Apparently, birthdays in a corporate environment are a little different from birthdays elsewhere. Today was the designated "birthday" for people born in July. There was much talk from my officemates about how awesome the company birthdays were so I was curious as to what it was all about. 2 pm rolls around and it's time to attend this birthday. I was expecting some decoration, some festivities, maybe a song or two.
I was sadly mistaken. The entire "party" consisted of our going there, taking a birthday...pretzel? (actually quite good) and leaving without even uttering a "happy birthday" or making any small talk with the sparse crowd that had gathered. What a way to age another year!

Ya, gotta love those corporate enviros. Birthday "pretzel" eh? Even people who didn't have a birthday get to eat one?
So basically, the company gives out free pretzels once a month, and conveniently labels the event as a communal birthday celebration. So awesome.
