		russh on June 18, 2019 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: The worst morale-boosting gesture I've experienced My wife is a registered nurse and the facility she works for had a Christmas party "to recognize all the hard work" everyone did. At some point they did a raffle and handed out a total of 8 gift cards among the 200 employees at the party. Whatever. Her next pay stub had a deduction for $35 to cover the cost of that party and the "gifts" that were given.

I think this one has transcended the realm of bad gestures and ended up deep in the territory of illegal wage theft.

That can't be legal.

Oh God. That was very cheap. Don’t visit the home of the managers. They might charge you for the snack you were offered.
