Miscommunication
Memo from CEO to Manager:Today at 11 o'clock there will be a total eclpise of the sun.This is when the sun disappears behind the moon for 2 minutes. As this is something that cannot be seen everyday, time will be allowed for employees to view the eclipse in the parking lot.Staff should meet in the lot at 10 to 11, when I will deliver a short speech introducing the eclipse, and giving some background information. Safety goggles will be made available at a small cost.
Memo from Manager to Department Head:Today at 10 to 11, all staff should meet in the car park. This will be followed by a total eclipse of the sun, which will appear for 2 mintues. For a moderate cost, this will be made safe with goggles. The CEO will deliver a short speech beforehand to give us all some information. This is not something that can be seen everyday.
Memo from Department Head to Floor Manager:The CEO will today deliver a short speech to make the sun disappear for 2 minutes in the form of an eclipse. This is something that cannot be seen every day, so staff will meet in the car park at 10 or 11. This will be safe, if you pay a moderate cost.
Memo from Floor Manager to Supervisor:10 or 11 staff are to go to the car park, where the CEO will eclipse the sun for 2 minutes. This doesn't happen every day. It will be safe, and as usual it will cost you.
Memo from Supervisor to Staff:Some staff will go to the car park today to see the CEO disappear. It is a pity this doesn't happen every day.
This is just for some laughs =)
hope u all enjoy it =)
