Classic "You could buy a PlayStation if you didn't pay union dues!" message. And with AI art to make it extra gross.

It takes literally 2 seconds to debunk, with the shortest possible walk of logic. If you got a raise, you would spend exactly that amount every pay period buying pizza, and would never, ever use it for anything else...?
"Artist" using AI generated pizza picture
Oof, that collarbone
Shoving pizza up their nose
Holding pizza like a plate
Strap disappears mid-way
(mentioned) collarbone
Yah AI is in its early stages and should only be used for simpler tasks like military weapons systems and running the US government
Middle management AI when?
I was gonna say, that whole post is giving "boss cosplaying as an employee" vibes to me
I'd be surprised if the person is even real
I initially interpreted it as a joke, but you may be right.
Thank you for helping me to catch what this reminds me.
Except it was a bit sharper difference between what they were and what they played.
Lol, look at how she's holding it.
So many things wrong with one post. Shitty AI image, gargling on corporate balls, probably a sockpuppet account, terribly distributed jalapeños, calling themselves an "artist".
A "custom artist", even. Whatever that is.
Is she picking her nose with that pizza?
I'm trying to decide whether this is some poor attempt at propaganda or a poorly executed joke.
Judging by the AI generated pictures and the “artist” bit, my money is on them being a “prompt engineer” attempting to suck up to their bosses to delay their inevitable firing once they realize they might as well cut out the middleman.
I checked their profile to make sure wasn’t a parody account and most posts seem normal so i also can’t tell
Imma say, both.
What an ugly AI image.
I hold pizza sort of floaty above my hand like that.
Idk I like how her shoulder emulates a coat hanger, obviously a step forward in human evolution.
Man, I'm annoyed because my job has a fun budget of like $1000 which has nothing to do with raises.
And they're terrified of using that money to make a pizza party because of the backlash. So instead, they spend that money on buying dumb ass posters and hats for people with positive encouragement.
So thanks to these memes, instead of drowning in pizza, I get a Good Vibes trucker hat.
I found a meme that relates to the garbage I get now.
I do hope you said thank you and wear it every day to office.
Can you not tell the employees that you have it earmarked for that and ask for suggestions?
Why not do go-karts or something? Y'know, as long as it's during business hours.
Just an idea, visa gift cards. If you need to make it fun, make it a raffle.
We have pretty strict rules at my work about cash equivalents. I'd go with food.
Dude, pizza is not expensive, and it's also incredibly unhealthy. That's the reason there are memes. Just go buy a frozen pizza for $4 at the store. The store brands are really solid.

I guess if it was a daily unlimited good pizza party instead of a small raise given as long as I had the job; then maybe it would be a better deal.
If I'm either getting an extra $100 a month or $20 of pizza every day.. I think pizza wins.
What are the chances we get daily free pizza?
If it's not daily: I'd take the money. If daily: I'd have to think about it.
If you read this far and it's not clear: I'm joking.
I strongly believe this is a bot
Here's hoping.
After decades of playing 'ZA' in Scrabble, this is literally the first time I've ever seen someone use it in a sentence.

Oh boy! Here's your second then:
South Africa's Internet top-level domain is .za!
Maybe I want some tequila with my pizza. Maybe I like a set of toppings that never gets ordered at a pizza party. Maybe I want to hire a hooker to feed me the pizza. Wanting cash instead of pizza enables all of this and more.
Eat your single allocated slice of pizza, employee. Be grateful you're getting a pittance and go back to work. Bathroom breaks are now a privilege. The beatings will continue until morale improves.
I have only ever heard Za in reference to marijuana. Did it start as a pizza thing
Harry Dresden in the Dresden files books gives toot-toot (a fairy) some pizza. Toot then starts calling it za and eventually Dresden the za-lord.
That book came out in 2000.
So I'd assume the term "za" for pizza was was around at least 5-10 years prior.
I’ve only heard it in reference to pizza, but in like a Bill & Ted type voice so maybe it’s optimal use is stoned eating pizza
Definitely heard it called that at least as far back as the 90s. I assume it predates that, though.
