As you may know I am now a co-chair of the food committee. I truly want to help everyone express his or her comments about Chartwells food service.

So…

Do you have any comments about Chartwells in TJ? I set up a message board for my floor members to give me comments of their experiences with Chartwells when I was just the food rep. for my floor, I now open this up to all of TJ. There is currently a posting for tonight’s dinner.

Look for the posting: Wednesday, September 15, 2004

I plan to take your comments with me to our meeting with Chartwells…

Although it still sucks, I have to compliment them on the fact that their food has been significantly better lately, in my opinion.

It probably has something to do with their contract renewal....

I'm also thinking they are trying to buy us out with the RHA mugs....i hope we are making a dent in their probably huge profits...i see like 12 people at a time go fill up with soda, haha.

Fuck soda, I get milk or juice. It eats into their profit margin better.

lol i am actually talking to Tina on Friday about that. Cause it should be that you can have milk or juice.

milk and juice=cost more than soda. you'd have to fill up around 15 times in a single sitting for them to even start to lose money on that kind of stuff. therefore, fill up with milk or juice whenever they aren't looking.

I always want Hot choc but I can never get it grrr

They yelled at me the other day when they saw me filling mine up with tea...now i'm just more sneaky and fill up when they aren't looking.

I don't drink soda BTW.

Tea?!?!?!

O-Kay that would be one of the least expensive things a student would
bring out of there. I love tea, what the heck?

-jsn

Soda from those fountains is cheap, very cheap. Pennies per glass.

What most don't understand is that soda out of those type of machines comes in large bags of syrup and are mixed with water and CO2 gas to form the regular beverage you're used to. The water is.. well, cheap, the CO2 gas is also quite cheap and comes in fairly large amounts under pressure.

You can see this RHA mug thing has started to shift some stuff however. Today(9-16-04), both the machines were practically out of CO2. All the soda was flat I noticed when I sat down to drink it.

that and people can walk in with a mug and sit down and eat. Ive seen it happen, not difficult to do. Also i have filled mine with ice cream, i know, what a rebel....can u believe it?

on the whole the mugs i like.
