    Not eating the pizza would send a better message.

    Imagine the bosses throwing their employees a pizza party and the day ends and everyone goes home and no one has eaten a single slice.

      They’d just rant about ungrateful employees and internalize it as some kind of persecution, refusing to acknowledge the likely privilege they’ve enjoyed their entire life.

      I think getting people to turn down free pizza is a lot more difficult than getting them to join a union.

        I am fine with that. Honestly. Let’s stop trying to make work “fun” with things like pizza “parties” where you have 20 minutes to eat some cold pizza and then get back to work and make up for the time you spent eating the pizza.
