I don't know if this fits this sub, but it's an interesting observation.
At work we have two break areas: one large for the hourly workers and one smaller one for the salaried office workers. I started providing coffee pods for both break rooms because morale here is super low and the company bought us a Keurig for each room but refused my request to start providing pods as well (even though I know other departments order them with their monthly supply orders, our department is just bottom tier because we don't make money).
Anyways, I started providing them for both rooms. Last week I was on vacation so I wasn't here to fill the little holders we have. Low and behold, when I got back today, the one in the hourly break room is full because people started bringing in their own large boxes to contribute. Some of them have also offered me money to help pay for them.
The one in the smaller break room, the room used by the executives, all of my bosses, people making 2x-3x+ more than me, is completely empty. I have gotten thank yous from some of the higher ups, but I've never been offered compensation and no one has contributed any pods.
It's just interesting to me that they could be using a small amount of their pay to make a huge difference here in morale and appreciation and instead they wonder why our retention rate is so low.
