WHY I WANT TO WORK FOR CONDE NAST...CAFETERIA
'I'm Feeling Sassy!'

The other day, Lowdown found the following written exchanges on an official comment board while visiting the fourth-floor cafeteria in Condé Nast's Times Square headquarters:

#
"Trisha" asked for "a jelly w/no sugar added and brown rice for sushi," and went on: "Can you order more diet root beer ... and more vanilla low-cal yogurt?" The cafeteria's typed answer: "Yes we will order these things ... just as soon as we change the cafe into a Health Food Store."

#
Another customer requested "raspberries and blackberries @ the fruit table." The cafeteria's response: "You can sit and patiently wait for the Farmers Market."

#
"Nicole" wrote: "Why are we always out of crackers??" The cafeteria's answer: "You're right, we being too generous with giving them out for free!! What are we thinking?"

#
"Russell" asked: "How about a BLT station for the summer? Wheat toast, hickory smoked bacon, the whole nine yards!" The cafeteria's response: "How about you order a BLT from the Sandwich Station?"

#
Another employee requested: "Make more frittata in the morning please!!!" The cafeteria retorted: "We have frittata everyday until 10:30. On another note I know a great eye doctor."
