[Everyone] ALL HANDS: Working from home arrangements

[Jay]

You wouldn't believe how hard it is to find an Intercyber cafe on
Dartmoor. IT were completely unwilling to provide Raspberries for us
to use whilst we're on our Team Building Experential Event.

The group's been split in two and I last saw Gavin and his group 6
hours ago. My team is pushing on to the map reference where we're then
supposed to work on trust issues with collegues.

I hope you got the internal post memo yesterday that there'll be no
internal post today or Monday whilst we're busy on this team event.

It's possible that a parrot might arrive by courier today. If it gets
redirected to reception, on no account should it be signed for. It was
misordered by Visioneering. The exotic pets supplier has since told us
it has serious behavorial issues and should on no account be taken
into personal residences.
