Years ago, I used to work at this giant warehouse. It was my first real job and while it wasn’t the greatest company, the work was easy and the PTO generous. Each year, this company would put on a holiday party for the employees. It was onsite and the party started at noon. The company would have a catered lunch and basically just a dry party. Everyone could leave at 14:00 and still get paid until 15:30. Nothing spectacular, but not the worst way to spend a workday. Fast forward to June during which there was always a company wide meeting. When the VP opened up the floor to questions, one lady raised her hand. She asked why folks couldn’t leave at noon on the day of the holiday party. Keep in mind, she was asking this question in JUNE! The VP explained she could use PTO to which the lady got irate because why use vacation time for non-work. Then another moron piped up about the food; why couldn’t they have sub sandwiches available? Then another lady said some other dumb shit. Ultimately, the company cancelled the whole party and made it just a regular work day. Their reason? Too many complaints. Three complaints, that’s all it took for this company to cancel a decade long tradition. And the three morons who complained were gone long before December.
