The following was an email I received from one of my girlfriends who is a stewardess for Avionca. If you speak some Spanish you will get the full meaning of some of the rules. I thought it was hilarious, so I am sharing it with you. They take these rules very seriously!
reglas para hispanos en empresas americanas
BUENISIMO!!!!
Este MEMO fue enviado por una empresa norteamericana a todos sus
empleados de habla hispana en Miami (Cubanos )
To: All Spanish Employees Several visitors to our office have brought
to our attention that our Spanish-speaking employees commonly use offensive
language. Such behavior, in addition to violating firm practices, is highly
unprofessional, offensive both to visitors and employees, and will not be
tolerated. Therefore, we have decided to implement a series of rules in our
office and would expect them to be applied.
It is expected that ALL employees immediately adhere to these rules:
1- Words like coņo, carajo and other such expressions will not be
used for emphasis, no matter how heated the discussion may get.
2- Non important matters should not be addressed to as pendejadas.
3- You will not say la cagó when someone makes a mistake, or se cagó en
su madre if you see someone being reprimended. All forms and derivatives
of the word cagar are inappropriate in our environment.
4- Lack of determination will not be referred to as falta de cojones
or mariconerias, nor will a person with lack of initiative be referred to
as pendejo, mamao or comemierda.
5- No Manager or Supervisor, under any circumstances, will be referred
to as hijo de puta, ese cabron, or ese maricon.
6- When a good proposal is presented, the term esto esta de pinga
must not be used.
7- Unusual or creative brainstorming meetings will not be referred to
as pajas mentales.
8- Do not say como jode if a person is persistent, or se jodio if
somebody is going through a difficult situation. Furthermore, you must not
say que jodienda, or esto esta del coņo when matters become complicated in
your line of work.
9- When asking someone to leave you alone, you should not say vete
pa'l carajo, nor will you substitute ?que carajo quieres? for "may I help
you?".
10- When leaving the office, using the term me voy pa'l carajo is not
proper.
11- When any office equipment fails, it must be reported as "it broke
down", not se descojono, or se jodio la mierda esta.
12- Last but not least, after reading this memo, please do not say me
voy a limpiar el culo con esto. Just keep it clean and file properly.
Thank you for your cooperation.
