No, I think Sandra in accounting made a few more minor changes. So this would be the first version of version 7.1
I haven't seen them yet. Let me check with my Executive Assistant's Secretary's Intern.

I'll freeze my memo. Isn't there a form for that?

I'm not sure. I'll send out a memo and find out.

I'm going to be busy all week. I'm running a workshop with the call center employees. Half go in the morning, and half in the afternoon. It's on reducing our customers' hold time.
Good. I know the transition will be difficult. Management just released the new customer service plan. You will no longer talk to a real person, instead there will be a recording that says "In order to serve you better, we have suspended our customer service department."

Maybe we could do both. They could come on the weekends, and then work three days during the week, going to workshops either in the morning or the afternoon.
We have to do this so they know how important it is to make sure those incoming calls get turned over quickly.

That recording is still in the editing stages. The committee for Linguistic Marketing didn't feel the message was impactful enough.

That's good. We can cut down on the number of customer complaints by not having anyone to take them.

{Constantly annoyed that her boss walks over and gives verbal responses to her emails. How am I supposed to Cover-My-Ass from corporate dumbassairy without an e-paper trail?! I'm going to have to wire up my cubicle like the Nixon Oval Office. Grrrr!}
I know exactly what you mean. I save everything. It has saved my ass so many times, like when a manager gives you a hard time and you can point them to the email where they told you to do exactly what they're berating you for.

We need to cover that in Thursday morning's meeting.

I'm already at the "Importance of Taking Breaks" workshop on the weekend. Maybe someone could put me on speaker phone re. the call center workshop and I could do both. Productivity!

Thursday morning's meeting was cancelled. Now that's it's getting colder, the Fire Marshall wants to practice fire drills.

They need volunteers to set up coffee and hot chocolate in the parking lot.

Can someone send me the stapler requisition form? I'm running out of paperclips.
Also, if anyone sees my stapler, please let me know. It's pink and has some heart stickers on the side. I checked with Frank, Francis, and Frannie and none of them remember lending their staplers out (and none of them are pink).
Hey! When did posting get changed so you could scroll up in the thread while typing? Neat.

I just forgot. I'm not going to make any of these meetings, because I have to fly down to Tampa to meet with a new vendor that might have a way for us to save $240 a year on printing costs. I have to make sure they booked my first-class ticket, my hotel, and my rental car.
Transportation would like you to swing by India and Taiwan wile you are out and check on the cost saving measures there.

Also, please read the memo I sent out about next week's business ethics training. It has been postponed because the consultant we hired to conduct the training has been incarcerated for insider trading and embezzlement. We are going to work with his parole officer to get that rescheduled as soon as possible.

Also he would like everyone to attend the importance of healthy living seminar after your smoke breaks. Doughnuts and danishes will be provided.
