FROM: HUMAN RESOURCES
It has been brought to management's attention
that some individuals throughout the company have been using foul
language during the course of normal conversation with their co-workers.
Due to complaints received from some employees who may be easily
offended, this type of language will no longer be tolerated.
We do however, realise the critical importance
of being able to accurately express your feelings when communicating
with co-workers, therefore, a list of "TRY SAYING" new
phrases has been provided so that proper exchange of ideas and information
can continue in an effective manner without risk of offending our
more sensitive employees.
