R U the one?

	  What's happened to the red hand trucks?  
	They're supposed to be returned to the same place so 
	people don't have to look all over the building to 
	find one.
	  I don't want to resort to silly security measures 
	if I can avoid it.  But if people continue to take our
	red hand trucks for joy rides without the decency 
	of returning them to their home, I'll have to chain 
	them to the wall or ask you to write your name on a list
	everytime you need to use one!

Those handtrucks

(2 / 3)


	Yeh, well I finally found those missing handtrucks (BOTH of them).
I again heard someone was looking for them (they hadn't been returned yet),
and being a person who knows how frustrating it is not being able to locate at
least ONE of them (We have two, plenty to go around). So I decide to
investigate. I searched the entire company until I finally came across BOTH of
them sitting in TENGENs common area (unattended). I guess the last user just
figured the finders-keepers rule applied. I guess the last user just figured 
their job was done. However, they were Incorrect. These handtrucks are of major
importance to all of us and so it is rather important that they be returned to
where they belong when not in use. That way, whoever needs them can use them
when necessary. It's really simple. This rule even is extended to the person
or persons that violated that premise in this case. However, if this is not
acceptable, I urge those persons to please purchase thier own, and leave ours
to our use. They are only $189 (plus tax & license). Its not much, and I'm sure
your boss would be happy to cough up the dough. OR, you can go ahead and use
ours. All you have to do is BRING THEM BACK TO WHERE YOU FOUND THEM WHEN
YOUR DONE.


				Easy wasn't it

Those Handtrucks (once and for all?)

(3 / 3)


This is to just clarify that the hand trucks left in the Tengen Common
area were left there by an Atari employee.  This person was obviously
in too much of a hurry to complete a job they started, theyforgot to follow
up on any of it, leaving the handtrucks and the rest of their equipment
for someone else to take care of.  It would seem a rule that we should
have all learned in our early childhood applies here; "Always pick up
after yourself, and put things back where you got them from!".  I'm
sorry for the inconvience that this may have caused folks on all sides,
and hope that something has been learned by all of this.
