    This is HUMOR Folks - Politically Correct Christmas Party

    I think this is hilarious! However, if anyone finds this offensive. . .
    well that's just tough! Enjoy!

    HAPPY HOLIDAYS!

    Corporate Memos on Christmas Party

    FROM: Patty Lewis, Human Resources Director
    TO: All Employees
    DATE: December 1
    RE: Christmas Party

    I'm happy to inform you that the company Christmas Party will take
    place on December 23, starting at noon in the private function room at
    the Grill House. There will be a cash bar and plenty of Oupa's
    mampoer! We'll have a small band playing traditional carols...feel free to sing
    along. And don't be surprised if our CEO shows up dressed as Santa
    Claus! A Christmas tree will be lit at 1:00pm. Exchange of gifts among
    employees can be done at that time, however, no gift should be over
    $10.00 to make the giving of gifts easy for everyone's pockets. This
    gathering is only for employees! A special announcement will be made
    by our CEO at that time!
    Merry Christmas to you and your family.
    Patty

    RE: Holiday Party
    In no way was yesterday's memo intended to exclude our Jewish
    employees.
    We recognize that Chanukah is an important holiday which often
    coincides with Christmas, though unfortunately not this year. However, from now
    on we're calling it our "Holiday Party." The same policy applies to any
    other employees who are not Christians or those still celebrating
    Reconciliation Day. There will be no Christmas tree present. No
    Christmas carols sung. We will have other types of music for your
    enjoyment.
    Happy now?
    Happy Holidays to you and your family.
    Patty

    RE: Holiday Party

    Regarding the note I received from a member of Alcoholics Anonymous
    requesting a non-drinking table ... you didn't sign your name. I'm
    happy to accommodate this request, but if I put a sign on a table that reads
    "AA Only", you wouldn't be anonymous anymore. How am I supposed to
    handle this?

    Somebody?

    Forget about the gifts exchange, no gifts exchange are allowed since
    the union members feel that $10.00 is too much money and executives
    believe $10.00 is very little for a gift. NO GIFTS EXCHANGE WILL BE ALLOWED.

    RE: Holiday Party
    What a diverse group we are! I had no idea that December 20 begins the
    Muslim holy month of Ramadan, which forbids eating and drinking during
    daylight hours. There goes the party! Seriously, we can appreciate how
    a luncheon at this time of year does not accommodate our Muslim
    employees' beliefs. Perhaps the Grill House can hold off on serving your meal
    until the end of the party - or else package everything for you to take it
    home in little foil "doggy bags". Will that work?

    Meanwhile, I've arranged for members of Weight Watchers to sit
    farthest from the dessert buffet and pregnant women will get the table closest
    to the restrooms.

    Gays are allowed to sit with each other. Lesbians do not have to sit
    with Gay men - each will have their own table. Yes, there will be a
    flower arrangement for the Gay men's table. To the person asking
    permission to cross dress, no cross dressing allowed though.

    We will have booster seats for short people. Low-fat food will be
    available for those on a diet. We cannot control the salt used in the
    food - we suggest for those people with high blood pressure to taste
    first. There will be fresh fruits as dessert for Diabetics, but the
    restaurant cannot supply "No Sugar" desserts. Sorry!

    Did I miss anything?!?!?

    RE: Holiday Party

    So December 22 marks the Summer Solstice...what do you expect me to
    do- a tap-dance on your heads? Fire regulations at the Grill House
    prohibit the burning of sage by our "earth-based Goddess-worshiping" employees,
    but we'll try to accommodate your shamanic drumming circle during the
    band's breaks.

    Okay???

    RE: Holiday Party

    People, people, nothing sinister was intended by having our CEO dress
    up like Santa Claus! Even if the anagram of "Santa" does happen to be
    "Satan," There is no evil connotation to our own "little man in a red
    suit." It's a tradition, folks, like broken hearts on Valentine's Day.
    Could we lighten up? Please?????????

    Also the company has changed its mind in making a special announcement
    at the gathering. You will get a notification by e-mail and in your
    pay slip after we have discussed it with the Unions.

    FROM: Patty Lewis, Human Resources Director
    TO: All #%&$ing Employees
    DATE: December 10
    RE: The %#*&^%@*%^ Holiday Party

    I have no #%&*ing idea what the announcement is all about. What the
    #&^!@ do I care??? . I KNOW WHAT I AM GOING TO GET!!!!!!!!!!!!
    You change your e-mail address now and you're dead!!!!!!!!!!!! No more
    changes of address will be allowed in my office. Try to come in and
    change your address, and I will have you hung from the ceiling in the
    warehouse!!!!!!!!!!!

    Vegetarians!?!?!? I've had it with you people!!! We're going to keep
    this party at the Grill House whether you like it or not, so you can
    sit quietly at the table furthest from the "grill of death," as you so
    quaintly put it, and you'll get your #$%^&*! salad bar, including
    hydroponic tomatoes. But you know, they have feelings, too. Tomatoes
    scream when you slice them. I've heard them scream. I'm hearing them
    scream right now!

    HA!

    I hope you all have a rotten holiday! Drive drunk and die, you hear
    me!?!?!?!?!?!?!!!!!

    The Bitch from HELL!!!!!!!!

    FROM: Joan Bishop, Acting Human Resources Director
    DATE: December 14
    RE: Patty Lewis and Holiday Party
    I'm sure I speak for all of us in wishing Patty Lewis a speedy
    recovery from her stress-related illness and I'll continue to forward your
    cards to her at the sanitarium. In the meantime, management has decided to
    cancel our Holiday Party and give everyone the afternoon of the 23rd
    off with full pay.

    LOL! I think it worked out fine in the end...I'd rather have a day/afternoon off than go to a holiday party with the same people I have to see every day/all week anyways! Let's face it...the people you work with are usually not your first choice in people you'd like to party with

    I could give all to Time except - except
    What I myself have held. But why declare
    The things forbidden that while the Customs slept
    I have crossed to Safety with? For I am There,
    And what I would not part with I have kept.

    All the political correctness stems from hypersensitive liberals.

    Hah, I like that. Besides weight lifting, politics is a huge hobby I enjoy, and shooting down liberals with right-wing ammo is the best part!

    Uggh. I was in Maine for work and it was like hippy hell up there. This girl comes up to me and asks how much my laptop brief case was. I said I didn't know, it was a gift. She said she was just wondering how much the life of an animal was to me. Thats when I pulled out my lucky rabbits foot key chain and jingled it for her and quoted my hero Clint Eastwood, "I've killed pretty much everything that has walked or crawled at one point."

    I saw Jon Stewart do stand up and he went on a rant about the conflicting times of religious dates.

    "I think that we should celebrate the religion that is has the most significant story at any given time. Christmas? Ok, so it's the day of birth of your Lord Jesus Christ. Big deal. Hanukkah? Our oil lasted longer than we thought it would. But I mean come on, it was good value!"

    LMAO, I had a PETA freak once tell me eating at KFC promoted animal abuse. I looked at him, took a bite off my chicken and went "Do you truly believe I care?"

    Lol! I kind of want one of those guys to start giving me **** just so I can use the line, "No matter how hard I try, I can't even begin to pretend that I give a **** about any of this." There's just something magical about those words to me. What the **** were you doing eating at KFC though?
