Title: Sustainability Challenge Permanently On-Hold
Staff, we want to inform the office that while we pride ourselves on sustainability and limiting waste, in light of the consequences at the last Finish the Leftovers in the Company Fridge Challenge, all future challenges have been put permanently on-hold. We still encourage our employees to limit the amount of waste they create and for office management staff to prevent over-purchasing foods for office events. However, the attempt to eat foods left in the fridge for unknown periods of time can be hazardous. According to the county coroner, the amount of shellfish involved in the most recent challenge led to a "certain and obvious amount of risk to personal welfare". We want to pass along our gratitude to those that tended to the ill or dying in what we were told was a very difficult time, with the amount of vomiting being "unprecedented". The hospital has informed us that with dialysis most of the workers admitted will be completely fine and should maintain a "respectable standard of living". And we are all comforted to know Carl, this past Challenge's victor, died doing what he loved most.
