That’s a man considering a new career.
I got called in for an inventory audit on my birthday and ended up working from 8am to 2am the following morning.
What kind of pizza did you get?
Most commenters here don’t appreciate how sad the image really is: the headset is playing some corporate prefabricated Happy Birthday message, starting and ending with “Loving your work.” company motto accompanied with nothingmusic in background.
This is Tesco. I heavily doubt they do that. The pizza is probably just something a colleague came up with than an actual policy thing.
Bro that looks like a waffle with syrup wth kinda pizza even is that
microwaved, not even toasted
Toasted?!
waffles? yes. pizza? toaster oven, yes.
The pizza isn’t the saddest part, it’s their terrible break room setup. Two chairs uncomfortably close in the corner, sandwiched between a shoe rack that people might need to access and a trash can. Probably designed by the same people who design their cars…
Damn, is that a Lunchables UPLOADED!?
I can’t decide if this is AI generated or if bro has size 38 shoes
Why would he still have on his phone headset during lunch too?
Is it a headset? They .ight just be cheap headphones, but you don’t really see those anymore
If he is working at a place that requires steel or composite toes they will also look like clown shoes.
He’s clearly a big guy, look how far his legs extend past the edge of a normal chair.
Jesus it’s wild to think people would assume I’m an AI generated image based off of the fact that I wear a size 15 US (49 Euro).
Sure, that’s what an AI generated image would say
That same pizza is also given to those before a layoff I bet.
So they leave by themselves?
To keep everyone on edge.
… This is an AI pic and a probably fake description to go with it
This is not real.
There’s some wonkyness here, that’s for sure. The major thing that makes this look legit is that the mirror is dirty and it has a correct reflection for the person’s arm and the trashcan.
I think I saw it before AI became that good
And the shoes (which are abnormally large) don’t look like any work boots I’ve ever seen, resembling trail running shoes but bigger. The laces seem to be oddly non-existent and instead the straps for lacing them appear to connect with each other.
AI can get reflections right, just when it doesn’t it can be very creepy.
The first time I saw this pic, it had enough pixels to see it really looked real, at least to me
Higher res shows he has a plaster and the shelf is balancing on another shelf
The more I look into the high-res picture, the more mildly bleak details I notice.
- Torn plastic wrapping of tiny plastic bottles on the chipboard counter.
- His sleeve is mildly dirty.
- The shoes on the shelf seem awkward to access over the chair.
- The whiteboard has permanently marked spots “use me to write” and “use me to clean”, both empty.
- That “pizza” is barely an oversized muffin.
- Fire prohibited.
- The mirror is pretty dirty.
- Corner of the steel cabinet is a bit bent.
- The badly attached sheet of paper hanging from the whiteboard; you can’t read anything.
- On the top shelf of the cupboard, something is kinda balancing there.
- Cheap plates not perfectly aligned.
- ROTATE:
- ROTATE
- ROTATE
- ROTATE
- The pedal on the trash bin is weirdly bent.
Not that any of this really matters, though.
I mean, I wouldn’t expect a supermarket break room to be immaculately kept. It actually looks alright. Depends on how good of a place it is to work, etc. My guess is that most employees usually book their birthday off, this guy didn’t (some people just don’t bother, which is understandable) and some colleague was like “we had to do something”, so got a pizza from what they were allowed. I think there are pictures far more depressing than this (like Amazon’s Christmas dinner which was probably an actual big organised thing for a mass amount of people).
I know someone who works in a supermarket and colleagues usually give them a nice cake, but it’s passed its sell-by by a few days. It sounds depressing, but the cake is perfectly fine and would just be thrown out due to policy.
Green box is pushed against the wall like the shelf it’s on but somehow has more overhang on one side?
Where does the door frame siding go that runs from the floor up to the top of the wall? It just becomes wall
You nailed it with this one, it’s 100% AI
Quite a clear line
What about this picture makes you think it’s AI?
Left hand has a pinky/ring finger thing, the garbage can angle looks off because it comes towards you but the angle of the wall is going the other direction and if it’s against the wall, it would follow the angle of the wall
Edit to add more since I’m on mobile swapping between the two (inefficiently): the weird blue coat thing going down the back of the chair, seemingly no back legs to the chairs
Foot pedal of the garbage can is misaligned
I’m on mobile, so maybe the photo isn’t loading at high resolution, but I don’t think your points lead me to believe AI generated this.
