  [21] “Glitter in all of its forms is entirely prohibited on the premises of 50 Thousand Consulting.

  [24] “The vaults of 50 Thousand Consulting are well-known to house secret, powerful, and downright legendary items. These are rumored to include the Blackbeard’s treasure, Oliver Cromwell’s head, the entire lost city of Atlantis, a copy of the unreleased third installment of a popular video game, and the Ark of the Covenant.

For this reason, the phrase ‘looking for group’ is banned on company property.” - 50 Thousand Ex-Employee Handbook, Page 893 (Assets)

  [28] “—so long as it can without material injury to itself. It also can be…wait. You stopped reading already? Come on, I got dressed up and organized just for you. Dammit, Andy, you ungrateful little—” - The Cornucopia Employee Handbook, Page 477 (Your Car and You)

  [29] “The use of serving patters to commit acts of violence is strictly prohibited. Not because violence itself is prohibited, but because people eat off of those. That’s nasty. You’re nasty.” – Cornucopia Handbook, Page 344 (Violence in the Workplace)
