8) HR once booked a meeting with those visible meeting room screens, this one showed the titles for some reason. The title had the word 'Layoffs' in it and someone saw it as they were checking the room for availability. HR then had to send a letter saying there were no layoffs, then a few months latter laid off the finance department cause they were moving them to Iowa (the dept, not the people).

ive never heard of this being successful at any company but also who the gently caress drinks three sodas a day

we have free cans of soda in the fridge in the break room and it seems to work ok? about 350 people in the office combine to drink probably 50 cans or so per day total. if they started rationing and giving tickets i imagine people would end up drinking more
