Open letter to Peyton PHlace....

Dear upper management at Peyton PHlace,

Every single email I get from you insists that I "go green" and print less....

I can understand that edict...

I rarely use your printers....

So when I received your recent email with an attached "newsy" brochure, I read it - on-line....

It was semi-interesting....

But, can you tell me why you felt the need to place a hard copy of that same brochure in my company mail box today?

And not just my mail box - but the mailbox of every f-in employee at this campus????

There were twelve - count 'em 12, pages of full color "news" printed on glossy card stock paper....

Not easily recyclable...

How green is that????

I am not a tree hugger per se...

But - for the love of God...practice what you preach!!!!


And thanks for sending the Benefits Enrollment Brochure to my home this week as well...

Thanks for assuming that I may have had a lil trouble reading that full color brochure on-line....

And for assuming that I am probably not technically literate enough to know how to "Print" a page or two had I really wanted a hard copy...

And for assuming I would not pick it up from my office mailbox ('cuz it was there,too)....

I bet if you had not had that printed you would not have had to up my benefits' rates 14%....

Could you at least offer a paper opt-out plan for this shit????

I hear your constant droning on about how we need to cut costs....

I understand...

I am trying to do that myself.....

Of course, I am pretty sure there was not a lot of cost cutting practiced at your week long management meeting in Europe....

Or at the week-long sales meeting in Orlando (er... Disney World)  earlier this year....

But I digress....

Just Go Green!

Note to my readers: This letter seemed to be the least self-destructive action of all those I concocted to let Peyton PHlaCe know how I feel on this subject...
