   Manager: Hey team- for your hard work tackling that nasty project, we're ordering out for the office! What do you want for dinner?

   Team: Oh cool! How about some Thai food with some healthy appetizers, fried pork and chicken, noodles, papaya salad, and mango dessert?

   Manager: Sounds yummy! I'll order a bowl of rice you all can share.

   Team: Won't that be too much?

   Manager: No. I'm only ordering the rice.

   Team: 🥺

   Manager: We appreciate your hard work, keep it coming! ☺️

     @RebelGeek99 Each team member can only have 5 grains of rice. The manager, the rest of the rice. Because ordering rice is hard work.

     @invadersil while it may sound like tyranny, some more moderate employees on a leadership track will defend the manager's decision because he could have just placed the call and not ordered anything at all. And then nobody would get any rice, even after all the effort of placing the call. Spoiled conceited employees insisting on more grains of rice simply don't understand how management works.
