There's a story here somewhere...

Just got a friendly "TO: Everybody" email about mailing things from the office. Item 1 reminded us that the deadline to drop mail in the mail room is 4:00 PM, M-F. Item 2 reminded us that the post office picks up from the mailbox out back at 4:30 PM, M-F. The third item dealt with personal mail:
Metering your PERSONAL mail is a COURTESY and not a company requirement. As always, your payment should accompany your personal mail unless you’ve communicated otherwise. With that being said, please place your mail in the appropriate outgoing tray before 4PM. NOTE: If your personal mail happens to include renewal subscriptions to any pornographic magazines, materials, and suchlike, please make sure you take care of that on your own personal time!
I really want to know what inspired that note but the receptionist isn't talking.

Here's the story:
One of the Senior VP's realized that his Playboy subscription was about to expire and decided to have the company pick up the tab. After all, he works long hours and needs a pick me up on occasion, but rather than point out the schmuck that is using company funds to pay for his porn (being a VP and all) they decided to scold everyone just to cover the tracks.
