    It has been brought to the management's attention that some individuals throughout the company have been using foul language during the course of normal conversation with coworkers.
    Due to complaints received from some employees who may be easily offended, this type of language will no longer be tolerated.
    We do however, realize the critical importance of being able to accurately express your feelings when communication with coworkers.
