How to add injury to insult: Five United Airlines employees at O’Hare Airport, who were working on the Thanksgiving holiday, seemingly got food poisoning from the airline-sponsored turkey dinner.
The likely culprit? Turkey that didn’t “smell quite right.”
(The airline-food joke is just too easy. It’s just sitting there. You’re thinking it, I know.)
On the bright side, perhaps the employees will get worker’s comp as well as overtime. Whoo.
It was a well-meant gesture on the company’s part, and an effort to mend fences with a thoroughly disgruntled group of employees. Well-played.
Despite their nausea, three of the five nauseous employees returned to work. Something tells me they weren’t picking at the leftovers in the staff lounge later that day.
