This is the first email in a series of emails employees at a company receive. I post these solely for your reading enjoyment.

Subject line to entire bureau: How much do I love cleaning the refrigerators ... let me count the ways ...

Body:
1) Fifteen expired yogurt containers
2) Take out lunch leftovers from three weeks ago
3) Dressings/condiment bottles that have less than a tablespoon left in them
4) Plastic bags that are doing nothing more than taking up space -- read the paper there are plenty of sales on reusable lunch containers
5) Lunches that are to feed someone for a week or a month, instead of for the day

While everyone is doing a great job of putting their name and date on items, it does no good if you don't personally follow-up on items you've put in the refrigerator and forgotten about.
[Receptionist] and I are thinking it's about time to assign monthly offenders the task of cleaning out the refrigerators the following month. Do you really want to be on this list?
Thanks for your help.

[Person with too much time on their hands]
