Your first day at Extraordinary Work.

HR asked me to hand you this onboarding packet. HR is also me. So is IT. The sheep handles facilities.

Day One Checklist1 of 5
Onboarding
  • Confirm your email Done

    Look at you. Already crushing it, and it’s not even lunch.

  • Listen to your voicemail

    You have one new message from Ash 💀.

  • Fill out your HR intake form

    One minute. Tells me what to write so it’s actually useful to you. Take me to HR ↓

  • Read your first issue

    It’ll land in your inbox from “Ash is typing...💀” soon. Can’t wait? The archive is open.

  • Find the sheep

    Facilities is hiding somewhere on this page. He’s shy. He’s also terrible at hiding.

Form HR-1 · New Hire IntakeOptional

HR is legally not allowed to ask your age, so I didn’t. Everything here stays between you, me, and the sheep.

  1. Office hours: whenever the newsletter lands. Which is most days.
  2. Dress code: whatever you wear to read email in bed.
  3. Open door policy: hit reply on any issue. I read them all. I answer most. The rest I frame.
  4. Mail room: if I land in Promotions, drag me out. I don’t belong with the mattress coupons.
  5. Paid time off: too much Ash? Hit Email Frequency at the bottom of any email and switch to the Weekly Digest. One email, Saturdays. No questions asked. (A few questions asked.)
Baahhhhhh!
