I work as a janitor at a hospital and for x-mas they give everyone a $20 gift card to Subway.

For janitor appreciation day, our boss wrote an email, printed it out, and taped it to their office door.

My bosses have zero idea how to boost moral. They're all a bunch of fucking scumbags and that don't give a shit about their employees, so I've stopped giving a shit about doing my work.

@Ankha, I always think of you when I consider how the night shift gets picked over cold pizza from the day shift. You freakin' nailed that.

That kind of stuff genuinely ticks me off.

We recently had something similar at my job. Some BS aPpReCiAtiOn breakfast but its like with the way my company is structured, my dept. is the only one that HAS to sit on the phone all day. So its like great, thanks for this event that I cant even participate in because heaven forbid I step away from my desk for five minutes.

Either earlier this year or late last year, my company gave us $50 gift cards, which is essentially less than 3 hours of (untaxed) pay.

I love when my office does stuff like that. But I work for the State of California, so it's a little different. It's government, so management has to come out of pocket, which means it's dependent on how much they're willing to spend.

Like at my old department, the management there made $180k-200k, so they took us to yard house and said "Order whatever you want, it's on us."

And rightfully so.

They wanna make sure you know your place, and it's not with them.

My old workplace was a shitshow, but the one thing Ill give them is that when they did the free lunch once a month, they did it for all shifts. One for dayshift, one for night, and one for weekend. No one got shafted.

Still would rather have money though.

Pizza Party! Why give out costly raises when we can get a few $6 Little Caesars pizzas? Sure, we're a multi billion dollar company who could easily afford to give raises to everyone without much of a hit, but why do that when PIZZA is the true and cheapest answer!

Please don't unionize. :(

My workplace really isn't equipped for everybody at the same time. There's barely space to park between the day shift and swing shift overlap.

Picked over pizza at best. It's usually something like sandwiches that have been sitting out for 12 hours that might not give you the shits if you dare eat one.

Yup, did that too. Sandwich platters that show up at 12:00, your shift is to close.
Companies should do two orders if they are going to do anything at all.
~Night shift and closers are far too often considered second-rate citizens.
