“Midday Mingle” is an Embarrassing, Insulting Gesture to Improve Morale

Yeah, come to the cafeteria to get YOUR TICKET so you can get a free food item.

Like, what do they think, some homeless person is going to wander to the back parking lot and steal food, or some random person is going to follow the food truck from wherever it was coming from and try to make a purchase behind the building? What is this? The Real Life Soup Na-i? No ticket, no soup for you!

When are they going to realize that people want MORE MONEY IN THEIR PAYCHECKS! Stop with the silly events and invest in your people.

Oh yeah, and by the way, don’t you dare put up any holiday decorations without approval or bring in your own Keurig, because you know fire hazards. 🙄

Can’t wait for the 1st Annual Ugly Holiday Sweater Day! That’s what motivates me to get out of bed everyday!

This place pi$$e$ me off so darn much.

Wouldn’t it be great if there was a 20th century mechanical technology that could make duplicates of a paper ticket?

Be very careful and never participate in events like this!

It could be a phishing scheme like the one deployed by the NY Knicks basketball team.

You think you are picking up a ticket for free food, but what if Sammy is waiting there with a pink slip instead? He wants to test your willingness to accept a bribe, which costs the company, over staying at your desk and working diligently.

Never trust this company with anything.

We so very lucky to get free food from great company. Thank you Canon and Sammy-san!

I'll take a free lunch, but I'm gonna walk off and eat it alone in my car after leaving the property. Lunch hour is for escapism and decompression, not "mingling" with coworkers. If I have to do that, I'm not clocking out.

As long as people participate in this bs they will continue to treat their employees like peasants! If you good with sh-t they’ll give you just that sh-t. Stand up and stand for something and a ticket given to you by your company to make sure you only get what according to them you deserve ONE MEAL and then mingle DURING YOUR LUNCH is not it.

As valid and as angry as your are, I promise you, you arent angry enough... Thats why management feels they can get away with snack-days. You're mad, just not mad enough.
My advice... Be madder. And tell your coworkers. Maybe one day we can fix this squeaky wheel of a company.
