Lunch room - On Monday they get 3 loaves of bread, ham, salami, turkey, lettuce, tomatoes, cucumber, capsicum and some apples, bananas and oranges delivered fresh. Help yourself. No need to make lunch any more!
In the cupboard there's about 30 tins of tuna, 30 packs of noodles and various protein/muesli bars.
Beer fridge - Currently has 2 cartons of Heinekens and a carton of Peroni in it.
Wine rack - About 15 bottles of red and glasses ready to go.

Do they also supply soy sauce to pour on your boots?
Seriously - that's not too dissimilar to my own workplace. Fruit, muesli bars, chockies, a dozen different sorts of tea - and most importantly, an industrial scale coffee machine. Drinks fridge stacked with softies for the monthly barbecues, and a harder drinks trolley which appears every Friday evening.
I'm guessing you're at a small-ish company. These things invariably never happen at the bigger joints. Makes a difference from working in the University and Public Service sectors.

Thanks to Gadj & Kahuna for the advice, been very helpful in setting expectations and hints/tips. Despite the pain the knee already feels much better structurally than before. Doc was happy with the surgery, despite it being one of the worst ones he has seen, couldn't get the screws and staples out from my previous ACL reco but he believes it wont impact me going forward.

Who did it Dutchy?
I was thinking mine was coming on quicker than I'd hoped, but it's settled down again, touch wood.
