Your story reminds me of when I worked at a particular company in north Seattle. Every year we held a company picnic at this beautiful park during a fair, and the company would provide a certain number of tickets for rides and games. Eventually, t company finally pulled the plug on the annual picnic because the manufacturing people would sweep through the food lines and take huge portions of food they couldn’t even finish, so that the food was all gone before half of the attendees could even get any. The worst part of it all was that these people didn’t even throw away their garbage — the picnic tables were covered with plates that were piled high with food and people who didn’t even get food were left to clean up the mess. That was the last year they held the company picnic.

I don’t know why people are so inconsiderate and greedy. It’s just unbelievable to me.

That reminds me of when one of the hurricanes came rolling through a couple of years back. Most everyone had to stay home because of downed power lines and what not. The office was open, and I made it in ok, and as a thanks for showing up, all cafeteria purchases were paid for by the company that day, mainly to just pay for people’s breakfast and lunch. People were leaving the cafeteria with BAGS of food like it was a grocery store. It was the most pitiful sight I’ve ever seen.
