Mason Blake - Best Contingency 2009
FCA Global Recruitment - April 08
Here's something that we picked up from Dealbreaker. It's about mom and pop and apple pie. Oh shucks.

The e-mail invite detailed below is said to have been sent by Citi's Global Marketing Department to a number of (good ol') folk in Community Relations, Corporate Comms and Women & Co, inviting them to an International Fall Potluck Lunch.

'All,

We are inviting you to celebrate this fall season with us by holding an International Fall Potluck Lunch on Wednesday, October 21st from 12:00 to 2:00pm.

Our many successes highlighted in the recent Connection newsletter are a source of joint celebration, and we thought it was time we got together again. Please bring & share your favorite home cooking for a chance at the best dish prize.

We will have:

• Best decorated pumpkin contest

• Best cooked dish

• Guess the number of seeds in a jar and more

We'd like each of the 4 groups (Community Relations, Corporate Communications, Global Marketing and Women & Co) to bring a decorated pumpkin to the potluck which will then be evaluated by a panel of experts who will decide who deserves a prize!

Location: Conference Rooms A & B as well as the Open/Common Area.

Please sign up - the sign up sheets for the different dishes will be in the open/common area etc.

Please join us in this celebration as we will take this time to enjoy good food, fun games, great colleagues and a wonderful season to come!

From all of us in the Global Marketing Department'

Surely, they forgot: 

- guess the number of years it will take to repay the US taxpayer if Citi staff are having 2 hour lunch breaks, trying to work out how many seeds there are in a jar! ? Pass the sick bag, Alice.
