I work with whoever pays me, so I've no choice about that.
Still annoys me sometimes tho, especially when it would take 5 minutes to go sit somewhere else, and some places I've worked have lounges / eating areas but still they eat at their desk...fair enough if there is no place to go; but there is around here, even the park...
It's a personal thing and won't be popular saying it, but I just think it's bad manners; and it's really unhygienic - remember that study that found there was more germs on a work desk than say a toilet - purely down to people eating at work.
