I'm a sucker for pizza parties though :/
I mean... pizza parties are great! They just aren't a good replacement for being paid.
Pizza parties for me have either been where
I work in service industry and am allowed to grab a slice but I must eat it at my desk and keep working
I work in technology industry and my boss is well aware we're going to have to work through lunch for the 3rd day in a row because of massive outages and orders pizza
Sales is coming into the building and they're celebrating with catered lunch but we get pizza as a consolation
Get stale old pizza because they only ever get the pizza for morning shift and you are only allowed to eat it on your scheduled breaks.
Eat their pizza and unionize anyways
Have your pizza and unionize too!
Better yet, add pizza parties into the union contract
Now we're thinking with ~~portals~~ unions
My boss promised me a big pizza party if we finished a big project. We finished it months ago, and we're even making some progress on the stretch goal. No pizza party...
Make more money elsewhere and hold your own pizza party with the extra money.
