Warning - Swearing at Work

 

Dear Employees:

 

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 colleagues.

 

Due to complaints received from some employees who may be easily offended, this type of language will no longer be tolerated.

 

We do, however, realise the critical importance of being able to accurately express your feelings when communicating with colleagues.

 

Therefore, a list of 13 New and Innovative 'TRY SAYING' phrases has been provided so that proper exchange of ideas and information can continue in an effective manner.
