    The value of this party is $45 per person and will be added to your paycheck as taxable income.

      it also counts as your lunch break, so be sure to clock-out before attending.

          Where are you from? That’s crazy, taking an hour break doesn’t somehow undo an hour of work that you’ve done and should be paid for.

      Got an email like that a few weeks ago about a benefit I hadn’t even received and then a retraction email about 30 minutes later. Motherfuckers can’t even actually give me something without talking about taking money out of my pocket anymore.

      Not really, all hands are “correct”, 4 fingers and a thumb. Many look weird for sure, and it’s surely AI, but it’s not at all the usual mutated nightmare hands.

      Gonna have to fight for that last slice with sausage!

      like idk if ppl really enjoy sausage that much or it’s just the perceived added value of a second topping that makes it more desirable

    The last company I worked for had an $80k shortfall at the end of 2022 and tasked my department with making up the difference. When my supervisor dropped that news on us with only 2 months to go, I joked “can we get a pizza party if we achieve this?!” and she honestly said to “that’s a good idea!” I should have quite that day. That company who is named after the word integrity, had none. Our department head was the biggest piece of shit I’ve ever had the displeasure of interacting with. Dude used his religion and family as a shield to be racist and condescending. Never again.

    I got a T-shirt, and “lunch” was at 11am and counted as your lunch time (with the walk to/from cafeteria to get it being a part of that).

    Edit early morning word making is hard

      At my last job, they had a fajita truck come in. I don’t like smoked meat and I don’t like bell peppers, so I didn’t eat any. When my bosses saw I wasn’t having any, I told them why and they just gave me a ‘too bad’ look and moved on with their day.

      Every single order in the company went through me, but since I didn’t like what food they were serving (I wasn’t even told until the food truck showed up) I didn’t even get that “bonus.”

        My previous employer made a big deal of “togetherness” and regularly catered in lunches in an attempt to lure people back into the office post-pandemic… and that’s fine as far as it goes, but we had several folks with dietary restrictions and it was a constant struggle to get the admin staff to remember that they needed to order meals that accommodated everybody. I didn’t feel a whole lot of togetherness when I had to repeatedly order in my own lunch on days that lunch was supposed to be provided, because the admin “forgot” about my dairy intolerance and just ordered pizzas.

          They could have asked people first. I mean I’m guessing the vegans, if there were any, weren’t too happy about this “bonus” either. Or Jews or Muslims since it was pork.
