I don’t have much work today. I have nothing significant to blog about. Nothing much going on in my head. I’ve set aside the book I was reading. I decided to review my documents folder and other files in my computer to see if I still have some files which I can say good-bye to (in preparation for the new computer which will be arriving anytime s this week). I don’t easily delete a file even if it seems to be of no use in the future. I just designate an “expiry date” on the document, normally a month after I have created it. When the expiry date comes, that’s the time I would put the file where it should belong: trash icon.
While going through the files, I came across a document sent to me by an office friend. And since I don’t have anything to blog about today, I’m posting it here….just for fun. If you have previously read this, please bear with me na lang
New Office Policy To Be Implemented Immediately
On 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.
On Sick Leaves
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.
On Vacation Leaves
Each employee is entitled to 104 vacation leaves a year. They are called Saturdays and Sundays.
On Bereavement Leaves
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 to the funeral arrangements. In rare cases where employee involvement is necessary, the funeral should be scheduled in the later afternoon. We will be glad to allow you to work through your lunch hour and subsequently leave one hour early.
On Comfort Room 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 sanctioned under the company's mental health policy.
On Lunch Breaks
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, compliments, frustrations, irritations, aggravations, insinuations, allegations, accusations, contemplations, consternation and inputs should be directed elsewhere.
Harsh. But ,hmmn, what if nga kaya? LOL! I’ll let you know once I’ve thought about it. I might impose them on my staff one of these days, especially the policy on comfort room breaks. LOL! Ooooooh, evil idea. I hope I will have a lot of things to think about tomorrow. It’s not good for me to have an idle mind.
