Subject: Avoid Foul Language!

AVOID FOUL LANGUAGE! (D.A)

Enrich your diction with these tips

It has been brought to management's attention that some individuals throughtout the company have been using foul language during the course of normal conversation with other employees. Due to complaints received from some employees who are more easily offended, this type of language will no longer be tolerated.

None of less we do realize the critical importance of idividuals being able to properly experss their feelings when communicating with fellow employees. Therefore, a list of code phrase replacements has been compiled so proper exchange of ideas and information can continue in an effective manner without risk of offending our more sensitive co-workers.
