Christmas memo
December 1st
TO: ALL EMPLOYEES
I'm happy to inform you that the company
Christmas Party will take place on December
23rd at Luigi's Open Pit Barbecue. There will
be lots of spiked eggnog and a small band
playing traditional carols ... feel free to sing
along. And don't be surprised if our CEO shows
up dressed as Santa Claus to light the
Christmas tree! Exchange of gifts among employees
can be done at that time; however, no gift should
be over $10.
Merry Christmas to you and your family.

In no way was yesterday's memo intended to exclude
our Jewish employees. We recognize that Hanukkah
is an important holiday that often coincides with
Christmas (though unfortunately not this year).
However, from now on we're calling it our "Holiday
Party." The same policy applies to employees who
are celebrating Kwanzaa at this time. There will be no
Christmas tree and no Christmas carols sung.
Happy Holidays to you and your family.
Patty Lewis

TO: ALL EMPLOYEES
Regarding the anonymous note I received from
member of Alcoholics Anonymous requesting a
non-drinking table, I'm happy to accommodate this
request, but, don't forget, if I put a sign
on the table that reads, "AA Only," you
won't be anonymous anymore. In addition,
forget about the gifts exchange-- no gifts will
be allowed since the union members feel that
$10 is too much money.

TO: ALL EMPLOYEES
I've arranged for members of Overeaters Anonymous
to sit farthest from the dessert buffet and
pregnant women closest to the restrooms. Gays are
allowed to sit with each other. Lesbians do not have
to sit with the gay men; each will have their own
table. Yes, there will be a flower arrangement for the
gay men's table.
Happy now?

People, people -- nothing sinister was intended
by wanting our CEO to play Santa Claus! Even if
the anagram of "Santa" does happen to be "Satan,
there is no evil connotation to our own "little
man in a red suit."

TO: ALL EMPLOYEES
Vegetarians -- I've had it with you people!! We're
going to hold this party at Luigi's Open Pit whether
you like it or not, you can just sit at the table
farthest from the "grill of death," as you put it, and
you'll get salad bar only, including hydroponic
tomatoes. But, you know, tomatoes have feelings, too.
They scream when you slice them. I've heard them
scream. I'm hearing them right now... Ha! I hope you
all have a rotten holiday! Drive drunk and die, you
hear me?
The ***** from Hell

I'm sure I speak for all of us in wishing Patty
Lewis a speedy recovery from her stress-related
illness. I'll continue to forward your cards to her at
the sanitarium. In the meantime, management has
decided to cancel our Holiday Party and give everyone
the afternoon of the 23rd off with full pay.

Acting Human Resources Director
