They All Had Keys to the Strawberries...

A friend of mine passed this email on to me that came from a Senior Vice President of a MAJOR (I mean MAJOR) communications company. Has anyone seen the Caine Mutiny?


"Ahh, but the strawberries that's... that's where I had them. They laughed at me and made jokes but I proved beyond the shadow of a doubt and with... geometric logic... that a duplicate key to the wardroom icebox DID exist, and I'd have produced that key if they hadn't of pulled the Caine out of action. I, I, I know now they were only trying to protect some fellow officers... "

There will be hourly checks of the men's bathroom. It is currently clean. Our goal for this year is to CATCH the person(s) the is using our toilets improperly!!!!!!

Also, please pick up your paper towels if you miss the basket. It's not acceptable to leave it on the floor.

BTW there is security camera pointing down that hallway. I intend to use it.

Why not install blow dryers and forget about the basket altogether?

Erm. Miss the basket? I'm either grossed out, or curious. Both probably. ;)

Have you seen Zero Unlimited? There are thousands of these types of letters.

Miss you,
Monkey

Are people shitting in the urinals?

Phil, great analogy between Caine Mutiney and this guy. I'm glad that I'm my own boss. I never could stand office Bs.

Some things are just the same, no matter where you go. Hmm…or should that be, when you go ;)

I always emerge from the bathroom flush with success.
