reason number 41 why work is lame

I'd like to know why the company thinks giving us a $50 budget will do any good. We've got 13 people, so that's roughly $3.84 per person. From this we need decorations, plates & cutlery, appetizers, a main dish and dessert? Enough to provide samples for more than 50 people? Um yeah. Right. Peevishly, they have decided only one person may spend this money but I'll be damned if I let our twittering group captain purchase my pie making materials.

I can see you're hard at work. And what is this? $50 for an office party? They must be kidding.

Oh yes. Very hard. I have 30 certs done...

It's ridiculous, especially in light of things they have done at other 3rd quarter meetings like take everyone bowling.
