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

[-] ares35@kbin.social 67 points 10 months ago

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

[-] fallingcats@discuss.tchncs.de 10 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

You guys do that? Here they subtract your lunch time from the time you're clocked in

[-] Nawor3565@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 10 months ago

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.

[-] Carighan@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

Same here, is this not normal in some countries?

[-] SnipingNinja@slrpnk.net 1 points 10 months ago

It doesn't subtract, they're still clocked in on lunch time. Still shitty, but not as much

[-] fallingcats@discuss.tchncs.de -1 points 10 months ago

No, the half hour break is mandatory by law and therefore not really subtracted from time worked

[-] lightnsfw@reddthat.com 20 points 10 months ago

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.

Company cutting costs by laying off all the artists.

Business lady's hand is growing a second smaller hand

[-] M137@lemmy.world 7 points 10 months ago

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.

Should be a single pizza and night shift gets crumbs.

[-] ThatFembyWho@lemmy.blahaj.zone 9 points 10 months ago

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

[-] RecallMadness@lemmy.nz 5 points 10 months ago

I was gonna say. 1 pizza per worker is some generous ratio.

[-] PM_ME_YOUR_ZOD_RUNES@sh.itjust.works 34 points 10 months ago

We had a pizza party at the office last week. If you wanted some you had to pay 5$....

[-] Speculater@lemmy.world 18 points 10 months ago

My company kept having barbeques and cook outs or pizza parties. They all cost like $5-10 per a person. Fuck that cheap asses. "Feel free to invite your family!" Yeah, no.

[-] LemmyKnowsBest@lemmy.world 33 points 10 months ago

Whoa That's over $100 worth of pizza. That company really splurged on their valuable employees.

[-] Ultragramps@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 10 months ago

That’s not delivery, it’s about $40 of DiGiornio.

[-] rjc@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago

Maybe they'll report it on your income taxes

[-] LemmyKnowsBest@lemmy.world 5 points 10 months ago

Oh yeah Is this a reference to the nurse whose hospital job gave the employees a taxable potato bar party for christmas

[-] rjc@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

'tis indeed

[-] NatakuNox@lemmy.world 26 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

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.

[-] Speculater@lemmy.world 7 points 10 months ago

Fidelity or Wells Fargo?

[-] Strawberry@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 10 months ago
[-] NatakuNox@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

Literally Integrity

[-] virtueisdead@lemmy.dbzer0.com 26 points 10 months ago

ai generated memes... 🤦

[-] brb@sh.itjust.works 7 points 10 months ago

What's the problem?

[-] TimLovesTech@badatbeing.social 15 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

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

[-] ThatFembyWho@lemmy.blahaj.zone 15 points 10 months ago

Damn where yall work that you get a whole freaking pizza bonus?! We got one slice lol

I mean, I'm never gonna turn down pizza but uh. Those $3k bonuses we used to get went a lot further...

[-] Arthur_Leywin@lemmy.world 14 points 10 months ago

Id rather get the money they spent on the pizza lmao

[-] danc4498@lemmy.world 9 points 10 months ago

I feel this

[-] son_named_bort@lemmy.world 9 points 10 months ago

You guys got pizza? At my workplace we got salad.

[-] Ensign_Crab@lemmy.world 8 points 10 months ago

Management wasn't winning any friends.

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago

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."

[-] Thrashy@lemmy.world 7 points 10 months ago

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.

[-] thoughtorgan@lemmy.world 0 points 10 months ago

I mean, that is kinda too bad lmfao. At the end of the day they had to pick something and they can't make sure every single person in the company is going to like what they choose.

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

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.

[-] thoughtorgan@lemmy.world -1 points 10 months ago

Tough luck. If they ordered vegan shit I would skip it and get my own food.

Asking opens a can of worms.

[-] Tenthrow@lemmy.world 5 points 10 months ago

Better than a potato party though.

[-] M0oP0o@mander.xyz 2 points 10 months ago

Hey why did this go missing from !imageai@sh.itjust.works ? Do we have a containment breach?

Oh shit.

[-] leanleft@lemmy.ml 1 points 7 months ago

DIY pizza ought to be easy to make. its basically poverty food.

[-] Prethoryn@lemmy.world -4 points 10 months ago

I work for a medical company in our area. Not all parties are like this. I didn't partake but a lot of my coworkers went to the bar after the fact.

I used to work for a cell phone retailer (larger one) our company party got wild every year I was there.

[-] NatakuNox@lemmy.world 19 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

You do realize this post has nothing to do with the party, right? It has everything to do with the workers not being given their fair share of the profits they generated. No one gives a shit how wild the company parties are. "Fuck you, pay me!" is the point.
