It's Time Troy University Fixed The Horrible Attitudes And Food Quality At SAGA

All of the money we pay for a meal plan, and this is what they try to serve us?!

I like it here at Troy University, but the meal plan that I chose sucks. It's the Cart Blanche with 25 flex dollars and all the SAGA swipes. As a freshman, I had no idea which meal plan would be the best because I obviously don't know much about Troy. My parents really encouraged it because they liked that I wouldn't run out of food. I had heard bad things about this specific meal plan, but I chose it anyway.

They served us food at SAGA during our orientation sessions, but I never had food that good again.

Once I got to school it was decent for the first two weeks, and then out of nowhere everything tasted terrible. I remember I went to SAGA for breakfast, and one of the cooks made me an omelet. That omelet was loaded with so much oil that it fell apart and was now scrambled eggs. Imagine wet looking eggs swimming in a puddle of oil, that is what my eggs looked like. They soaked the omelet in oil and then threw even more on top. It was disgusting.

And on top of that, the employees there have TERRIBLE attitudes.

As I am in line waiting for my Trojan ID to get swiped, I hear the worker literally complaining about how all of the students get on her nerves and basically how she hates her jobs. I usually thank everyone for serving me, but that day I could only manage to give this woman a look of disappointment. I'm sure working at SAGA is in no way a glamorous job, but there's no reason for them to have the horrible attitudes they do. I've had jobs that I disliked, but I made the best of it. I know these people can too, and if it's just that awful, it's time to find a new job that better fits their work needs.

I always feel cheated on my meals, too.

One day, I was STARVING. The line to get into the dining area was wrapped around the room, so I waited like 45 minutes to get some food. I finally get to the front, and the cook puts one tiny piece of meat onto my plate. I asked for another piece, and the cook refused to give it to me. They say your meal plan is unlimited, but it doesn't feel like it when SAGA gives a college student a serving size of a 4 year old. At this point, I was done with SAGA. I honestly though starving would be a better option than eating there or eating out because I just couldn't deal with this anymore.

If you can, avoid SAGA. There is NOTHING good about eating here.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
