schnitzel hunt 

Anglicised bastardisation of the German term "Schnitzeljagd" (Scavenger Hunt).

A schnitzel hunt is an infuriating and seemingly impossible quest in which the only reward is the memories of the friendships destroyed along the way. There may or may not be schnitzel involved

Susan and Rose were huddled out of the rain under the eave of the stable, their windswept faces looking more and more miserable as they tried to decode the final clues of the "Treasuring Friendship" team building exercise they had been tasked with. Wiping water from her eyes, uncaring of the panda like effect the smeared mascara was having on her visage, Susan read the clue

"You have traveled far on your journey today, for some creatures the means hay, for others they must give way"
"Fuck!", Rose slumped to the ground "We have been at this for hours! I don't know if I can stand being out in this fucking rain any longer! It has to be something with horses, right?", she stared wildly at Susan, frustration clear across her face "This whole event is nothing more than a damn schnitzel hunt!"
