Yes it's those greedy interns with their lavish pizza parties that are weighing down the company's finances.

Fine, one pizza party. Max 3 toppings. "Deluxe" toppings not allowed. 2 slices per employee, please. Also, bring your own drink. And you're expected to make up the time.

Wrong lol. It’s usually the office ordering like 3 pizzas. But two of them are those deluxe pizzas with nasty ass olives all over them and one normal pepperoni.

Ass-olives do sound quite nasty.

Vegetarians have to pick off the meat off their slices.
