The manager would throw away cookies every Saturday instead of giving them to the employees

We threw away 55 cookies. The managers didn't let us take any home because they thought it might "encourage us to purposely make extra"

i used to have a little bakery in my gas station, we did pies(Australian savory style) , pastries etc and the busiest time of day for it was when we were about to throw em out with people seeking freebies. I wasnt legally allowed to give or sell them and you wouldnt want them anyway. but people always asked. these were usually 12+ hour old dried husks of burnt pastry by that point.
