So, I have recently moved to a new role in my organsiation. In my previous role, things were sorted—from a cake point of view. I managed a small team, who all sat in one office. If anyone brought in cakes, they would be placed strategically out of my line of sight. That little gesture was an amazing help to a constantly recovering over eater
Fast forward to now. I still manage a small team but we're located in a large open plan office. The 'cake' table, conveniently located near to my desk is constantly brimming with goodies as there is always someone who (a) has a birthday, (b) is leaving, (c) is having a baby, (d) has been on holiday. Any excuse for cake really.
Does anyone have any tips as to how I can best manage this situation? I'm absolutely desperate to get on top of it. I don't even like sweet things all that much but I'm concentrating quite hard on my new job and sometimes feel the need to break things up—which sometimes involves a little stroll and a grab of what's available whether or not I need it, or even like it
How do you guys manage this?
Thanks for your help.
