HP Puts Out Memo To Help Its' Employees Avoid Geese Attacks While Visiting Idaho Office

Hewlett-Packard has enough problems dealing with angry shareholders without having to deal with angry geese.

A visitor to the tech giant's Boise, Idaho, office recently had an altercation with a pissed-off goose that was serious enough that officials decided to address the problem with a memo titled "Boise Site Communication: Avoiding Geese Attacks."

Hewlett-Packard spokesman Michael Thacker acknowledged the memo and told The Huffington Post it was sent out as a preventive measure after a visitor to the Boise office "had a run-in with a goose."

There has been no fowl play since then, but officials didn't want any more feathers flying, so they sent out a memo April 10 to HP's Boise employees.

If it came right down to it, you could kick them silly, but why are they so cranky?
