Sep. 6th, 2004 09:55 pmInteresting... Yesterday, I E-mailed back the person from Sharples asking if the changes were because of a cost-cutting effort:
( My E-mail )
And this was the reply I got:
"michael
You're on the right track. Just a well-intentioned effort to change the menu. That's right. Of course we do not intend to cut the quality of the food in Sharples. We intend to improve menu choices. As always open to good suggestions. jan "
Now is it just because I just had some chai after being fairly tired, or does that sound like she's really, really trying to cover something up? Again, I don't know why they WOULD try so hard to cover things up, but...she really sounds a lot like Baghdad Bob or something. (Wasn't that the Saddam's spokesperson's name? Well, you probably know the guy I'm talking about even if I'm getting his name wrong.)
Either way, I think I am going to E-mail Linda McDougall just to see what she says. Probably not yet, though. I don't know, though...I know she's supposed to be fairly evil to the Dining Services employees, but would she really force them to hide what seem to be obvious budget cuts? Well, hopefully if I ask her directly, I'll get a straight answer. Or else the Phoenix may have to launch a crusade to save Greek bar, like I already suggested to
arctangent...
Edit: OK, maybe I was wrong on this... (See my next post for why.)
