Personal errands

In this company, we strongly discourage all officers from wasting their time, specially in office hours, to run personal errands like paying the electricity or phone bills, dropping off a cheque in a collection box, and so on.

If these are occasional and not daily requirements, then you are strongly encouraged to delegate these personal tasks to the office assistants (AKA peons). We would rather spend on additional office assistants to do such running around for all officers than have each officer do his own little set of stupid errands.

If there's some errand that you particularly like, then of course, please feel free to do it yourself.

Get these personal errands done through the General Services Department of our company (also called "Admin in most companies). The GenSvc Dept is there to help officers do their work and lead their lives; they serve the rest of the company. Write an email to gensvc@merceworld.com with a request to help with your errand, and they will organise it as soon as possible.
