Man Reveals How His Boss Spent Just Over Rs 160 Per Person In The World's Cheapest Christmas Party
A man has shared a photo of what could be the world's worst Christmas bash after his boss spent just ?1.60 per employee and served up instant noodles.
It's Christmas time and with that comes a series of parties including the one at our offices. Now even though we act like we don't like them, this party is something we look forward to.
But a man shared how he attended the cheapest office Christmas party where his boss spent just ?1.60 (Rs 161) per employee and served up instant noodles.
This man named Zach Mander said it had to be "the cheapest office Christmas party that ever existed". He recounted how the worst party unfolded in a video and said, "The call comes over the PA for everyone to go to the multi-purpose room for the Christmas party - which was the first red flag."
He said in a deadpan tone that the company of 20 employees served "one child's desk of sushi. Look at it sitting there. An island of disappointment," he said.
He then mentioned how the main course was instant noodles.
"I turned around to the wall I just came in on and behind me [was] the pyramid of two-minute noodle. This is the worst type of pyramid scheme. Like the pyramids of Giza is a tribute to dead pharaohs this pyramid was a tribute to my dead career."
He then estimated the company 'spent $3 (?1.60) per employee' on the not-so-fancy spread.
"Nothing says 'we value your services' like 'hey here¡¯s some loose change, pick it up off the ground'. I left soon after that - yes related."
The worker went on to say it was his "understanding" that the company has since gone bankrupt.
"It wasn¡¯t because they were spending too much on Christmas parties, I know that," he added.
The video got several very varied reactions.
One wrote: "Mate, I work for state government. We pay to go to our Christmas party."
Another joked: "My office party is tomorrow. I have to pay for my own food AND I¡¯m not getting paid for my time."
A third added: "We had to fill in a form to have it deducted from our January pay if we wanted to go."
At least it's better than an online Christmas party, right?
