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 spiked
eggnog and 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
to light the Christmas tree! Exchange of gifts among employees can be done
at that time.
No gift should be over $10.
Merry Christmas to you and your family.

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 and your family.

Regarding the anonymous note I received from a member of Alcoholics
Anonymous requesting a non-drinking table, I'm happy to accommodate this
request. However, 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.

I've arranged for members of Overeaters Anonymous to sit farthest from the
dessert buffet and pregnant women closest to the restrooms. Gays are
allowed to sit with each other. Lesbians do not have to sit with the gay
men; each will have their table. Yes, there will be a flower arrangement
for the gay men's table. Happy now?

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."

Vegetarians -- 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 at the
table farthest from the "grill of death," as you put it, and you'll get
salad bar only, including hydroponic 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?

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 of the 23rd off with full
pay.
Happy Holidays!
