Law, Being above the
As a librarian, you have the authority to flagrantly disobey your library's food and drink policy. Have pizzas delivered to the circulation desk, answer reference questions while gnawing on a fried chicken leg, and shelve books while eating cotton candy. No librarian should ever have to go hungry while vigilantly enforcing the library's prohibitions on bottled water.

Reading this as I drink a soda at the desk...*a loud belch permeates the "silence."
oops, I think I just spilled my soup on the keyboard I laughed so hard reading this...
Ooo! There is a banana in my desk!
Well, I'm reading this while eating my lunch at my desk so I guess that shows where I stand on the issue. =D
When I was in college, I never could get a reference librarian's help because they were always too busy eating lunch at their desks.
I can't see my keyboard for all the crumbs.
Don't forget chocolate, the lifeblood of Librarianism.
one reason we don't have any rules against food and drink in our (academic) library
I was overjoyed when my library changed its policy on beverages. Somehow, a cup of hot tea makes a book even better.
We allow "covered" drinks. We had to ask a man who had a lovely steak dinner, a fork, steak knife and cloth napkin to please eat his meal outside.
We had lots of cake in the backroom that day...
I find it a bit depressing when patrons eat better than I do
We allow 'covered' drinks and turn a blind eye to snack food - but hot food, especially things like dimsims or hot chips, get asked to leave!
We're a public library, and while our patrons are allowed to have whatever food they want, for the most part. But we can't have any food at the desk. :(
