In every company, there are bizarre rules and regulations we must agree to before joining. But how far is too far?
Recently,?Reddit users were left debating about an eccentric rule, which might make you think twice before joining certain companies.
So, this particular policy mandating employees to bring vegan lunches to a corporation sparked a heated debate on Reddit. The rule on a specific dietary choice sparked controversy about personal freedom, dietary preferences, and how much influence employers think they have over their employees' lunch choices.?
Well, a 'Vegan lunch' is never a bad option, but why make it compulsory?

Reddit user u/Reezeyyy shared a screenshot of the mail with the caption, "Applied for a job, received this in an email. Can they force this upon me or not hire based on this??"?
The email snapshot includes numerous questions that will assist the organisation in shortlisting prospects. "Our workplaces are strictly vegan," one of them says. You do not need to be vegan away from work, but you do need to bring vegan lunch and have plant milks to eat on site or eat lunch offsite. Can you confirm you are fine with this?"?
This matter prompted a debate on whether or not a firm can restrict what its workers eat at work.
The discussion moved beyond the current issue, touching on broader themes such as corporate control, workplace autonomy and employers' duties to their employees. Redditors debated whether employers should be permitted to impose personal lifestyle choices, raising concerns about the boundaries of employer authority in moulding their employees' personal lives.
