A todos los que les ha tocado trabajar en una multinacional, han tenido que lidiar con jefes no hispano parlantes o algunos que han trabajado en otros paises. Esto seguramente les trae algun recuerdo...
"It has been brought to our attention by several officials visiting our offices, that offensive language is commonly used by our Spanish speaking staff.
Such behavior, in addition to violating our policy, is highly unprofessional and offensive to both visitors and staff. All personnel will immediately adhere to the following rules:
1.- Words like carajo, la **** madre or me pela la **** and other such expressions will not be tolerated or used for emphasis or dramatic effect, no matter how heated a discussion may become.
2.- You will not say la cage wnen someone makes a mistake, or se estan cagando en el hijue putia if you see someone being reprimended, or que cagada when a major mistake has been made. All forms and derivations of the verb cagar are utterly innapropriate and unacceptable in our environment.
3.- No project manager, section head or administrator under any circumstances will be referred as hijo de las mil ****s, mal parido, es una **** or es una bestia.
4.- Lack of determination will not be referred to as que culero, falta de huevos nor will persons who lack initiative be referred to as pelotudo, or que pendejo.
5.- Unusual or creative ideas offered by the management are not to be referred as pajas mentales or pendejadas.
6.- Do not say como hincha los huevos or que ladilla de **** if a person is persistent; do not add se lo esta llevando ****s if a colleague is going through a diffcult situation. Furthermore, you must not say la cagamos (refer to item 2) nor nos rompieron el culo when a matter becomes excessively complicated.
7.- When asking a someone to leave you alone, you must not say andate a la **** or pelame la **** nor should you ever substitute May I help you? with Que ****s quere
8.- Under no circumstances should you ever call your elderly industrial partners viejitos ****s.
9.- Do not say chupame el huevo when a relevant project is presented to you, nor should you ever answer pelamela when you assistance is required.
10.- You should never call partners cerote de **** o vieja tortillera; the sexual behavior of our staff is not to be discussed in terms such as viejo maricon or mariquita de ****.
11.- Last but no means least, after reading this note please don't say me la paso por el culo. Just keep it clean and dispose of it properly.
