Holding An Orgy Isn’t The Ideal Way To Thank Your Employees


Showing appreciation to hard-working staff is a great idea, and parties aren’t an uncommon way to do that. But we can’t imagine that the HR department at reinsurance firm Munich Re ever officially signed off on a plan which saw executives and salesmen rewarded with an orgy featuring 100 guests and 20 prostitutes at a sauna in Budapest.

You can read the full details of the incident, which happened in 2007 but has only just come to light, at the BBC News link below. What it has me wondering is: what’s the most unusual or inappropriate “thank you” experience or gift you’ve ever received from an employer? Share your cringe-worthy (or career-changing) moments in the comments.
