      This is the way. I don’t even care if I can share most of it with anyone. Like a party or get together is nice perhaps but spending a week sitting around in my shorts, drinking garbage lager and playing vidja games from the past? 1 sick week out of the muddling other 51. Pretty good shit imo.

    Most commenters here don’t appreciate how sad the image really is: the headset is playing some corporate prefabricated Happy Birthday message, starting and ending with “Loving your work.” company motto accompanied with nothingmusic in background.

      This is Tesco. I heavily doubt they do that. The pizza is probably just something a colleague came up with than an actual policy thing.

          Wow, this looks unappetizing even in the company’s professionally-photographed marketing pages: https://chicagotown.com/the-range/deep-dish

          Never heard of this brand before, and they claim to be the “number 1 pizza brand in America”.

          The more I look at this pizza, the more I feels bad for the guy in the picture. I’m so sorry your life turned out this way, Cecil.

            Crusts go rock hard and the rest is too piping hot to eat out of the microwave. There’s a significant proportion of British people of a certain ages who’s formative impression of American pizza is this.

    The pizza isn’t the saddest part, it’s their terrible break room setup. Two chairs uncomfortably close in the corner, sandwiched between a shoe rack that people might need to access and a trash can. Probably designed by the same people who design their cars…

      He’s clearly a big guy, look how far his legs extend past the edge of a normal chair.

      Jesus it’s wild to think people would assume I’m an AI generated image based off of the fact that I wear a size 15 US (49 Euro).

      We get birthdays off, not counting towards the 30 days paid holidays, which is completely separate from unlimited paid sick days. Oh, and also since last Wednesday, the entire company is on holidays, we’re back 2nd week of January. Doesn’t count towards the 30 days, of course 👍

      It says “shift leader”. Shift work jobs have some flexibility for days off anyway, and if the management is nice they schedule the week so your birthday is free.

      There are also some places that might just do a nice, if not grandiose, gesture for someone on their birthday.

      Previous place I worked it was pretty routine for a manager to grab one of those containers of store made cupcakes if it was someone’s birthday and they knew they didn’t mind, make sure they got one and leave the rest in the break room.
      Never anything more or less than just a nice gesture.

      I’m guessing someone tried a nice gesture and it came out looking sad, so they posed for a picture for a chuckle and moved in. I don’t know anyone who would be really upset by being given a pizza bagel on their birthday.
