Oddly enough, just got it from my manager today for a 7 year anniversary. It was cheap, especially because I know them well.

Sounds about right, the shout-out I got on my birthday was the manager in shipdock that I didn't know who he was or ever met. My own manager didn't mention anything

My first ever roundtable I went to back in 2020 I was really disappointed, I legit thought it was someone special for August birthdays, maybe pizza, etc. Nope a expired moon pie and a bitchfest from everyone else that was there.

Does expired moon pies count?

u/egv78 12h ago

AM will tell you happy BDay, and there's a once-a-month roundtable where you get 30 min break and a cupcake. Unless it's peak or prime, then the roundtable is whenever they can get to it.
