Desperate Measures

Have you ever taken an exam before? After doing all that last minute work everything little thing counts isn't it? So what desperate measures did you resort to?

I've saw this pinned up at my University Hall's notice board. I don't believe what people can come up with these days when they are desperate over exams. I would think they should be really busy, but guess what! Read this...

They are making a business out of this. My goodness! I think the prices are not cheap for home cook food. I can get the same thing from a take away for about 5 pounds! Most take away will do deliveries for orders with 10 pounds or more. Some even give free drinks (Cola) to regulars.

I guess there are people looking for additional business everywhere!

But indeed it is not cheap.

Where I live (NC in the U.S.), Meals on Wheels is the name of a non profit in America. Here is a blurb from their site, Meals on Wheels: "provides nutritious meals and other nutrition services to men and women who are elderly, homebound, disabled, frail, or at risk. These services significantly improve the quality of life and health of the individuals they serve and postpone early institutionalization."

It is interesting that the same name would be used for a business since this organization has been around for a long time.

Luke: Ya, the food sounds good actually.

Sidney: haha... Yes it is not cheap.

Carver: That is very interesting information. What a coincident?! I guess that is the beautiful of the internet. It is a way of exchanging information.

Alex: They certainly are taking advantage of the hard working students.

"Regulars will be given further discount...", whatever that means. Maybe not quite so expensive in the end then?

Fishing Guy: I agree.

shionge: haha... you have to pay for the price of being lazy or for making it easy.

Per Stromsjo: I mean Regulars as people who frequently buy from them. Ya, if you are a regular, then it is cheaper.

Alicesg: haha

Martini: I guess so.
