When employers can't afford pizza parties, they come up with stuff like "dogs at work"
I'm amazed when companies can't simply afford 100% remote work. IT'S FREE!
It's not always about the money. You've never had a control-freak supervisor?
I mean I would fucking love somme puppies at work. but also pizza. pizza is good.
my old workplace used to have free breakfast which was the shit. freshly baked bread from local bakery and all sorts of toppings too, it was so nice to go to work, do stuff maybe 30minutes and just go to coffee break and eat some super good bread. and that was every day
We had that, but people knew what the delivery driver looked like or maybe reception had a secret list of buddies to notify ...whatever. When breakfast was delivered, within 10 seconds, all the vultures in the office pounced in it, leaving nothing.
Anytime pizza was given on Fridays, same vultures would rush to be 1st in line then walk out with a plate stacked with a whole pizza.... Rest of us usually got nothing.
That's something to bring up to management, you know. Those coworkers were being deliberately shitty.
damn thst sounds shitty. at our place literally no one took moteöäre than couple breads so there was enough for everyone
How much weight did you put on
I wish at least a little :D I'm pretty underweight because my body just rejects fat and I'm too lazy to do any body building to gain mass by getting muscle xd
Until you step on the owners dog.
Then you will be stepped on by the owner probably
This is a metaphor, right? Right?
U just have to profusely apologize to the dog on your knees and we can both move about our day happily. It’s not that hard
It's dogs in the workplace a problem for people with allergies?
yep. I self-select out of dog friendly offices. if that's a "benefit", I can't work there.
If they're allergic to dogs, yes. Like wat
Or are afraid of dogs. Like a lot of people, partially on account of dog attacks being relatively common.
I love dogs, but I don't trust my coworkers to control their animals.
Yes, they can indeed be a problem for people with allergies. In my case dogs (and cats unfortunately) trigger respiratory issues. I had that issue at a workplace where dogs were allowed, not fun times. And unfortunately medication like antihistamines are not an option for everybody, personally I get extremely drowsy from them, even from the latest generation meds.
