The Company I work for Even Hates the Raiders

We have weekly emails that come out with reminders, activities going on, etc.  This week, our email contained items that were still needed for the toy/clothing drive that our company is taking part in.  While reading this email, I realized that I am even more proud to work for the company I do because of their undeniable hatred for the Raiders

I got a laugh out of this, hope you do too.  Read and enjoy.

 

"All Associates:

1) The Christmas Lunch will be held for the entire company at the Republic Road Office on Wednesday, December 16, 2009 at Noon. Meat is provided, bring a side dish. We hope to see all of you there.

2) Remember Ava's Kids -We are in need of the following:  Teenage hoodies for young men and women, men's wallets, womens wallets or purses, Harry Potter Books, Twilight or New Moon books, beginning reader books (Clifford, Disney, Pooh, etc.), art sets, Dora the Explorer Stuff, Spiderman, Batman figures, Matchbox cars, remote control cars, drawing tablets,  footballs, basketballs, hats, gloves (all ages), baseball hats (no Raiders Team logos), cologne, make-up, jewely boxes and jewelery, DVD movies, boxer shorts, athletic socks, Cds like Taylor Swift, The Jonas Brothers, Michael Jackson, Lifehouse, Blackeyed Peas, Pink, Daughtery, Bon Jovi, Tim McGraw, Brad Paisley, Toby Keith, etc., baby blankets and newborn toys.....the list goes on but this is a great start. These have to be new items and should be unwrapped.

That’s pretty bad if they ask for The Jonas Bros and Taylor Swift CD’s but no Raiders stuff.

If someone asks you if you want extra mayonnaise you have to say yes, cus that's part of it.

I don't know what the area your in is like,

but a lot of times when collections agencies have said they will not accept specific teams it is because there is a local gang that sports that team’s gear/colors.

Or maybe they are just a good judge of character and hate the Raiders!

MansGame didn't include the next memo:

“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?”

Or the next one...

“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 gift 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.”

Or the one after that...

“What a diverse group we are! I had no idea that December 20th 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 restaurant 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 be 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?!?!?”

Or the most recent one...

“I’ve had it with you vegetarian pricks!!!
 
We’re going to keep this party at the same place 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 f*%^ing 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 f*%^ing wierdos can kiss my *ss. I hope you all have a rotten holiday!
 
Drive drunk and die!”

Where do the outsourced employees get to eat and when?

What about the employees of the company “outsorcees” in foreign countries? Will we get a company meal too?
