Subject: eBay internal communication - Talking at desks- Please read

It has come to my attention that several employees are talking at their desks during scheduled work hours. I must convey the importance of NOT talking at your desk, or to your desk partner. Talking greatly decreases work productivity, and company morale.

If you need to talk to someone, please schedule a meeting room where you can talk, or use the break rooms. If you are caught talking at your desk, you will be escorted into a meeting room and questioned as to why you are talking, and if it is relevant to your job. If not, you may be subjected to disciplinary actions.

We want you to work hard at eBay, and enjoy your work. Please contact management if you have any questions.

Thank you,

Jody Rivers
Safeharbor Manager.

not me no. But it's from a site called internal memos, it's linked in my first post. Basically people take internal memos and send them to this site who then posts them online :)

You ask me, that memo sounds like it's bogus.

In this day in age no one would be stupid enough to post a memo like that.

Or stoopid enough to work for a boss like that IMO... if they did that to me i would tell em to shove it and go pick up cans on side of the road before i listen to that sh!t.
