-its

For widdle baby bois: Goldfish, teddy grahams, dry cereal

I mean, fuck that dude. But overall, who cares what people think of your snacks? Eat whatever you want and people will just eventually ignore it.

Also, it probably helps if you just own it too. Just rep teddy grahams super hard or some shit, like carry the box into their office while you chat with them and just snack away. Be bold

Start eating raw steaks at your desk with your hands

just gotta start dogging raw liver and testicles at the desk.

jokes aside, as a sa i used to bring snacks and share em w my co-interns and some of the full-times so if it’s just banter/ball-busting, just gotta take it, but nothing wrong with having something to brighten up your time in the office

As title states, I have recently taken up snacking at my desk. Picked up a workout routine and am just hungrier, plus I find I can stay more engaged.

My coworkers and specifically my VP has started giving me hell about the snacks I choose to eat though. Every time he walks by or even just encounters me, he says something along the lines of "ohohoh does baby need a snack" or "maybe we can get you some cheerios next, or are you still too little". A bunch of my other coworkers and people have started commenting. I don't mind a ton but want to gain perspective on is this really weird? I don't really care with my current position since it's very clearly a joke, i'll just joke back and it's fine. Plus I know I produce a decent deliverable, and already have signed exit offer, but will it fuck me at my next role if i eat like this?

Typical snacks include: pretzels, baby carrots, Goldfish crackers, Teddy Grahams, celery sticks, apple slices, Cheez-Its, fruit snacks, and certain dry cereals (i like cookie crisp and reeses puffs a lot)

I guess these foods are considered childish, but i didn't know there was an age limit on them? it just seems like normal food to me. it's light and not messy so it's easy to snack on as i type, and they're not super high in calories either. Plus, my lunches are normal just usually either a carryout bowl or I'll bring a pasta or sandwich from home.

Simple solution hide your food.

Probably doesn't do great things for your reputation when you're caught with a box of Teddy Grahams just like the MD's toddlers. The chocolate bears are particularly tasty.

Maybe dude just needs a snickers

Nothing taboo about that so wouldn't worry about it from a political perspective.  But, I cringed as I read all those simple carbs.  Drop (most) of the goldfish, pretzels, teddy grahams, cheese its and dry cereals. If you're finding yourself hungry from working out you need to eat more protein and satiating foods.  While delicious, goldfish don't fill you up and have minimal nutritional value.  Not to mention, those simple carbs spike your blood sugar and likely leave you more tired (or needing caffeine) an hour later.  I'm guessing you know much or all of this but wanted to reiterate- the diet only gets more important as you get older.  My go to snacks: 

-Almonds, Beef Jerkey, Raw Tuna (not canned), Smoked Salmon, Lightly salted popcorn, Cheese Sticks, Kale Chips, Peanuts

What a dick, I’d start eating weirder snacks. Like bring in a block of cheese and just munch on it, or a tub of peanut butter, or a jar of honey.

One of our admins brings in animal crackers once every few weeks and everyone plays with them (tiger fighting lion, lion fighting elephant and you eat the winner). it's more fun than it sounds...

You should lateral to our group. PM me

yeah. i'd just microwave some frozen broccoli and call it day 

Keep a metal baseball bat right next to your desk. Point at it next time he makes a comment.
