2005 New Employee Rules and Regulations

Dress Code

It is advised that you come to work dressed accordingly to your salary.

If we see you wearing Prada shoes and carrying a Gucci bag, we assume
you are doing well financially and therefore you do not need a raise. If
you dress poorly, you need to learn to manage your money better, so that you
may buy nicer clothes, and therefore you do not need a raise. If you
dress just right, you are right where you need to be and therefore you do not
need a raise.

Sick Days

We will no longer accept a doctors note as proof of sickness. If you are
able to go to the doctor, you are able to come to work.

Personal Days

Each employee will receive 104 personal days a year. They are called
Saturday and Sunday.

Toilet Use

Entirely too much time is being spent in the toilet. There is now a
strict 3 minute time limit in the stalls. At the end of the 3 minutes,
an alarm will sound, the toilet paper roll will retract, the stall door will open
and a picture will be taken. After your second offense, your picture
will be posted on the company bulletin board under the "Chronic Offenders
Category". Anyone caught smiling in the picture will be sectioned under
the company's mental health policy

Lunch Break


Skinny people get 30 minutes for lunch as they need to eat more, so that
they can look healthy. Normal size people get 15 minutes for lunch to
get a
balanced meal to maintain their average sized figure. Fat people get 5
minutes because that's all the time needed to drink a slim fast.

Thank you for your loyalty to our company.

We are here to provide a positive employment experience. Therefore all
questions, comments, concerns, complaints, frustrations, irritations,
aggravations, insinuations, allegations, accusations, contemplations,
consteration and input shall be directed elsewhere.

Thank you.

The Management.

My mom got one when she was a manger at a craft store about 20 years ago, and it was even funnier.

It included such things as death notices, and requiring a two weeks notice. Also, that bathroom times would be scheduled according to last name, once per day.

Funny stuff. :wink:

With the way your threads have been going beeble, i really thought you would blame this letter on the religious far right ... or whatever you call them.

I resisted the temptation. But since you brought it up (wink), this is more like something economic conservatives would write, not religious conservatives.

OK First of all, where the hell do you work that your so called boss has the Goddamn right to tell you or anyone how there qualified for a financial increase or not based on that Godawful Memo they sent to you?? :roll: What the fuck?? How did you react to this bullshit when you first received it?? Tell you what: Damn good thing they didn't send me this Memo cause I would've went over your bosses head to his or her boss and questioned the ethics of this Memo and how it was presented.... So if I drive a Porsche to work on a job where I'm making say, 30,000 a year, I'm not qualified for an increase based on the type of vehicle I drive or the nice clothes I wear?? What the fuck kind of shit is this??? :laugh: If I were you, I'd be looking for a different place of Employment kid..

BKB, it is a joke. Memos like this have been floating around for years. Sort of an email hoax type thing.

This letter is nothing compared to the one I passed out at work today. I used this as a blue print. Thanks for many wonderful ideas.

I even added pay decreases based on height. If your smaller, you require less material. Therefore make you own clothes. You will save money on fabric.

Everyone in the office is required to worship me for 15 minutes every day. This while I put on my English cape and dance the Rumba.
