Posts which titles don’t match the source won’t be removed, but the autoMod will notify you, and if your title misrepresents the original article, the post will be deleted. If the site changed their headline, the bot might still contact you, just ignore it, we won’t delete your post.

So you were told to get fucked?
Checks out lol
They would not let you take it home?
Officially, no. But when you're the last truck to get back at 3am, nobody's gonna stop me. Every once in a while they would look the other way, but it honestly depended on their mood more than anything else
i get the official position, IRS could deem it income with everything that comes with that
so arbitrary enforcement of policy, corpo world 101
I mean, I get it too, but I was also throwing away enough food to feed at least a dozen people (usually much more) every single day. To make it worse, I drove by at LEAST 2-4 unhoused persons on the way back to the shop (not even counting my drive back home)
My wedding had a food minimum.
We come from big Italian families, in multiple meanings of the word. There was still so much food. Hors d'oeuvres, cheese board, crudites, bread tray, 3 courses, dessert...and then 11 o clock hits and the last food comes out. Pizza. So much fucking pizza.
I'd never seen so much food waste in one place. I really hated that there was a food minimum. The venue itself was cheap, and nice, but I'm certainly not getting married there again.
