Tipping culture is really getting out of control! Waiter gave me ‘a look’ because I tipped her 10% for ‘BAD service!’
I definitely had a nice chicken in my food
No dessert.
Dessert was outside in the lot! Had good cookies and mini donuts
You all must be ex-Microsofties, you could compete with the entitled bitching about free stuff with the best of us
Lorde was the only reason I was tempted this year. But remembering last year with lame food (don’t we deserve better than the lackluster cafe food at this party?) Even she wasn’t enough to coax me out. Frugality is a wormy way to say we make billions but are still too cheap to take good care of our people. No doubt attendees at re:Invent get the real party, not the folks who make those big gatherings possible in the first place.
Wtf lorde came to an amazon party!?
I would have liked someone with more energetic songs than Lorde. Nothing like 5,000 people standing completely still in a mosh pit together...
Party in January to save money?
Party in January so nobody is distracted during the All-important holiday shopping season.
That's not a legit excuse. I doubt any companies Xmas party are so awesome workers can't think of anything else. Knowing amzn, probably has to do with venues and entertainers charging 2-3x fees for Dec.
Haha, Jeff has $130 billion dollars.
Been to several of these, last night will be the last one. Just way too crowded to enjoy any of it. I don’t think there’s anything Amazon can really do about it, it’s a massive group to accommodate. The food is always going to be mediocre. How do you feed...40k...50k....people? Stadium food. And that’s never going to be great. They make a good effort to have lots of activities and get a good act/singer. Appreciate the efforts, but it’s just not worth fighting the crowds.
Umm... Everything?
lorde is good
Yup!
