Because of the recent displays of negative attitude, the fax machine is to no longer be referred to as Faxanadu. It seems a great shame that looking cool and getting a chuckle among our friends is more important than trying to invigorate the workplace with something fun and new. If you have questions, please contact Pam Ellis in Human Resources.

Yesterday, Jerome Church emailed the Employee BBS in the interest of TJ. Unfortunately Jerome did not know that TJ was insane. Conclusive testing has shown that TJ's survival rating has now dropped one Zone. The root of this appears to be TJ's recent fixation on the Art Department and a person by the name of Chris. If TJ brings Chris or the Art Department up in other employees presence, please contact Will Jaffe as soon as possible. TJ needs to realize that this is not X-files, nor is there a conspiracy working against him.

Who the hell is Chris?  And do we or don't we have an Art Department
already?

Hello?  No?  This is Louis writing, or talking to you with text to
speech software.  Is good no?  I'm writing about Scooby Doo Easter
Theme.  I like very much, very, very much.  I have a question though, is
Scooby licking the prostitute's breast?  If so, is very nice.  As such
it is a picture for the senses.  Perhaps we should make it our logo.  I
can always talk to Chris in the Art Department and have him do us up
some drafts of the new logo.  Let me know.

The server troubles which started on Friday have been rectified on our end.

Since TJ has been making good progress in the "12 Step Program to Clear Wellness", he is being allowed more freedom. As many of you may have noticed, earlier this week he posted of a pewter Renaissance style cup for sale. He is quite excited about it, and hopes that it sells. Although TJ has been allowed this freedom, I do not feel comfortable in allowing him to start mailing the Employee BBS again. Because of this, I have decided to voice one of his questions in this brief status report. TJ had wondered if Chook Industries has a commons and an Art Department. He fears that perhaps that mail was sent to the Employee BBS by accident. Will Jaffe

Hey I've got a great idea, since we named the fax machine, lets all name
our Coffee Mugs too:  like Muggy, Coffetta, Tea-Tea, Crap-Head,
Squashed-Kitten or maybe just I Love Human Resources.

Brian

The official name for the fax machine is Faxanadu! Please remember to call him Faxanadu too, or his feelings will get hurt! :)

If you see members of the Art Department stealing coffee from the commons, please tell them to quit.

IT IS TIME TO GET STUPID!!! With the success of the Gauntlet Lunch-a-thon, tomorrow for one day only, after the games of Gauntlet and sounds of Zeppelin, there will be a massive Dorito fight. So bring your bags!!! Like always, same rad place, same gnarly time on Tuesday with the best $2.00 admission you ever spent! The free-for-all begins at 4.

For Sale: Pewter Renaissance style mug $5.00. If interested, please contact TJ. (This post was approved by Will Jaffe.)

Yes, clay is included along with Play-Doh.

The plastic piece covering the phone receiver is not to be used to shave Play-Doh because it gets clogged in the receiver's holes making it impossible for a voice to get through.

All employees who were two hours late arriving in on the courtesy shuttle bus yesterday will not be docked pay. However, if this occurs in the future they will be. Tardiness to work is not excusable because of Bug Warden searches. Delays should be expected, and employees should take this into account so as to allocate themselves enough time to get into work.
