Good Morning everyone and Happy March!
I would be remiss if I did not mention that St. Patrick's Day is just around the corner. The annual Chocolate Coin Hunt has officially begun. I would like to remind everyone that conscious power usage is banned in the name of fairness. Remember, if you can find the most coins before the end of the month, and present them to my office for verification, you will win the rest of the pot!
I would also like to remind everyone that alcohol is banned on premise during work hours. While we do not mind what you get up to on your down time, we should all keep in mind that SDN does require a certain level of PR while on the job, and that our actions reflect upon the company.
On that note, Corned Beef and Cabbage is also banned on premise. We do not want to blow up another break-room microwave. Please keep your leftovers at home. No one wants a repeat of the Fish Incident of '22.
I would like to take this opportunity to remind all personnel that our mandatory Mental Health Evaluations are due at the end of this month. SDN has multiple therapists on-site or covered under our offered insurance provider, so please be sure to double check their accepted insurance lists. Once you have completed your mandatory checks and tests, please report to your supervisor with the paperwork and we will have it filed shortly. I, personally, have received good endorsements from my own team towards Dr. Levitica Amato @sdn-therapy. I sincerely urge anyone that is struggling to reach out, as our hands are always outstretched to catch you when you stumble. Remember, we here at SDN care about our employees and their continued mental and emotional stability.
A hearty congratulations to our own resident Tech Specialist Ruby Pardini, and her counterpart Terry Johnson @sdn-techsupport for their combined efforts in bringing the SDN Torrence Office out of the 70's and into the 21st century. The system update was completed as of 11:00 pm PST Feburary 27th, and any bugs or glitches encountered should be forwarded to one or the other for correction. I would recommend Ruby for now, as Terry is currently sleeping off the tech hangover. I understand that it will be a bit of a learning curve for those who are used to the old operating system, but with cooperation and a steady review of the new protocols we should be able to smooth this over with minimal issues and frustration.
In other news, I would like to announce that the Angeles National Forest has begun offering unicorn hunting tags for any population control and hobbyist hunters that are interested. The herd has gotten out of control lately, and it has become increasingly dangerous for tourists to travel through the park. Anyone who is interested should drop by my office after shift end to pick up a pamphlet on the laws and ethics of controlled hunting and another on the laws and ethics of Power Hunting.
Have a happy March, and don't forget to wear green on the 17th!
