Well, it’s only the second day of the month but it’s still the middle of the work week.  So enjoy this Wednesday post from the archives of my personal email joke folder (don’t we all have one?).  This one came to me on June 23, 2006.  Again, its from my dad and since it arrived right around my third anniversary, I guess he was trying to prepare me for what’s likely to become my future.  My three kids, God bless them all, are quickly sucking most of my brain power even now so read on and enjoy.  I’ve already had days like what you’ll read below.  Am I the only one?

Well, it’s the middle of the work week which means I pull something from the office joke email folder I’ve maintained for several years.  This one actually came from my dad so you have to thank (or blame) him.

We’ve all been there but don’t like to admit it. As much as we try to convince ourselves otherwise, the WORK POOP is inevitable.

I get truly funny emails almost daily.  I thought, as it’s the middle of the work week, I’d share one along the lines of better office etiquette.  This may be the start of a regular feature.  Only time will tell.  Oh, and if you’re like me you’ve been an email user decades and as such may have seen this one before.  I hope you’re still able to get a chuckle or a nugget of wisdom you can apply in your day to day office interactions.

In the high pressure environment with the interpersonal relations that prevails today, I hope the letter below can be of some assistance.

Cussing at Work

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.
