Getting repaid for money you spend for company supplies
23 May 19--
There are times when a person who works for this company has to spend his
money to initiate a purchase of supplies that will be used for company
business. It's OK once in a while, but if it happens too often, then we will
have to reimburse you back alot for funds that are out of your pocket. A
limit has been placed on the amount by accounting that can be requested by an
employee for the company to repay back. You can't spend too much. Only a
certain amount can be reimbursed at one time.
There is a form that has been developed by accounting. That form must be
completed by each individual person who has money coming back to him. And it
must be completed pretty soon after the money has been spend. This is a new
policy. It's a company policy. If you wait too long, then the money will not
be repaid back to you.

Nominations
TO:
People who work for this company for an hourly wage
April 7th, 19_
It's that time again! Doesn't time seem to fly? Seems like we had the company
Christmas luncheon just last month.
Very soon, about the first day of May, members of the Employees Relations
Committee will be elected. You, the hourly wage workers of this company will
do the electing. Think about a person that you'd like to nominate. Remember:
this committee is your committee and you are represented by this commitee to
the Management Staff. So, this committee is important. We have had this for
quite a few years. Annually, ya'll elect this committee about this time every
year. Five people are elected. I have to get all the nominations in this
office just about April the 25th.
Nominate someone. Remember to vote! The election is scheduled real soon. Get
involved! Don't be a silly person and forget. Time waits for no one. In view
of the fact that workers elect this committee, it should be your voice and
represent each and everyone of you.
