And here I am taking off my entire birthday week off like a rube.
This is the way. I don’t even care if I can share most of it with anyone. Like a party or get together is nice perhaps but spending a week sitting around in my shorts, drinking garbage lager and playing vidja games from the past? 1 sick week out of the muddling other 51. Pretty good shit imo.
This picture is pure art. Holy shit.
Damn, is that a Lunchables UPLOADED!?
That same pizza is also given to those before a layoff I bet.
So they leave by themselves?
To keep everyone on edge.
I can’t decide if this is AI generated or if bro has size 38 shoes
Why would he still have on his phone headset during lunch too?
Is it a headset? They .ight just be cheap headphones, but you don’t really see those anymore
If he is working at a place that requires steel or composite toes they will also look like clown shoes.
He’s clearly a big guy, look how far his legs extend past the edge of a normal chair.
Jesus it’s wild to think people would assume I’m an AI generated image based off of the fact that I wear a size 15 US (49 Euro).
Sure, that’s what an AI generated image would say
… This is an AI pic and a probably fake description to go with it
There’s some wonkyness here, that’s for sure. The major thing that makes this look legit is that the mirror is dirty and it has a correct reflection for the person’s arm and the trashcan.
The first time I saw this pic, it had enough pixels to see it really looked real, at least to me
Higher res shows he has a plaster and the shelf is balancing on another shelf
The more I look into the high-res picture, the more mildly bleak details I notice.
- Torn plastic wrapping of tiny plastic bottles on the chipboard counter.
- His sleeve is mildly dirty.
- The shoes on the shelf seem awkward to access over the chair.
- The whiteboard has permanently marked spots “use me to write” and “use me to clean”, both empty.
- That “pizza” is barely an oversized muffin.
- Fire prohibited.
- The mirror is pretty dirty.
- Corner of the steel cabinet is a bit bent.
- The badly attached sheet of paper hanging from the whiteboard; you can’t read anything.
- On the top shelf of the cupboard, something is kinda balancing there.
- Cheap plates not perfectly aligned.
- ROTATE:
- ROTATE
- ROTATE
- ROTATE
- The pedal on the trash bin is weirdly bent.
Not that any of this really matters, though.
I mean, I wouldn’t expect a supermarket break room to be immaculately kept. It actually looks alright. Depends on how good of a place it is to work, etc. My guess is that most employees usually book their birthday off, this guy didn’t (some people just don’t bother, which is understandable) and some colleague was like “we had to do something”, so got a pizza from what they were allowed. I think there are pictures far more depressing than this (like Amazon’s Christmas dinner which was probably an actual big organised thing for a mass amount of people).
I know someone who works in a supermarket and colleagues usually give them a nice cake, but it’s passed its sell-by by a few days. It sounds depressing, but the cake is perfectly fine and would just be thrown out due to policy.
I think I saw it before AI became that good
Green box is pushed against the wall like the shelf it’s on but somehow has more overhang on one side?
Where does the door frame siding go that runs from the floor up to the top of the wall? It just becomes wall
You nailed it with this one, it’s 100% AI
Quite a clear line
And the shoes (which are abnormally large) don’t look like any work boots I’ve ever seen, resembling trail running shoes but bigger. The laces seem to be oddly non-existent and instead the straps for lacing them appear to connect with each other.
AI can get reflections right, just when it doesn’t it can be very creepy.
What about this picture makes you think it’s AI?
Left hand has a pinky/ring finger thing, the garbage can angle looks off because it comes towards you but the angle of the wall is going the other direction and if it’s against the wall, it would follow the angle of the wall
Edit to add more since I’m on mobile swapping between the two (inefficiently): the weird blue coat thing going down the back of the chair, seemingly no back legs to the chairs
Foot pedal of the garbage can is misaligned
I’m on mobile, so maybe the photo isn’t loading at high resolution, but I don’t think your points lead me to believe AI generated this.
The finger looks a little odd, but it could just be the way the shadows fell. The garbage can doesn’t look flat against the wall. If you look in the reflection of the mirror, one corner is closer to the wall than the other, which would account for the distortion you mentioned. The blue coat of the back of the chair might just be a coat. The chair legs seem like they should be behind his leg and the trash can. The foot pedal on a plastic trash doesn’t seem like the sturdiest thing and can just bend. The lid seems symmetrical to me personally. There just aren’t enough pixels in the image for me to see if there are buttons or not.
Maybe I’m completely wrong and it is AI, but it seems to me like too many of the fine details match up with reality. It may also be the low resolution that makes things seem more realistic. If it is a fake image, I think it would be more likely that the photo was taken out of context or staged.
I mean it’s possible it’s real. But the seat of his chair has no leg under his butt cheek. If you zoom in and look at where the seat is going, you would expect a leg there at least to be visible
The reflection in the mirror makes me think this is surely real. Even the best AIs don’t understand mirrors
This is not real.
Any reason he should not have come in during his birthday?
Because he had the day off, then came in anyway presumably because they called him in?
So, just making random shit up?
Id definitely read that as “coming in on his birthday, which he’d priorly arranged to have off”.
I asked because it sounded like a very common thing to do. Where I live the person celebrating is supposed to bring cake, snacks or something. He/she has plenty of time off, just not typical taken during one own birthday
Everyone should have PTO that they can use whenever they want.
Yes certainly.
We prefer taking days off around weekends or an entire week for holidays (valid for the part of Europe I been). But talking your birthday off is not particularly common practice although nothing is stopping you if you want to.
The “loving your work” poster behind him as well…
And the trash can right next to him
That’s where the happiness goes.
But look how vibrant and happy the chairs are. What a crazy fun workplace.
The hard plastic chairs with no cushion that break when you sit down too fast.
And his headset’s still on
Chef’s kiss. 👌
That’s a man considering a new career.
Ate without table -3
That should easily be -30.
Making someone eat without a table is a war crime.
At least there are no laws on the RimAte human meat -5
Ate without table -60
not having a cannibal colony
We should totally overthrow the ruling class and establish a workers paradise, in Rimworld of course
Defiant Jazz!
Can’t wait for season 2
Show?
Severance. It’s on Apple TV, but it’s definitely worth watching
2nded
Same. I think I have the wrong food reward party though
Bro that looks like a waffle with syrup wth kinda pizza even is that
microwaved, not even toasted
Toasted?!
waffles? yes. pizza? toaster oven, yes.
Anyone who willingly associates with Raw Egg Nationalist deserves this fate tbh
I got called in for an inventory audit on my birthday and ended up working from 8am to 2am the following morning.
What kind of pizza did you get?
Not even a nice pizza either, that’s clearly just a shitty microwave pizza
Prolly Altoona pizza.
Nah, that’s a Tesco uniform so probably UK. It’ll be a Chicago Town mini pizza.
Wow, this looks unappetizing even in the company’s professionally-photographed marketing pages: https://chicagotown.com/the-range/deep-dish
Never heard of this brand before, and they claim to be the “number 1 pizza brand in America”.
The more I look at this pizza, the more I feels bad for the guy in the picture. I’m so sorry your life turned out this way, Cecil.
Crusts go rock hard and the rest is too piping hot to eat out of the microwave. There’s a significant proportion of British people of a certain ages who’s formative impression of American pizza is this.
What’s even more depressing is they come in packs of 2 and he’s only been given one of them.
The second is given to the team to split onto everyone and celebrate, too
Truly Tesco’s generosity knows no bounds.
