Keyboard food tray

by Nick Vagnoni, Posted Jul 10th 2006 @ 5:01PM

Some of you might recall a post a few months back about the worst foods to eat over your keyboard. Well, designer Duck Young Kong has come up with something akin to a T.V. tray that might protect your keyboard from your lunch. As you can see, it can hold your food and still leave room for you to type. Is this convenient? Probably. Is it a surefire way to get your greasy, grilled-cheese-hands all over your keyboard? You bet. It still looks like a recipe for disaster to me.

I do this because there are times when it is inconvenient to break for lunch even though the clock says it is dinner time. It all evens out and it helps ME---okay, it helps my boss, too, but she does the same thing. As long as I am doing the work that I get paid to do, and no one cares about my missing that 12 noon feedbag (myself included) why should all of you care?

As for the keyboard tray--sorry but that thing does look like an accident on the way---I can take lunch away from the keys--thank you

I see that the food is placed directly on the tray - so one takes this thing to the restroom after lunch, armed with sponge and dishwashing liquid, and washes it each day? Give me a break. As others have stated - it's an accident waiting to happen.
