If you weren't laughing. . .

. . . you would be crying. I told you guys about my "OFFICE SPACE" and I feel like maybe you thought I was exaggerating. Hey kids, the proof is in the pudding. Check out the e-mail that just popped up in my inbox.


Good morning!
There have been some misuse of the poster holders that were installed by the Safety Committee. These holders were placed there to provide an area for the Safety Committee to announce information, and to promote awareness in certain topics...The most prominent one being slips, trips, and falls.


If you would like to place something in the poster holders, please contact me or a member of the Safety Committee to request permission to do so. Your request will be considered if it relates to UNNAMED GOVERNMENT AGENCY business or functions.

In short, please stop placing adds for beer, Chinese food, prescription drugs, magazine clippings, and other assorted garbage in the poster holders. If you would like to help the committee with slogans pertaining to safety, please feel free to e-mail those to me and they will be included in on the next vote.

Thank you for your cooperation.

That's out of control! I can't imagine working in that type of office environment. You poor dear. These Safety people need to get a life. SERIOUSLY.

JR and I had an idea to have an office dress code once. It involved things like no carrot pants, no visible thongs, no wearing socks with sandles, etc.

I can only imagine who wrote this beauty. Would the initials be HAC? Or AC for short? Geez.

They forgot to add.

oo oo - sign me up for the committee for "slogans pertaining to safety." a couple of ideas: "don't take a shower and simulaneously operate a toaster." "running with scissors? not recommended." "falling objects can be brutal...if you don't protect your noodle." "one rung too high and you could die."

Here is another gem from the UNNAMED STATE AGENCY - f- me!

"There will be men working on soundproofing the Women's restroom on Level 2, so it will not be available at times until the work is complete. When it is done, the offices adjoining should be much quieter.

Thanks!"

All those nasty women tearing it up in the level 2 restroom were making it terribly difficult to work, I am sure.

Gawd,don't you people understand. There are people like me that are concerned with your saftey. I mean if I wasn't there to remind you that tile floors are slippery when wet, you might be loosing mucho $$$ to the medical industry. So if you want to put your garbage in my poster holder don't. Use the stupid pin up board that is there for announcements, or the trash can.
Your safety officer
