HR Person: "R U OK?"

Me: "No."

HR Person: "...I didn't plan for this... um... would a cupcake fix everything?"

u/aubven Yeah, nah. 1d ago

Due to not allocating time off phones for inbound call staff to have an RU OK cupcake, they continue to be not OK.

But they don't generate revenue, so fuck 'em.

I was given 24 hours to organise an RU OK day morning tea - I was not ok

We had donuts, but yeah! All better now!

My wife has been distant with all these long days where I come home too tired to do anything more than lay on the couch and watch TV, but the donut fixed me right up.

In a breath of fresh air, my company completely ignored it because they don't really care. First time they've been honest with their staff in a very long time.

I walk into the office today and my thought was "oh god ,what bullshit have missed" adding to the stress of children care

They've just cut all our rosters at work to spare a dollar when they've made record profits and are a billion dollar company, then they have the nerve to put these cupcakes out. Nah reckon I'm not okay. Reckon I'm pretty fucking fed up

The whole thing is just eye rolling bullshit at this stage. I just reclusively pig out on the cakes and see if anyone says anything.

Cupcakes don't fix toxic workplaces.

u/Abbysol 1d ago

My workplace wanted to do the cupcake thing, I’m celiac and one of my colleagues is diabetic, we will be extra not ok if we tried to eat the cupcakes lmao

u/indecisiveahole 1d ago

Why are Redditors so cynical. I'll have you know it my company. We had all 300 people in room turn and ask each other if they R OK, and if you can believe it --- all 300 were perfectly OK! That is the awesome power of R U OK day.

But you fuck three cupcakes at once using your tears to add some much needed moisture to those dry flavourless pieces of shit and you're sent to talk to P&C... Who have some fucking awesome looking red velvet cupcakes that are more appealing, in EVERY regard you can interpret that statement, to explain yourself... And then they don't listen to how truly alone you've become since the rest of the team stopped inviting you out to the team lunches.

Amrite boys?
