Office Humour

Read this before going further.
More excerpts from the mails of the people I tolerate on a daily basis. I swear i did not change a single letter.

1.

Dear Colleagues,

The following people were attending the Tele Conference from X and K is going to moderate the total Discussion.

If you did not get the glitch in that statement please leave your contact details, i will make it a point to make fun of you personally.

2.
Please go ahead and place the order for 4 chairs. Give two chairs for the Dev. team and the other two will take care the new joinee’s

I am appalled

3.
General leave should be availed for not more than 3 consecutive working days. Any 3 consecutive leaves shall be availed either before or after the vacation or weekend but not on both the ends.

Both the ends? This could have been one of those What The Duck moments if i was not laughing my "posterior" off, when i read that mail. For those who did not get it they don't want us to take 3 consecutive leaves such that there is a holiday or weekend in between like Thursday, Friday and Monday with the weekend in between. Now go laugh your "posterior" off.

4.
All the Security Staff,
On a random check it was observed that there are some items identified to be as CD’s/DVD’s, USB’s are been commuted in and out of the office.

It was strictly prohibited and you are requested to monitor them continuously. To protect and safe guard the Information you have to make thorough checks and the prime responsibility lies on you in protecting them. I too was no exception to do your Job.


Dear Colleagues: To keep and maintain the highest standards of Information Security and integrity, I request all of you to cooperate with the security in discharging their duties. This is an effort not to humiliate or under privilege any body but to make strong security practices and protect the Organizations interests and integrity.

I hope all of you will take the message in the right spirit.

P: Make sure the message gets communicated to all the Security Staff.

Forget the usage of words, forget the grammar the Security Staff don't have an Email ID. It is evident in the last line where "P" is asked to convey the message to the security staff.

The next point worth noting is maintaining "Highest Standards of Information Security" by checking bags, pockets and lunch boxes.

If you did not laugh yet and wondering "now whats wrong with that!!" then maybe you should consider becoming a Director of a software company.

Again if found that I posted these, I could be fired. Since there are only a handful that visit my blog, I am safe.
