Welcome to Tuesday

Welcome to another day at the office. This was supposed to be a real short week… just work on Monday and have the rest of the week off… but yesterday, I was selected for the Thanksgiving Lunch Torture.

Every year my company has a Thanksgiving Lunch in the break room, which is about twice the size of my bedroom closet. The company usually splurges for something like sliced turkey from the local grocery store deli, and the employees are expected to bring everything else. How special.

Last year, so many people brought dessert, we were eating sweets well into December. This year, someone got smart and put up a signup sheet. However, it seems that most people forgot to sign up for something, so now there’s not nearly as much goodness as there was last year.

Why do companies insist on having Thanksgiving Lunch Torture? It’s funny how the departments break back up into their own cliques as soon as the food is served. I eat with these people Monday through Friday everyday… what makes this so special? Oh yeah… the food is free. Too bad there’s no alcohol at this “party”…. I could use some right now.
