In this story, a former factory employee recounted how a colleague had taken drastic measures after feeling slighted by the company for not being included in a perk they had offered. On a day she didn't work, they had a lot of extra employees, and as a result, had decided to order pizza for everyone who was working that day.
When this woman found out that this had happened on her day off, she complained to HR and demanded that they serve pizza again within the week. This didn't happen, and the fallout afterwards was something to behold.

63-year-old part-time employee quits after company orders pizza on day with extra staff that she didn't work: 'She marched right to HR'
It is the small gestures that make or break a job.
Perhaps the position is poorly paid and stressful, but you have a coworker you are friendly with who makes the whole experience just about bearable. Or maybe you are working on a project you hate, but you get to expense fancy business lunches with no questions asked.
Many employers know and understand that a little positive can do a lot to outweigh a big negative, and they engage with this by offering them now and then. While these supposed perks do not always get taken as such, they get taken seriously by a lot of employees. So seriously, in fact, that if they feel like they have missed out on a nice thing that their company is offering, they take serious action. Nobody wants to feel like they are missing out, or even worse, that they have deliberately been discriminated.
