This was sent out by my office manager (as a joke, I think). This is how we tend to view hurricanes in this part of the country. Or at least at my office.
Office Procedures Concerning Storm and Office Closings
As we watch the progress of the storm, the following are this firm's guidelines based upon the hurricane's intensity:
Hurricane Category #1 No excuse for being late. Leave earlier to give extra time to avoid fallen trees and limbs.
Hurricane Category #2 Due to the horizontal rain, you may wear jeans.
Hurricane Category #3 Whereas most of the area will be flooded we suggest you avoid wearing open toe sandals when coming to work. Canoes will be provided to get to the building safely without getting wet.
Hurricane Category #4 More than likely there will be no electricity. Given that, we will have manual typewriters available to all staff members. Please take extra caution and wear water-proof make-up if Category 4 or above.
Hurricane Category #5 Velcro will be provided to keep you attached to your chairs when the windows blow out. We will have chocolate cake at 3:00 pm in the kitchen.
Pray for those who will be in the path of Gustav and the one after it. It's been an exciting hurricane summer so far!
