people should be encouraged to walk the last mile of a journey, not be effortlessly transported there.

feeling pretty disappointed that some of my colleagues are planning to go to SPIT wetherspoons SPIT at lunch today.
maybe i'm being oversensitive, but I think it's a quite offensive towards the EU nationals we have working in the office...