The finger looks a little odd, but it could just be the way the shadows fell. The garbage can doesn’t look flat against the wall. If you look in the reflection of the mirror, one corner is closer to the wall than the other, which would account for the distortion you mentioned. The blue coat of the back of the chair might just be a coat. The chair legs seem like they should be behind his leg and the trash can. The foot pedal on a plastic trash doesn’t seem like the sturdiest thing and can just bend. The lid seems symmetrical to me personally. There just aren’t enough pixels in the image for me to see if there are buttons or not.
Maybe I’m completely wrong and it is AI, but it seems to me like too many of the fine details match up with reality. It may also be the low resolution that makes things seem more realistic. If it is a fake image, I think it would be more likely that the photo was taken out of context or staged.
I mean it’s possible it’s real. But the seat of his chair has no leg under his butt cheek. If you zoom in and look at where the seat is going, you would expect a leg there at least to be visible
The reflection in the mirror makes me think this is surely real. Even the best AIs don’t understand mirrors
Who needs table when you are truly “Loving your work.”.
Anyone who willingly associates with Raw Egg Nationalist deserves this fate tbh
Not even a nice pizza either, that’s clearly just a shitty microwave pizza
Prolly Altoona pizza.
Nah, that’s a Tesco uniform so probably UK. It’ll be a Chicago Town mini pizza.
Wow, this looks unappetizing even in the company’s professionally-photographed marketing pages: https://chicagotown.com/the-range/deep-dish
Never heard of this brand before, and they claim to be the “number 1 pizza brand in America”.
The more I look at this pizza, the more I feels bad for the guy in the picture. I’m so sorry your life turned out this way, Cecil.
Crusts go rock hard and the rest is too piping hot to eat out of the microwave. There’s a significant proportion of British people of a certain ages who’s formative impression of American pizza is this.
What’s even more depressing is they come in packs of 2 and he’s only been given one of them.
The second is given to the team to split onto everyone and celebrate, too
Truly Tesco’s generosity knows no bounds.
Do people usually stay home for their birthday? I didn’t know of any companies that specifically give you off, so I’d think you’d use PTO.
My workplace gives you a free day within a month of your birthday. Most people take the closest Monday or Friday to get a three day weekend, but some people are lucky and get to bump a three to a four.
My birthday is on a holiday week, so I usually take the whole week off.
Mine is usually on labor day so I take the month of September off
what the hell is a holiday week and how do I get one of those
I interpreted it as a week with a holiday. If you get labor day off, taking the rest of the week gets you 9 days off for 4 days PTO.
Likewise, if your birthday is near there and you get it for free, it’s 9 days for 3 days PTO.Yes exactly, efficient use of PTO
Move to Europe
Yeah, I really have no particular interest in taking my birthday off.
I’ll take your birthday off for you.
At least buy me dinner first.
No more birthdays… Loads shotgun
Delay, defend, depose?
I know several (small) companies that give you 8 hours PTO on your birthday. You can use it immediately or save it for later.
I’ve never really given much of a shit personally.
What’s wrong with taking off? I do it every chance I get. Screw em, they take enough of my time, and I refuse to go a year where I leave any time unused.
Yeah that’s fine, I try to use all my paid time off to, I just usually take it in larger chunks with family.
I’ve never worked on my birthday
I’ve never heard of a company giving you your birthday off either. But it’s the only day every year that I feel special, so I always use vacation time to have that day off. And usually a couple of days surrounding it too.
My company originally said you got two free days off per year, outside the accrued PTO: one for your birthday, and one for parity because office #2 got a state holiday that #1 didn’t.
Now they moved to the “unlimited PTO” gimmick which has no right answer for how much time you can take off, so I follow the old PTO accrual schedule for my seniority as a guide.
I’d almost prefer if they didn’t give notice to my birthday if I got that pizza
Ate without table -3
That should easily be -30.
Making someone eat without a table is a war crime.
At least there are no laws on the RimWe should totally overthrow the ruling class and establish a workers paradise, in Rimworld of course
Ate human meat -5
Ate without table -60
not having a cannibal colony
