Zoe’s Thanksgiving took an unexpected turn when her husband Dan invited 15 coworkers without warning. Facing chaos, Zoe turned frustration into action, enlisting Dan’s colleagues in meal prep. Her sharp wit and resourcefulness ensured the day was unforgettable—teaching Dan a valuable lesson along the way.

Thanksgiving morning began with typical chaos in Zoe’s household until Dan dropped a bombshell: “I invited a few coworkers… 15, actually.” Stunned but determined, Zoe embraced the challenge, transforming uninvited guests into an impromptu kitchen team. She calmly assigned tasks, quipping, “This wouldn’t have been possible without your help—literally.” Despite mishaps like spilled cranberry sauce, the feast came together. Dinner was served, and Dan’s boss jokingly remarked, “Dan, you didn’t tell us we’d be working today!”

After cleanup, led by a sheepish Dan, he apologized, saying, “I shouldn’t have surprised you.” Zoe accepted with a smile and a warning for next time. Thanksgiving was chaotic but triumphant, a day where teamwork—and a bit of mischief—saved the holiday.
