Hello, everyone.

I have recently noticed that there has been an increase in reimbursement claim forms being handed in without receipts. Some of you have been adding notes explaining what you are to be reimbursed for, but unfortunately I cannot accept them. The policy is that if you do not have a receipt, you will not be reimbursed for your expense - no exceptions.

I have also noticed that not all the forms are being filled in correctly. Please make sure to fill in your employee number as well as the type of purchase. This will make processing your claim much easier and therefore faster. So please, in the future, keep ahold of your receipts, and fill in the form completely.

NOTICE TO RESIDENTS OF GRIFFITH APARTMENTS

May 18

RE: Fire alarms

As longtime residents know, there have been occasional false fire alarms in this building over the past few years. However, the last incident, on May 8, was not a false alarm. There was, in fact, a small fire on the fourth floor. The firefighters who responded expressed concern that so few residents actually left the building in response to the alarm.

Therefore, we'd like to remind you that whenever a fire alarm sounds, you MUST immediately vacate the building using the stairs and remain outside until firefighters announce that it is safe to return. Also, if you have a disability and would require assistance getting down the stairs in such an emergency, please let us know by e-mail as soon as possible at admin@griffith.com. We will keep a list of names and unit numbers, and we will provide it to the fire department so that rescue workers know which apartments to check first.

Thank you in advance for your cooperation.

Attention: Public Notice

So that we can serve you better, Bay Avenue Metro Station will be closed from June 13 to June 20 for major renovations. New arrival and departure screens, a state-of-the-art communications system, and LED lighting will be installed, among many other improvements.

Please be prepared to take alternative means of transportation during that time. There will be a free shuttle bus service from Bay Avenue Station's east entrance to Woodland Station, which will remain operating. Note that due to extra crowding at other stations during the shutdown, as well as heavier-than-usual traffic due to construction on Bay Avenue, commuters should allow for an additional 15-30 minutes to get to their destinations, especially during peak hours.

This will be the first in a series of station shutdowns as the City Transit Authority upgrades the city's busiest subway line. We will keep you informed, and we apologize for any inconvenience.

Re: New data center

As you may know, because of our company's rapid growth, we have been building a new data center to host our intranet, databases, and business applications. [1] Today I am pleased to announce that the facility will be up and running this Thursday, November 6. The superior processing power of the new data center will greatly improve the performance, security, and reliability of the website as well as our intranet. [2]

However, migrating all of our data to the new equipment will involve briefly taking the entire system offline. [3] The process will begin on Thursday at 3:00 p.m., so employees (other than IT staff) will be free to leave work at that time. We are confident that we can finish the process before 9:00 the following morning so that the workday can proceed as usual. However, we will notify you if that changes. If you have any questions or concerns, please direct them to me at hcontreras@yourhome.com, or call extension 4846. [4]

NOTICE

Attention, all staff members.

Sometime between January 10 and 25, there will be a surprise inspection from the government agency that is responsible for worker health and safety. We must be ready at any time for this visit. We ask that all employees make sure to tidy up their stations and to keep their sections of the conveyor belt spotlessly clean. Please also make sure that all clutter is cleared away from around all machinery. If you have any extra parts that you are hoarding, please return unused and unnecessary parts to the warehouse.

Thank you for your cooperation.

RE: Travel expenses

A great deal of employee travel is scheduled for the coming weeks. Therefore, the accounting department would like to clarify company policy regarding reimbursement for hotel stays and per diem.

Hotels: Our support staff are instructed to book and pre-pay hotel rooms for employees within a standard price limit, which depends on the city and the season of travel. For example, the limit for this month's MBA convention in Springfield is $200 per night. If you wish to reserve a more expensive hotel, you must pay the difference yourself.

Per diem: Per diem is meant to cover food and other small expenses while traveling. It is a fixed amount per day and varies according to the city. For one-day trips with no overnight stay, employees receive 75% of the standard per diem. For example, here are the per diem amounts for a trip to Springfield:

Standard per diem: $80 per day

One-day trip (no overnight stay): $60

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask.
