for this week.
9:30am - 10:30am meeting
Subject: Phone Usage
Description: Personal phone calls can have a negative effect on
productivity and can cost the company hundreds of dollars. If you
must make a personal phone call, please
use the payphones located in the employee parking lot.
11:00am - 11:45am meeting
Subject: Employee Parking
Description: Employee parking is a privilege. Please understand that
while the employee parking lot is a mile away and the executive
parking lot is directly underneath our building, it's only because
there isn't enough room under the building for all regular
employees. Also, starting March 15th, we will be leasing out 3/4ths
of the employee parking lot as a truck rest stop. We urge all staff
members to arrive an hour early each day to secure a spot in the employee
parking lot before it fills up. As you know, there is no all-day
street parking available anywhere within a 5-mile radius and we will
not reimburse you for any parking or towing fees you incur.

the day.

minutes, this meeting has been scheduled to see who shows up on
time. Those who do not show up time will be required to attend a
2-week long lunch scheduling training course.
1:30pm - 2:30pm meeting

company potentially exist without it?

Tuesday 3/8
8:30am - 8:45am meeting
Subject: Hardhat distribution
Description: While we initiate the installation of even brighter
fluorescent lights above your cubicles, we require you to wear a
hard hat. This will protect the company from lawsuits should these
new light fixtures fall onto your heads.

therefore we need to discuss some of these issues. Ringtones by

10:15am - 10:45am meeting
Subject: Employee Health Plan
Description: Concerns about why we cannot cover the recent
flesh-eating virus outbreak have been brought up by many infected
employees. If you are infected, please do not attend this meeting,
because we don't want the virus to spread and prevent other
employees from completing their daily tasks.
11:00am - 12:00pm meeting
Subject: Security Badge Photos
Description: Due to an update in our security system, all employees
will need to be photographed again for all new security badges.
There will be a one-time fee of $55 for your new badges which we

around town and it is up to you and your team to find them. Please
note, we cannot be held responsible for lost paychecks.
3:30pm - 4:00pm meeting
Subject: Password Selection
Description: It has become increasingly apparent that there is a
password selection problem within our company. When choosing a login
password for your computers, please select one that other people
will not be able to think of. For example, "password" is not a good
choice for a password. Furthermore, we request that people stop
using the password "fuckthisjob" as it has become the most common
password.
4:15pm - 5:00pm meeting
Subject: Travel Expenses
Description: When traveling on a company business trip, it is vital
to record all of your travel expenses. However, please understand
that expenses such as

event visit", and "additional
strip club visit" will not be covered by the company.
Thursday 3/10
8:30am - 9:15am meeting
Subject: Stock Options
Description: Yes our company stock has fallen from $30 to $2 in less
than 3 months, but that's no reason for you to worry. We are simply
in a transitional period at the moment.
9:45am - 10:30am meeting
Subject: Inclement Weather
Description: While we understand your concerns about safely driving
on the roads during a blizzard, please understand that all of the
executives had no problem making it into the office in their
Hummers, and nor should you.
11:00am - 12:30pm meeting
Subject: Shared Cubicles
Description: Since we are going to be renting out some of our
corporate space to another company in the near future, we will have to condense our
teams. With that in mind, we will now have a minimum of 2 people in
each cubicle.
1:00pm - 2:15pm meeting
Subject: Office Birthday Parties
Description: Rather than celebrate all staff member birthdays
individually each month, we will be dedicating one hour of each
month to celebrate all these birthdays at once. Due to health
reasons, we will no longer be providing ice cream cakes at the
birthday gatherings. We will, however, be providing rice cakes.
2:45pm - 3:30pm meeting
Subject: Hawaiian Shirt Day
Description: We regret to inform you that our Friday "Hawaiian Shirt
Day" has been cancelled due to an employee misunderstanding the
rules and wearing nothing but a Hawaiian shirt last time.
4:00pm - 5:15pm meeting
Subject: Direct Deposit
Description: We are happy to announce that direct deposit is now
available to all of our employees. This will allow you to receive
your payments much faster, and it will also leave absolutely no
paper trail should something go wrong.
Friday 3/11
8:30am - 9:00am meeting
Subject: Water Cooler Fees
Description: Due to increasing budget concerns, there will now be a
50cent charge anytime an employee wishes to get a drink from the
water cooler. However, employees are encouraged to get a refreshing
drink from the outdoor sprinkler system.
9:15am - 11:15am meeting
Subject: Team Presentation
Description: Enjoy yourself as you sit for 2 hours and learn all
about yet another team that has absolutely nothing to do with the work you do
here.
11:30am - 12:00pm meeting
Subject: Employee Discount
Description: Yes our store sale prices are almost always better than
the prices you get with your employee discount, but you can't buy
merchandise with our company logo on it in our stores. This is where
your employee discount comes in. For example: with your employee
discount, a t-shirt with our company logo will only cost you $29.99
(plus tax, shipping & handling, and discount processing fee).
12:45pm - 1:30pm meeting
Subject: Real Estate Assistance
Description: Need help finding a house to live in? Well chances are
you're wasting your time... we know what your salary is and there's
no way you can afford a house. Still, we can easily help you find an
apartment to share with a minimum of 6 other roommates.
2:00pm - 2:45pm meeting
Subject: Air Conditioning Complaints
Description: A number of employees have complained how the air
conditioning in the building is set too low. We encourage these
employees to wear more layers of clothing instead of constantly
printing out emails, just so they can rub the warm paper from the
laser printer onto their bodies.
3:00pm - 3:30pm meeting
Subject: Community Microwaves
Description: This has been covered before, but apparently we need to
re-address the issue concerning heating up metal utensils in our
shared community microwaves.
3:45pm - 4:15pm meeting
Subject: Cubicle Plants
Description: We've noticed some employees have been putting far too
many plants inside of their cubicles. A good rule of thumb: if we
need a machete to make our way into your cubicle, you have too many
plants.
4:30pm - 5:00pm meeting
Subject: Weekend Coverage
Description: Discussion about who will be coming into the office
this weekend to help schedule all meetings for next week.
*If you are unable to attend any of the above meetings, please
schedule a meeting with your supervisor to discuss the setting up of
a re-briefing meeting at a later date.
**The only acceptable excuses for being absent in any of the aforementioned
meetings are as follows:
-
Death in the family (with note from mortician)
-
Death in the self (with 2-weeks prior written notice)
