This is down in Colorado Springs. Sometimes they charge, but since they're not charging for this one I thought I'd post it in case you might find it useful. Remember, you shouldn't have to pay to get hired; it's a cost of doing business that should be borne by the employer.

RE: Foul Language


It has been brought to management's attention that some individuals throughout the company have been using foul language during the course of normal conversation with their coworkers. Due to complaints received from some employees who are easily offended, this type of language will be no longer tolerated. We do, however, realize the critical importance of being able to accurately express your feelings when communicating with coworkers. Therefore, a list of new phrases has been provided so that proper exchange of ideas and information can continue in an effective manner without risk of offending our more sensitive employees.
