Morning All
We're now in the third week of this season and I've yet to receive meaningful updates from any of you. This is a reminder that the deadline for your reviews is next week. Furthermore, marketing, I need something more substantial than 'mood boards' and 'vibes' to present to the shareholders as our winter marketing campaign. And absolutely no comic sans.
I'd also like to remind all employees as we approach reviews that your work email address is a reflection of the company and should be professional.

Professionally, I have to inform you I’ve finally discovered the reason your inter-departmental email server has been slow for the last six months, and would advise you and Mr. Hateno I’ve had to delete the almost two terabytes of cat memes you’ve been sending each other thrice daily.
Unprofessionally, what the fuck, Wind?

Legend, why have I just received an automated invoice for a new colour photocopier? Ours is only a year old, and it was a very costly model at that. Can we not get an engineer out for it?

The IT department has asked me to pass on a message to all staff that all IT equipment, especially printers and photocopiers, are strictly for professional use. Legend would like me to emphasise that photocopiers cannot hold body weight and are not intended to scan parts of your anatomy. If an incident of this nature occurs again, the cost of repairing this equipment will be deducted from your paychecks.
Our graphic design department will be unavailable for the rest of the day, please forward any necessary work you have for them onto Warriors, who will make sure it gets to them.

Sky said everyone’s a bit shaken up, so he’s made you some sweet tea, and we’ve raided the old man’s biscuit box. I’ve seen the CCTV footage.

Please find below my report of the incident that happened today, 28th of Faron’s Tide. Attached is CCTV footage.
At about 09:10 this morning, Mr. Woods reported hearing screaming and distress from the copier room. When this had not subsided by 09:18, Mr. Woods notified Mr. Chosen of this. Mr. Chosen went to investigate at around 09:20 and found Mr. Outset entangled with the colour photocopier, which Mr. Smith insists I note was an expensive Sharp MX-4070 that he referred to as ‘his baby’. Mr. Hateno was attempting to extricate Mr. Outset, who had been making scans of his rear end. The glass had shattered, and Mr. Outset was in considerable distress. At 09:25, Mr. Chosen contacted Mr. Smith, and then at 09:32, Mr. Woods who is our first aider, to attend the situation. By 09:45, the combined efforts of the four men had managed to get Mr. Outset out of the copier, however Mr. Hateno had sustained multiple wounds to the hands from the shattered glass. Mr. Woods informs me he ‘began to remove glass from parts of Wind he never wants to see again’ but due to a large amount of bleeding, the decision was made to call an ambulance. Mr. Hateno insisted on staying to try and clean up the mess caused, but myself and Mr. Chosen insisted he accompany Mr. Outset to the ER.
We are still assessing the cost of repairing the copier and having the carpet professionally cleaned. Mr. Woods has also requested counselling.
Yours, Warriors Knight.

Somehow, despite being only a year old, the copier is ‘end of life’ from the company. I am in mourning. She was beautiful. Our only A3 sized document scanner. I set her up myself, I still remember the day she arrived. We have no choice but to order a replacement, and I guarantee Twi will only give us the budget for a fucking Epson. I’m burying her toner cartridges outside, will you join me for black coffee in the break room afterwards?
We can grieve together.

Time’s trying to leave on his horse after consuming his third bottle of Chateau Romani. You live closest to him, could you try to get him to accept a ride home from you? He’s been avoiding a phonecall from Malon all afternoon, so maybe best to take him back to yours. I’d do it myself, but I’m trying to explain to our insurance company how we didn’t have signage up to advise people not to scan their fucking butts, because we didn’t think normal adults would do that. You can have the rest of the day off.

Have you checked your pigeonhole? You know, the one filled with letters from the tax office you refuse to open? If you really haven’t, I’ll take you as a plus one, on the condition you behave yourself. Midna’s become Malon’s new BFF or something.
