URGENT: Memory Verification Procedures
From: Dr. Katherine Hammond | Date: November 3, 2001

ALL STAFF MUST REPORT FOR MEMORY VERIFICATION BY NOVEMBER 10TH.

Recent incidents suggest contamination between staff memories and archived subject data. Please bring the following to your appointment:

If you cannot locate these items, or if family members don't remember you as described, report to Medical Division immediately. Do not panic. This is likely temporary displacement.

Failure to attend verification will result in immediate quarantine.

Maintenance Alert: Facility Anomalies
From: Facilities Management | Date: October 25, 2001

Multiple maintenance requests involve "impossible" structural changes:

  • Rooms appearing different than blueprints
  • Sealed windows discovered behind walls
  • Elevator accessing non-existent floors
  • Electrical systems activating without power source

All maintenance staff must verify room numbers and layouts before beginning work. If a room doesn't match your expectations, STOP and contact supervisor.

Personal experience: Went to repair sink in Room 247. Found fully functional kitchen where storage closet should be. Kitchen appeared to be from 1960s. Backed out immediately. Returned with supervisor - room was storage closet again. - Mike, Maintenance

Parking and Vehicle Registration
From: Security Office | Date: October 22, 2001

Please update your vehicle registration with Security if you have:

  • Changed vehicles since initial registration
  • New license plate numbers
  • Temporary vehicles
Security Note: Parking lot cameras show vehicles from 1970s-1980s that don't belong to current staff. License plate searches return "no such vehicle" from DMV database. Investigating possible historical footage contamination.

Unauthorized vehicles will be towed at owner's expense.

Anyone else notice the blue 1967 Chevy that's been in space #23 for weeks? No current staff member owns this vehicle. Security can't locate owner. Car is always dusty but never accumulates leaves. Weird. - Security Guard Martinez

Halloween Party Planning Committee
From: Social Committee | Date: October 15, 2001

Annual Halloween party scheduled for October 31st in main cafeteria.

PARTY CANCELLED due to ongoing security concerns.

Committee members reported planning meetings where they discussed decorating rooms that don't exist. Found detailed notes about using "the blue parlor" and "the children's playroom" - neither are in our facility. Investigating where these "memories" came from.

Refunds for costume contest entry fees available at Administration.

Honestly, probably for the best. Last year's party felt "off" somehow. People kept talking about previous Halloween parties that never happened. And why did everyone remember there being a fireplace in the cafeteria? - S.C.
