Pizza Parties AT Work

Even though it's almost a decade since the heydays of the dot com boom, there is an idiosyncrasy that continues to exist in my industry -that of ordering Pizza if working late/over the weekend etc. So we have blokes (mostly) and a few ladies (sometimes) indulge in what looks like a cheese orgies a la Asterix in Switzerland :) Now here's the best part (or worst - depending on your POV) - these Pizza parties are held in meeting rooms which have just been cleaned up by housekeeping! The best part: Some brave soul actually goes and tells the pissed of housekeeping guy not to worry - we will clean up .... a statement which has as much truth as folks running their car on water!

Now the folks who eat the most are the ones who are, as Bertie Wooster would have described, "well nourished"! So one can always rely on hearing somebody say something on the lines of "I will go to the gym from now on" or "I need to go to the gym" or words to that effect.

In the end, the most junior of the lot play the janitor and try to restore the meeting room to its original state - a job so well done to make the boss cuss the housekeeping staff the next day
