brass balls pendantCheck out these hilarious fictitious office memos that people wish they had the heart or cojones to send, courtesy of Salon. I love the first one, from self-employed person to client. Although I think I like this “memo” best:

To: People who use the “priority” header in their outgoing email

When you set “priority” to “high” or “highest,” please do so only on the basis of the message’s likely priority to its recipient(s), not its priority to you. Taking your best guess is OK.
