    The Office Party

    FROM: Patty Lewis, Human Resources Director

    TO: All Employees

    DATE: October 01, 2003

    RE: Gala Christmas Party

    I'm happy to inform you that the company Christmas Party will take place
    on December 23, starting at noon in the private function room at the Grill
    House. There will be a cash bar and plenty of drinks! We'll have 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! A Christmas tree
    will be lit at1:00 PM. Exchanges of gifts among employees can be done at that time;
    however, no gift should be over $10.00 to make the giving of gifts easy
    for everyone's pockets. This gathering is only for employees!

    Our CEO will make a special announcement at that time!

    Merry Christmas to you and your family,

    Patty

    RE: Gala Holiday Party

    In no way was yesterday's memo intended to exclude our Jewish employees.
    We recognize that Hanukkah is an important holiday, which 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 any other
    employees who are not Christians and to those still celebrating
    Reconciliation Day. There will be no Christmas tree and no Christmas
    carols will be sung. We will have other types of music for your enjoyment.

    Happy now?

    Happy Holidays to you and your family,

    Patty

    RE: Holiday Party

    Regarding the note I received from a member of Alcoholics Anonymous
    requesting a non-drinking table ...

    You didn't sign your name. I'm happy to accommodate this request, but if I
    put a sign on a table that reads, "AA Only"; you wouldn't be anonymous
    anymore. How am I supposed to handle this?

    Somebody?

    And sorry, but forget about the gifts exchange, no gifts are allowed since
    the union members feel that $10.00 is too much money and the executives
    believe $10.00 is a little chintzy.

    REMEMBER: NO GIFTS EXCHANGE WILL BE ALLOWED.

    RE: Generic Holiday Party

    What a diverse group we are! I had no idea that December
    20 begins the Muslim holy month of Ramadan, which forbids eating and
    drinking during daylight hours. There goes the party! Seriously, we can
    appreciate how a luncheon at this time of year does not accommodate our
    Muslim employees' beliefs. Perhaps the Grill House can hold off on
    serving your meal until the end of the party or else package everything
    for you to take it home in little foil doggy baggy. Will that work?

    Meanwhile, I've arranged for members of Weight Watchers to sit farthest
    from the dessert buffet, and pregnant women will get the table closest to
    the restrooms.

    Gays are allowed to sit with each other. Lesbians do not have to sit with
    Gay men, each group will have their own table.

    Yes, there will be flower arrangement for the Gay men's table.

    To the person asking permission to cross dress, the Grill House asks that
    no cross-dressing allowed, apparently because of concerns about confusion
    in the restrooms. Sorry.

    We will have booster seats for short people.

    Low-fat food will be available for those on a diet.

    I am sorry to report that we cannot control the amount of salt used in the
    food . The Grill House suggests

    that people with high blood pressure taste a bite first.

    There will be fresh "low sugar" fruits as dessert for diabetics, but the
    restaurant cannot supply "No Sugar" desserts. Sorry!

    Did I miss anything?!?!?

    RE: The F*%#ing Holiday Party

    I've had it with you vegetarian *****s!!! We're going to keep this party
    at the Grill House whether you like it or not, so you can sit quietly at
    the table furthest from the "grill of death," as you so quaintly put it,
    and you'll get your fu&*^%g salad bar, including organic tomatoes. But you
    know, tomatoes have feelings, too. They scream when you slice them. I've
    heard them scream. I'm hearing them scream right NOW!

    The rest of you [ mailto:fu@*%26ng ]fu@*&ng weirdos can kiss my *ss. I hope
    you all have a rotten holiday!

    Drive drunk and die you unfestive morons,

    The B* from HE*^!!!!!!!!
