We have a thing in this office called bagel club where you join and then everyone has to take turns bringing in bagels for everyone in the club on Fridays. Basically when new people start they get an email enticing them to join.
“Heyyy, we all take turns bringing in bagels for one another on Fridays. Some people even go the extra mile and bring munchkins, too. It’s really fun! Who doesn’t love bagels? Everyone loves bagels!” So people get hoodwinked and join the club thinking it’s all flowers and rainbows, but it’s not. There is a very dark side to bagel club. If its your turn and you don’t deliver the bagels for some reason everyone goes MENTAL.
Once Y. called in sick on his bagel day and told everyone he was sorry and would bring them on Monday but it was too late, they all turned on him and ostracized him from the group and he eventually had to quit. (bagel club, not his job) S. showed up on her bagel day without the goods once and was sent out immediately to “make it right.”
Bagel club is a lot of pressure so I dropped out long ago. If I want a bagel, I will stop and get myself a personal bagel. Ok, ok – today I stole a rogue bagel that was left in the kitchen. They just smell so good…
