It's a Pizza Party

redeemable only at big bill hell’s cars

 

I know what this is from. Well played sir

 

I actually miss the ping pong table in the office. Played often. During work hours of course.

 

Is he a developer?

 

I work as a professional ping pong player, so the table is de rigueur.

 

Everytime I've quit a job was to get more money.

 

I left my last job (15 years) to get away from toxic management with the carrot of more money in the future. I eventually got that carrot 4 years later, but the primary reason for leaving was terrible bosses.

 

My company is seemingly decent compared to a lot of you guys, but first day on the job my boss was showing me around the office and highlighted the “focus rooms” which had a recliner by calling out that their use was frowned upon. Always love to see bullshit gestures like that and ping pong tables.

 

“Here’s this thing we’ve provided for you own mental health because we’re a caring company.”

“Don’t use it.”

 

This thread has made me appreciate the company I work for even more than I already did.

 

We are happy to have you here.

 

Throw them a pizza party

 

I have one of those!

I shit there.

 

has the tv show severance been discussed ITT?

 

Several jokes about waffle parties and the like

 

My old law firm just had a company wide meeting cracking down on WFH and when people arrive to the office. They already have some pretty severe staffing issues. This will only make it much worse.

 

I hope you got plenty of rest and be sure and drink lots of fluids

 

Can't wait for the foreign object stories after this one.

 

I'm already putting in a guess for "corn dog".

 

That's certainly better than a test your strength hammer.

 

Skee ball

 

Our US office is being flown to Copenhagen(HQ) in October so the whole company can be together for a week and collaborate.

 

You all better stop and listen, too.

 

You can barely tell that inflatable banjo was inside somebody’s asshole just a few short hours ago.

 

Changing my vote to that red/yellow/blue probe-ey looking thing.

 

Even better for lubing the way in.

 

The movie card is pretty awesome.

 

Sounds like we need a TMB carnival day!

Not mine

 

At my previous job we all got a random Friday in May off. This was a small place, a dozen people or so, so it was hard not to attuned to each others whereabouts. This day off was announced out of the blue, I believe the week of. Usually our holidays were scheduled well in advance and distributed in the calendar at the beginning of the year.

Turns out it was because our 2-person executive team was going to the Kentucky Derby, so I guess they must've felt guilty.

 

Should have invited you all to tag along

Here's the BBC story

MY office likes to do a monthly birthday potluck lunch. I am the only one in my office with an August birthday, so I have refused to volunteer the info of when my birthday is to avoid it. Plus I hate everyone telling me happy birthday. Since my birthday is on a Friday this year, and we only work half days on Fridays, I just decided to take the day off in case somehow they figure out when my birthday is.

 

Try having your year round employee birthday parties ran by HR. They put it on the company calendar and don’t give ya a choice.

 

Happy birthday, enjoy misery

 

"Yes CEO, when is this breakfast going to end? Do I get paid for my time at this breakfast?" would be my questions lol.
