Your input on Pot Luck Meals at work.?

Isn't it sad she needs to be so unkind. I hope others stood up and welcomed everyone whether they brought food or not.

Merry Christmas!

At my work we had a pot luck too it is a small company too about 27 people. Basically we say if you can bring something bring it, and if you can't you can still enjoy the pot luck. Unfortunately not everyone can afford to bring something and we don't want to put that stress on them, but we still want to celebrate the wonderful time together and usually there is always more than enough to go around.

It seems some people don't understand the meaning of kindness and giving....and understand that some people might not able to bring something.

the people bringing food should be generous and enjoy a Christmas gathering. That is wrong ofthem to make an unfair rule. If I could not make a dish I would not go

I agree with this Totally! Some people cant' afford to bring too much. They should no way be excluded. We have this thing at work that if you don't bring something you have to be at the end of the line to get anything. That is Not right way to celebrate!

She sounds like a *****...merry Christmas

It was like that at my old job, the same people who brought nothing, usually young men, were first to line up and eat alot of food.

Sometimes there was not much left for those at the end of the line.

They eventually began bringing a litter of pop or bag of chips.

We never turned anyone away though...

The moment she said that I would have challenged her, but then I am very outspoken.

all I can say is she is incredibly rude and insensitive.

Merry Christmas Mister! :)

I think your colleague has missed the point entirely.

What a sad, mean little life she must lead.
