Holiday activities

I was not rif'd but I am disgusted by the holiday activities that are being shoved down our throats. Most laid off employees are not gone yet and leaders are trying to shove "fun" events down our throats. Meanwhile, we are all so overloaded with work, that the idea of participating in a fun event just feels like another task that is being piled onto us. Now on top of all the extra work, you want me to cook for my coworkers too?

I’m delighted to celebrate delivering for our shareholders with my work family for the holidays. Eagerly awaiting Sam’s message of joy and cheer to unite our winning team. We’re the best in the business!

I’m impacted. I haven’t see anything about the holiday events or activities. Get to work. I’m still a shareholder and need to know those left behind are committed to delighting customers, not selfish holiday traditions ;).

Seriously though yall enjoy this time and family and friends. God bless

Nothing is shoved down your throat unless you allow it to be.

Its work not fun. Groups that can have parties should be replaced since everyone else works keeping things going.
