We just reached a major milestone at the company I work at. $1B in annual sales. We got a pizza party. Yay.
Fun fact: My team could never get away from our desks to join those pizza parties they threw for the office to celebrate my team’s efforts.
I can relate with this.
Yes, very recognizable
They hire people needing some basic smarts but are then baffled that those same people figure out that pizza is way less compensation than paid overtime. 🙄
what's sad is how many people do *not* figure that out...
All things considered you could probably get me to work half an hour longer if you supply me with unlimited pizza at the workplace 😅
The saddest part - that’s not comedy but reality in most corporations
Exactly. Managers and higher ups are trained on how to give low-cost recognition, and they’re often told the lie that workers JUST want to feel appreciated in the job. What they’re not told is these workers feel appreciated when they’re paid and rated fairly for their job. They can buy their own pizza, and they don’t want to clutter their desk or home with trophies and plaques.
Not only is lady hilarious, she also has such a solid presence that she could probably convince me to accept a pizza party in lieu of a raise 😂
That pizza better have coins instead of pepperoni, and that bread better be some fat bank notes 😂😂😂
yeah, but you get no doggy bag and cant take any home...
@@paradiselost9946 clearly you've never bought any pants with pockets 😅
We get a potluck dinner 😂😂😂, I never attend and say at loud I cannot afford to feed myself let alone a whole team of people. I’m told I need to be more positive. Hard to be positive when in a constant state of hanrgy.
At my job we had remodeled and had a new parking lot that had a concrete retaining wall. Our grounds keeper had one of his guys face it with flagstone we had uncovered during remodeling. Huge job guy did in “spare” time. When it was done this guy doing stonemason work for $10/hour got a plaque put on the wall acknowledging his work 🙄 I wanted him to be paid a bonus 🤬
Reminds of when I was working. Been retired for 20 years - thank goodness.
I heard of a company that asked employees to take on the task of doing TEAM BUILDING planning without any money for a budget! Ppl who stepped up and did the job were rewarded with a “ GREAT JOB THANKS” and nothing more…… AND JUST RECENTLY the same company treated the very hard working employees ( who completed task ahead of schedule and made profits for the company)to a party of fried chicken BUT THE company collected money from anyone attending to buy the chicken and the company ( wait for it) paid for drinks and fries!
Company was in the secret process of downsizing and eliminating jobs as it was announced within that time frame!
Company gives you A JOB! They are not your friends or your family. Please be professional but keep that fact in mind when feeling guilty for jumping ship
BOOM
Honestly, even with the politics and drama of my job, I'm glad we're treated well. Unless things really go down the drain, they give raises.
I worked for a short time at an awful software company in brighton. The boss was a horrendous bully and people used to work long hours during the week and often come in on Saturday mornings to do some more. They got pizza.
Managing Director got £50K bonus we got an ice lolly each !
Last Voice of the Employee survey we did, the only thing HR were prepared to talk about was how much the percentage of respondents had gone up. That was the high point. What did all these people tell you? “Mumble mumble results will be talked about in a future call mumble mumble”. That was LAST YEAR…
The merchandise with company logo etched on it somewhere. 😢
I actually wouldn't mind a windbreaker, hoodie, or polo shirt if it didn't include a damn image of the business with it. They just want to turn you into a walking billboard, spreading their company wordmark around town. I don't even like wearing their clothes while doing yard work, fearing the neighbors will notice. Lol
We want to hire people who want the job for more than money. For what purposes??!!! How are money only employees less than more-than-money employees?
1:20 lol more low cost than a slice of pizza??? Yeah people love a slice of pizza instead of the bonus that the company and the manager is getting because of all the hard working individuals under them.
Like we're children
Unnamed big box employer is serving chic -fil-a today ironically... they have been pushing OT lately.🙄
Can stick the pizza where the sun don't shine!😂
This is one of the reasons why the only “corporation” that workers of ALL ranks should be loyal to is “You, Inc.”. Managers and higher-ups are taught how to give low-cost recognition because they’re told the lie that the employees JUST want recognition and appreciation. Employees feel recognized and appreciated with a fair wage to what they do, NOT from trophies or free food.
They should think about Jackets with the company logo for the top performers.
If the environment isn’t healthy, none of the above will matter…….oh except a pay raise. What really needs to be addressed/looked into, is why people are leaving a supposed good company to begin with. Healthy and good (for certain minds) are keywords that attract and keep productive people around. Personally, I think the average mind focuses on the wrong thing/s when it comes to what should be happening in the work place!!! As most are looking for someone to control, manipulate, bully, “figure out”. All of the above just stupid shit that inevitably builds disgust, while revealing what certain individuals are really “good” at.
The pizza, the Townhall 'shout-outs' the plaques (hand written on little logo faced cardstock tiles) when they have 50" led screens posted every twenty feet along all the walls running company commercials 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year and little huddle cubicles all over the place that 90% of the employees can't use due to the nature of their job so these expensive little spaces are almost always empty....tell me how you really don't give a damn about your employees without telling me how you really don't give a damn about your employees.
$600M cash in the bank and no raises this year.
Thanks for the substandard pay, I see you got a nice new luxury vehicle, and we got pizza. Who did all the work for the sale? Oh yes... that was me. So glad you got that car so I can see it in the parking lot every morning. Oh by the way, can you fill out this form so I can get government assistance?
Just pay people, for the love of god.
Plastic vehicle license plate holder with the company name on it. The MOST inexpensive "gift" guarenteed to put a target on your car if used...Great! Free advertising! What could be better? The hospital where I worked did that one year. Pizza party for when staff is screaming busy with no time for a break instead of extra nurses to help...
This is nursing 100%.
You get paid hourly with overtime. What else do you think an hourly employee should get ? You’re considered a technician at this point.
Please don’t tell me this. I’m going to school to be a nurse 😅
🏆🍕
Makes us so aggravated you prefer to just rot
Yeah, pizza party for people who break their back working to earn your company more money? How about a challenge coin with the company logo? Take them out to a meal? I mean after all they are just employees and of no consequence. It’s their job to make you more money. Right. Not like they have a life outside work.
Pizza party like we’re fucking five. Thx but no thanks.
I watched a mam get a logo cup for 1 year of service. Ridiculous.
How about an ipad for serial killers and paedophiles in prison? Shout out to Milka & Susan at Bandyup, 27 years is a long time to be with out social media in prison. Locked out from love! 😢 🤳 🔒 ❤
What are our company values again???? Oh, pizza parties.
