PotSuck is more like it.

Every year, Company X rewards its hardworking employees by throwing a holiday potluck; and this year, (due to significant budget cuts) the company has volunteered to provide only the entree, leaving the departments with the responsibility of bringing appetizers, desserts, and drinks.

In the few years that I have worked here, holiday potlucks have ranged from pizzas to Subway sandwiches-all which were very well received and popular among potluck attendees; and more importantly, popular to my tummy.

But times are changing here at Company X, and for the past six months, management has been enthusiastically pushing a "Get Healthy" initiative, encouraging employees to walk, eat healthy and receive routine check-ups with our doctors. This I don't mind, because frankly there are people in this company who can hardly climb a flight of stairs, and who need to start taking some responsibility for their health. However, as firm of a believer in healthy living as I am, I do not think that this "good health" kick should extend into our holiday potlucks.

It's the holidays for God's sake, and if I want a frosted cookie in the shape of a snowflake, well dammit I think the company should have that for us. That being said, do you want to know what the company is providing for us as an this year's holiday potluck entree?

Grilled Chicken.

That's right, grilled chicken-and nothing else.

What a rip off!
