THE NEW OFFICE POLICY

Dress Code:

You are advised to come to work dressed according to your

salary.

If we see you wearing Prada shoes and carrying a Gucci bag, we

will assume you are doing well financially and therefore 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 doctor's statement 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 Saturdays & Sundays.

Bereavement Leave:

This is no excuse for missing work. There is nothing you can do

for dead friends, relatives or co-workers. Every effort should

be made to have non-employees attend the funeral arrangements.

In rare cases where employee involvement is necessary, the

funeral should be scheduled in the late afternoon. We will be

glad to allow you to work through your lunch hour and

subsequently leave one hour early.

Bathroom Breaks:

Entirely too much time is being spent in the toilet.

There is now a strict three-minute time limit in the stalls. At

the end of three 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 figure.

Chubby people get 5 minutes for lunch, 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, consternation and input should be directed elsewhere.

The Management

Pass this on to all who are employed.

Dear oh dear

Mr T if you do join up we will have to teach you not to threaten anything in writing. What if Terry is accosted by some unknown assailent. Your right in the frame now.

As for Kermit, quite amusing that is what would go down as a progressive employer in our trade only their not the employers are they. We employ them. That is unless we are talking about the real gangster types who tie the drivers up by flogging them rust buckets on the never never and allegedly arranging their insurance etc etc. It is the worst kind of exploitation of decent but vunerable people and it is completly out of order.

Sussex you seem like a sensible bloke and in all seriousness I wonder at times when I read about things like the 70 billion that has been spent on "consultants" since son of Thatcher came to power in 1997. The thing is if the workers party has been taken over by the enemy then it is down to us to take it back (if you go on a sight called John4Leader you will see what I am talking about). The same principle applies in a union as I was just explaining to Mr T on the section 75 posts. As it happens the principle applies in our industry.

Rambo you seem like a decent bloke but don't get confused mate parliament is only there to administrate on behalf of those who really run the show so there is there is an arguement that voting for tweedle dee or tweedle dumb every four or five years makes no difference. The thing is though that if we have accountable labour politicians in there it will be a lot better for ordinary working people like you and me. Have a look at that sight I advised Sussex about I would be really interested in the views of people like you as oppossed to others who masquerade as something their clearly not.

If that offends some on here all I can say is if the cap fits.

At last GBC a real battle of wits with the intelligentsia of the trade. The names Steve not Dave but if you want to carry on calling me Dave feel free trig.

As for releiving brother Flanagan of his post forget it. The only releiving I will be doing is on the heads of the scumbags who exploit the drivers in this industry.

It was not a threat, it was a promise, there are more ways to skin a cat... 8)
