I just put in my two week’s notice at HWS, so I won’t be working for my current employer much longer, but I wanted to post an email that was sent to the entire company. It gives you an idea of the caliber of some (not all) of the people that work here:

I want to show my appreciation towards all the male gender in Heritage. everyone has done very well at not urinating on the seat. this is the first company i have worked at that keeps the potty clean all day…good job, Thanks! : ) (The email was sent by Cori Powell.)

The sad thing is, this isn’t a joke. This was really sent to the entire company of about 150 employees. I, of course, had to respond. Here was my response:

I’m glad you feel that way, but I don’t think it is necessary to share with the entire company. It’s gross!

I got a few responses to my email, such as:

Thanks Jen. Thats what I’m talking about.LOL
from
Your boy
Mark F

and

Jennifer, I so have to agree with you there… (fyi, I didn’t hit reply all, so you’re the only one who knows I agree…)

Actually, I have to say, I have enjoyed being an editor/writer for the company. It’s been a great place to work, and I’ve learned quite a bit…especially about the bathroom habits of the male employees. :) I’m sad to leave, but at least I’ll have some funny memories!

    Thanks for your comment, Cori. I have to say, your company-wide email was entertaining. I did, in fact, realize it was a joke, and thus the response I sent. I was hoping I didn’t work with people THAT retarded…but who knows…

    At any rate, yes, the bathrooms are cleaner as the new company I work for is my own, and I actually hire a janitorial service to take care of them.

    Best of luck to you at Heritage, and I hope the bathrooms never let you down.

    By the way, I think it’s funny that there are always emails saying “onward and upward.” You left that part of my email out! And it was a joke, so get over it already. Funny that it was the highlight of your blog. Sincerely, Cori Powell.

    P.S., Hope your new potties are as clean as those at Heritage! :-)

    P.S.S., Nice rabbit.
