A buddy from work here has decided to move on to another career, and one of our coworkers organized an event to see him off. This is not uncommon, and these events are typically handled via company email.
After the invite went out and circulated, an email came from HR specifically pointing out that this event is not a company sponsored event. This is a point that they drove home. This email also included a clarification of policy that forbids such email from being sent to begin with. They did close the email with a friendly farewell, but this was obviously not the point of the email.
Damn the man! Save the empire!
You can’t take my line!!! Just Kidding. This is what has become of our corporate world. Lack of care for employees, they are always just trying to push people out so they could bring in others that won’t demand as much money. Celebrations and their announcing e-mails are always held sacred for the big wigs that get promoed to CEO or VP or something along those lines. I say screw corproate America and I double the Damn the Man! Save the Empire!
