david and i came into the office this evening to hear the pitiful meeps
of the nocturnal pink fuzzy things living in the office.  one of them
was sniffling about not getting its chance to go scampering about the 
empty office, due to the lights which had been left on yet again.  please,
respect these pink fuzzy things and turn off the lights when you leave.

also, our wonderful coke chairs have procured an amazing selection of 
confections for the office.  a price list shall make its way to the office
in the near future (if it hasn't already); most items are still 40 cents.
ask laura and emily if you have questions. :)  they have also procured
some wonderful tupperware to put opened boxes in (to protect said confections
from non-pink-fuzzy-creatures who have occasionally inhabited the office),
so if you do open a new box, please make sure it ends up in a tupperware
container.

also, i know you have all noticed these wonderful things called "desks"
in the office.  and some of you have undoubtedly noticed how wonderful
they are to work at.  however, if you do use these desks, *please* leave
them as you found them, and don't go rooting about unnecessarily.  when i
came in this evening, i found a christmas present i had not yet delivered
lying open on my desk.  and there was no reason anyone should have 
encountered it unless they intentionally went digging about.  please, if
you need to use an officer's desk, respect the officer's stuff...

lastly:  we sell drop poster materials.  which also means we supply the
drop cloths people paint on.  there is a huge stack of them outside our
door...please remember to insist on people using them when they paint
drop posters!  cac gets *very* upset when they see people painting on 
the floor without them.  and life is much better when cac doesn't think
we're trying to annoy them.  really. :)

okay, end of flame...now that i've vented, i feel better. :)  and thank 
you to all of you who do keep these things in mind! :)

YiLFS,
carolyn
