Every workplace has it own quirks, where I am now, this is a fairly high volume of company spam email.

While one expects things like the occasional notice of a blood drive or a United Way Campaign, one gets 2-10 emails here a day that are sent to the whole place.

These are things like:

• Equipment that they want to give away for someone to take home.
• Equipment that they want to give to another lab.
• Petty cash status
• Sales pitches for the health club they have in the basement.
• Sales pitches for massages available through said health club.
• Requesting volunteers to provide samples for testing to validate processes.

This time, it’s gone a bit odd. They are offering $20.00 for a stool sample.

It’s just a very odd thing to see first thing Monday Morning.

In any case, they get nothing from me. I must protect my purity of essence.
