I'm with NERD. I'd rather have nothing than a half-ass gesture. I already know it's Thanksgiving, and I don't need a poster and a sack lunch to make being at work suck more. Apparently the "me-too" clause (FA buffet) is a one-way (or should I say,
wrong way) street when it comes to us.
And while I'm at it...is anyone else put off by the yearly requests for holiday tips, I mean, contributions, for the CPO staff? Apparently they haul in several hundred bucks each. Sure, they replenish the ear plug dispenser, and often help us when we need it...occasionally even cheerfully.
but that is why they are being paid.
Bah, humbug.
