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 spiced eggnog and a small band playing traditional carols ... feel free to sing along. And don't be surprised if our CEO shows up dressed up 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, Patty Lewis Human Resources Director December 2nd To: All employees: 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 all, Patty Lewis Human Resources Director December 3rd TO; ALL EMPLOYEES: Regarding the anonymous note I received from a 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. Patty Lewis Human Researchers Director December 7th TO: all EMPLOYEES I've arranged for members if Overeaters Anonymous to sit farthest from the dessert buffet and pregnant women closest to the restroom. 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? Patty Lewis Human Racehorses Director December 9th: TO; ALL EMPLOYEES 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." December 10th TO: ALL EMPLOYEES Vegetarions~ 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 farthest from the "grill of death" as you put it, and you'll get salad bar only, including hydrophobic 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 Bitch from Hell December 14th: TO: ALL EMPLOYEES: 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 off with full pay.
