      I’m a lactose free, gluten free, keto vegetarian who’s allergic to water - could you point me to the HR approved table of sadness for my slice?

            My whinge the past few days isn’t about any one person, it’s the mixture that makes for the headache. 1 person this, another person, that, so almost nothing can be prepped in a single go. My no allium friend is the biggest pain honestly. Those hide in everything!

              I require the sweet pineapple… What tasks are on offer?

              Edit: If you give me a slice that isn’t lactose free I’ll also provide many containers of natural gas. Completely renewable resource. Don’t ask how

                For your service to the company’s energy bill, you will be given one (1) slice of Hawaiian pizza extra cheese after working eleven hours, instead of twelve.

      That sounds like the meal allowance clause in my EBA!

      Except we do actually get enough to cover a decent meal, so it is a nice little bonus if you stay back.

        I was surprised to see the meal allowance when I did overtime. It is indeed enough to cover a sandwich and a drink from the company pantry.

          You have a company pantry ?! We have one shop within walking distance and a food truck that visits on weekdays. The meal allowance is actually pretty good, a bit over $20 I think. It tends to only be something we get if we come in for a short OT shift and it gets extended. If I’m open to doing that I generally take food in so I can pocket the meal allowance instead of spending it 🙂💰

            Meal allowance is half hour pay. Pantry may or may not be stocked with proper food but there are always drinks and milk.
