Yup. I briefly worked for a company that held an annual mandatory company picnic in a nearby park. No, we couldn’t stay and get work done, and going home would have been an unexcused absence. So any introverts in the company (I think I was the only one) had a fun afternoon killing time, staring at their watches, waiting for the shift to end. Sure I could have sat at one of the crowded tables, but the whole situation pissed me off and it became a matter of principle.
I left the company after only a few months onboard; not for that reason, although it is on my list of grievances.
