      I mean… pizza parties are great! They just aren’t a good replacement for being paid.

        Pizza parties for me have either been where

        1. I work in service industry and am allowed to grab a slice but I must eat it at my desk and keep working

        2. 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

        3. 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.

      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…
