A mandatory quarantine of Floors ♂ through ☭ is in effect due to the infestation of Class Q Plants. If you work on these floors please do not try to leave them. The elevators have been shut down and security is positioned in the stairwells with orders to stop anyone trying to leave.
Here at BlockCorp we will do everything in our power to keep from shooting you, but you did consent to being shot in the line of employment when you signed your on-boarding documents.
It's unlikely that we will have to shoot you unless you try to escape or are exhibiting symptoms of infection. Please let us know if you've been bitten by one of your coworkers, or scratched or poked by the vines now covering the building.
If you aren't infected (YAY!) please remain in your cubicle or office and continue to work as best you can. Consider this an opportunity to get caught up on any work you might have to do before the weekend.
Speaking of the weekend, it appears we will have to reschedule the Company Picnic scheduled for Saturday until after we get this zombie, plant situation under control. Bummer, I was really looking forward to Cheryl's Gluten-Free cupcakes that were such a hit last year. Cheryl, of course, was killed along with the rest of Floor ♕ in an effort to purge the building of the plant-born plague. She and her Gluten-Free cupcakes will be missed.
RIP Cheryl
BlockCorp is committed to your safety. Your management is here for you. Not literally here, I mean, we've all been evacuated to a safe zone near the Cetacean Pool. Gosh, these whales are big. I wonder if they can eat cupcakes?
If you have any questions please email us from one of the working computers. It's an inconvenience to all of us, but stay positive and focus on the plus side: anyone who survives the weekend will be eligible for double over-time!
Warmly,
Renee Nouveau
Public Relations for the
