Office Signs

This is why Management is better than you. Management doesn't take hour long craps at work.

Halloween Contests!

ABC’s Halloween Contest Results!

Yay. You mean Team #4 wins more of the doughnuts we get EVERY Friday?

FYI

Good Morning!

There is left-over lasagna, spinach salad and squares in the 7th floor kitchen if anyone is interested.

Thanks,

Georgina

I have no idea who is ordering and not eating all this food. I also have no idea who eats lasagna before 10:30am.

FYI- Baby Announcement

Trudy's grand-daughter Jennica just gave birth to an absolutely adorable 8lb 9oz baby girl named Laila or Leyla or whatever, ask her tomorrow. She is healthy, so is mom, grandma and it's debatable how great-grandma is because she's a LITTLE OVER THE TOP, but HAPPY!!! Pictures to follow hopefully tomorrow.

I love that no one knows the actual name of the baby...not even Trudy.

More office halloween parties

Get a kick out of Halloween

at the CBG Halloween Potluck!

When: Friday, October 31

Where: 3rd Floor Lunch room

Prizes: There will be two prize draws, one for everyone who is in costume and one for everyone who brings or buys a dish to share

Yes! You can enter both draws

see you there

This is one of those times when I really wish I knew how to use computers. It's also one of those times when I wish I knew how to format posts in blogger. I can't get this paragraph chunk to sit nicely at the bottom the the page. What gives?

Anyway, the above office forward sent in by a reader is spectacular! Come with me as I take you on a journey into GIF's...what you can't see are the little skeletons engaged in hot GIF action! The one on the left *kicks* the one on the right, which only leads too perfectly into the glorious opening line inviting us all to "get a kick out of Halloween." Wonderful! Unfortunately, I have no idea how to re-create this magical effect. So you'll just have to take my word that this posting is really, really good and that you really enjoyed reading it.

Bonus points for having a workplace that held both a costume contest AND a potluck AND for allowing employees to enter both draws. This stupid office memos is a real gem.

FYI

Oh the leftover bliss that is the 7th floor lunchroom...


There is a bit of salad and a couple of sandwiches in the 7th floor lunchroom for anyone who’s interested. Please help yourselves.

Thanks,

Clip art in its finest form. Notice the use of old thyme guy and "money eyes" smiley- they really add to the overall effect of the office forward. Also, starting any correspondence off with HEAR YE! HEAR YE! is always a good idea.

HEAR YE!
HEAR YE!

Now that we have a secure place to store the Food Bank Donations, we will be able to accept your CASH DONATIONS!!!! As of today, look for the FOOD BANK CASH DONATION jar at all Cake Day functions.

Remember – donations today get your name into the draw for a weekend night at the Hilton in Vancouver.

I'm not sure what the catfish has to do with anything, but I like it.

Happy Birthday, Glenda!

FYI

Hello,

There is leftover chicken curry in the 7th Floor lunchroom from Joel's Seminar. Please go very quietly; the seminar is still in session.

Thank you,

XXXX XXXXXXX

I think my favourite part is that you have to quietly sneak chicken curry away to eat at your cube.

Halloween post

I can only assume that for office forwarders the holiday seasons are a real treat. Maybe they see it as a great time for creative, fun office forwards that everyone will enjoy. I see it as a time to make any many puns as possible with most unreadable font MS Word has to offer.

This office forward was submitted by a friend over Halloween. Spoooooooky!

The myth of the office forward

I'd often heard stories of the corporate world, of a place where clip art is common and where email forwards clog up inboxes. It wasn't until I joined the professional workforce that I realized these stories were true.

Everyday I receive a new office forward- sometimes it's from Helen reminding us all to "giddy up" and donate to the United Way campaign; other times it's Frank asking us to please make sure we push our chairs in after we meet in the boardroom; and sometimes it's Judy from the social committee combining her talents of using clip art and pun making in word documents to invite us to the latest team building activity.

These office forwards have only been edited to protect the identity of those who work there. Some of the entries have been sent in by other cynical office workers, but I can assure you that the forwards themselves have not been edited or changed in any other way. I invite you to read through and take in the glory and the wonder of stupid office forwards...
