You Can’t Be Serious…

I mean, I love Michael Jackson and all, but this is absurd. The following email was sent to all City & County of San Francisco employees this morning. For the record, I gotta say that I had absolutely no interest in watching the MJ memorial today, but apparently plenty of others did…

Colleagues:

I have been advised by DT that due to the large number of City employees watching the Michael Jackson services on their work computers, our internet capacity has reached the saturation point. Please immediately remind all employees that City computers are to be used for City business only. Not only does such activity violate City policies, it interferes with employees’ ability to do the work for which they are compensated, and interferes with our ability to access the network for the conduct of legitimate City business. Prohibitions against improper use of City resources, including computers, are included in both the departmental Statements of Incompatible Activities and the CCSF Employee Handbook. Violations may lead to discipline.

Than you in advance for your cooperation.

Micki Callahan
Human Resources Director
City and County of San Francisco
