Subject: Disaster zone!

OMG! I said U were supposed to clean the work area last week, but that didn’t happen. A few office girls cleaned their desks, but no one cleaned the common areas, you all saw what a mess they were in!

So we’re gonna try it all over again. Our company can’t afford to hire cleaners. So I am writing to inform you that I wanna see empty wastebaskets on Friday. And the lunchroom. It’s a disaster area. You gotta throw any food left in the fridge on Friday afternoon in the trash, I don’t wanna smell that stink on Monday. And you’d better not leave any spills on the counter.

If you can’t do a better job this Friday. I will have to assign you to a specific cleaning schedule, which I don’t want to do, but you may force me don’t make me do this or I’ll be angry!
